THE GAMING INDUSTRY
The gaming industry which is a huge chunk of the global economy has gained a lot of stakeholders over the years with more players engaging in online games on smartphones and tablets.

THE CHALLENGES IN THE CURRENT GAMING INDUSTRY
However, the gaming industry is faced with a couple of challenges which are not favorable or debilitating to players’ experience as well as the experience of other stakeholders(Publishers, Developers and Marketers).
Most games played online only have the single player feature in which case there is no competition with other players. Here the only competition is when the player compares his score to meet or beat the highest score on the leader board which does not give players the competitive experience they so desire to improve their playing skills.
Additionally, Most games played are not monetized for players such that players can earn while playing a downloaded game or streaming live play online. This is not an encouragement as players get worn out when there is no reward in real value for players as this is a major concern for players.
Also, it is quite hard purchasing virtual goods needed to boost the gaming experience on players for a particular game as most games do not give rewards that can be used to purchase these virtual goods to players and in some cases, certain games require fiat currencies to purchase these virtual goods which are often deal breakers to players.
Similarly, some rewards from a particular game cannot be used on all games in a gaming platform which means players have to earn rewards to be used on a different game. These activities are often too expensive for players who only want boost or improve his gaming experience by utilizing his game resources.
Other stakeholders in the gaming industry such as developers, publishers and marketers are often faced with the challenge of expensive fee in publishing and marketing their games on gaming platforms and in some cases some gaming platforms does not accept games form third party developers to be listed on their platforms and also the challenge of attracting more customers to play newly developed games pose a major concern to the stakeholders as players are gradually losing interest in the current gaming system as a result of lack of trust and empty promises by most developers.
With these challenges in the gaming industry, it is however imperative to proffer a lasting solution to better improve users’ experience.
