FWD Life Insurance offers an insurance plan for gamers, making it the first in the country!
On October 12, 2023, in Manila, Philippines, we find a rapidly growing gaming market with 43 million active online gamers. A 2021 YCP Solidiance study highlights steady 13% yearly growth, solidifying the Philippines as one of Southeast Asia’s most vibrant markets.
The heart of the Philippine esports community is its Filipino workforce, primarily comprised of Gen Zs and millennials aged 25-34. Surprisingly, a significant portion of gamers falls within the 55 and above age group. Notably, esports has gained immense popularity, with Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) at the forefront, boasting more than 5.4 million daily users as of August 2023.
Yet, as gaming’s popularity surges, it brings a surge in health-related concerns. Issues like repetitive stress injuries disrupted sleep patterns, and even chronic mental health problems are becoming more prevalent among gamers.
