Thai Government Pushes Game Industry Towards Global Market, Aiming to Generate Over 270 Million Baht

The Thai government is implementing a strong initiative to advance its domestic game industry into the international market. As part of this strategy, the "gamescom asia × Thailand Game Show" scheduled for 2026 is seen as a crucial leverage point, with the aim of generating economic value exceeding 270 million baht (approximately 1 billion JPY). This effort is intended to accelerate the growth of Thailand's digital content industry as a whole and enhance its international competitiveness. The government is expected to strengthen support for game developers and related companies and implement policies to facilitate access to overseas markets. Thailand's game market has experienced rapid growth in recent years, with increasing investment from both domestic and international sources. The current government-led strategy aims to further accelerate this momentum and establish Thailand as a hub for the game industry in Asia. Source: MGR Online (Politics)
