The global e-sports market size will grow from $1.41 billion in 2022 to $1.63 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.1%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term.

Match-fixing has always been a major challenge in the E-sports industry. Match-fixing in E-sports is when a player intentionally loses to win a bet.

The number of suspicious betting cases discovered by the E-sports Integrity Commission, the industry authority in charge of anti-corruption efforts, has increased to 117 in the first 11 months of 2020, from 46 in 2019.

The global recreation market grew from $1,443.83 billion in 2022 to $1,900.67 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 31.6%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The recreation market is expected to grow to $2,194.09 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 3.7%. The recreation market growth is aided by stable economic growth forecasted in many developed and developing countries.

For instance, India's GDP grew by 7.2%, whereas China registered a GDP growth of 6.0% in 2020. Stable economic growth is expected in end-user markets, thereby driving the market during the forecast period. This continued economic growth is expected to increase investments in the end-user markets and be a driver of the recreation market as greater affluence allows consumers to visit recreation centers. The outbreak of COVID-19 disease (COVID-19) has acted as a massive restraint on the recreation market in 2020 as governments globally imposed lockdowns and restricted domestic and international travel limiting the need for services offered by these establishments. COVID-19 is an infectious disease with flu-like symptoms including fever, cough, and difficulty in breathing. The virus was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China, and spread globally including Western Europe, North America, and Asia. Steps by national governments to contain the transmission have resulted in the closure of recreational facilities such as amusement parks, museums, and casinos with countries entering a state of 'lockdown' and the outbreak hurt businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021. However, it is expected that the recreation market will recover from the shock across the forecast period as it is a 'black swan event and not related to ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy.
