The cloud gaming industry, also referred to as gaming on demand, is a form of web gaming that allows users to stream games directly onto their personal computers, mobile devices, or consoles.

It allows users to play games online without downloading or purchasing the software. The user can also view another player's game through live video streaming through cloud gaming experiences on smart devices. It aims to provide end-users with a smooth and direct gaming experience on a variety of different devices.
