Market Opportunities

Deployment of AI Technology in Cloud Games – The deployment of AI technology into the cloud gaming market presents a significant opportunity for players to innovate and capitalize on emerging technologies. For example, at CES 2025, Dead Meat was shown running in real-time on a GeForce RTX 50 Series GPU, generating dialogue locally for the very first time. The addition of Artificial Intelligence into cloud gaming allows gameplay innovation, along with enhancing server performance and user experience. Companies are encouraged by the benefits of integrating AI in cloud gaming and, therefore, focus on developing AI-integrated products.

Moreover, the Vietnamese Government is also supporting the development of AI by offering collaboration opportunities to private players for funding and other expansion objectives. In 2024, NVIDIA signed an agreement with the Vietnamese government to establish its new Vietnam Research and Development Center focused on AI. The company is going to use the RD center to focus on software development, capitalizing on the country’s strong talent pool of STEM engineers, and to engage industry leaders, startups, government agencies, universities, and students to accelerate the adoption of AI. This shift toward AI-enhanced gaming experiences creates a wealth of opportunities for businesses and developers looking to tap into the future of cloud gaming.

Vietnam Cloud Gaming Industry Prime Challenge

Data Privacy Security Concerns Restricting Market Growth – As cloud gaming platforms handle sensitive user data, concerns over data privacy and cybersecurity are heightened. The country is considered the most cyber-attacked nations in Southeast Asia. As per the Vietnam Cyber Security Summary Report, in 2023, the nation encountered more than 13,900 cyberattacks, with the data reaching a cumulative 83,000 in the past five years. Among them, the most vulnerable industries included the financial, energy, and tech sectors. Such threats are resulting in increased cybersecurity laws, which in turn, make it challenging for the market players to expand their products in the country.

The Cloud Gaming Market in Vietnam is completely captured by foreign entities. The local players are still unable to tap the market potential, due to which most of the foreign game developers are ruling the cloud gaming industry. However, ensuring compliance with local data protection laws and maintaining user trust are ongoing challenges. Ensuring compliance with relevant regulations that are being developed frequently, owing to data security concerns, keeps the market from growing to its full potential. For instance, Vietnam is going to bring into effect a new data security law, “Law on Data”, in July 2025. The law aims to govern digital content-related activities alongside the existing Personal Data Protection Decree (PDPD).

Additionally, addressing piracy concerns related to data privacy and protecting intellectual property rights is complex and time-consuming. Therefore, data security issues are causing difficulty in achieving consumers’ trust, and various regulations are hindering the expansion of foreign cloud gaming players. This will eventually restrict the market growth in the forecasted period.
