The global core gaming gear market is experiencing rapid growth, driven by the rise of eSports, streaming culture, and the increasing professionalism of gaming. High-performance peripherals such as gaming mice, keyboards, and headsets are in demand for their precision, responsiveness, and durability. Influencers on platforms like Twitch and YouTube Gaming inspire audiences to invest in the same gear, pushing market growth. Technological advancements including sensor innovation, haptic feedback, wireless tech, and AI-driven features are elevating user experiences. Gen Z and Millennials favor wireless, multi-device gear with customizable aesthetics and sustainable materials. A key emerging trend is the integration of AI and machine learning, allowing devices to auto-adjust settings based on games or player behavior, setting a new benchmark in intelligent gaming peripherals.
The core gaming gear market is intensely competitive, with brands like Logitech, SteelSeries, and HyperX dominating select niches but unable to control broader trends. This fragmentation fuels innovation but limits pricing power. A growing challenge is the proliferation of counterfeit products, especially through unregulated online channels. Consumer preferences are shifting toward premium, high-performance gear offering responsive controls, immersive audio, and ergonomic comfort. Smart peripherals are on the rise, with companies like Razer introducing AI-enabled headsets that adjust settings dynamically, translate voice chats, and enhance gameplay—highlighting the growing demand for intelligent, adaptive gaming experiences.
New Product Development in the Gaming Accessories Market
October 31, 2024 – CORSAIR has introduced the K70 PRO TKL keyboard, which integrates the advanced MGX magnetic switch technology into a competitive tenkeyless form factor. Equipped with cutting-edge features such as FlashTap and Rapid Trigger, the K70 PRO TKL is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of competitive gaming.
March 11, 2025 – CORSAIR announced the launch of CORSAIR Custom Lab in Europe. This new initiative enables European gamers to create personalized gaming peripherals that reflect their tastes and styles.
Gaming Headsets Evolve as Essential Tools for Immersive Play and Competitive Edge
Gaming headsets have become a cornerstone of the gaming peripherals ecosystem, propelled by the demand for immersive audio, real-time communication in multiplayer games, and professional-grade sound for eSports and streaming. High-performance headsets equipped with noise-cancelling microphones, low-latency connections, and voice-enhancing audio are now essential for competitive gaming environments. For instance, the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro is a top choice among professionals, renowned for its precise sound imaging and AI-driven noise cancelation.
With modern gamers frequently switching between platforms like PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and mobile devices, the market has seen a surge in universal, multi-device compatible headsets. This trend has spurred innovations in plug-and-play functionality and advanced wireless connectivity. Aesthetic features like RGB lighting, swappable ear cups, detachable microphones, and customizable ear tags have become highly desirable—particularly among streamers who value both performance and visual appeal on camera.
Technological and ergonomic advancements are transforming gaming headsets into sophisticated, user-centric devices. Cutting-edge models now offer virtual 7.1 surround sound, AI-powered noise suppression, ultra-low latency wireless performance, and customizable EQ settings. These features are enhancing the audio experience and solidifying headsets as a critical component in competitive and recreational gaming alike.
APAC Emerges as a Hotspot for Core Gaming Equipment Growth
The Asia-Pacific (APAC) region is rapidly becoming one of the most dynamic markets for core gaming equipment, driven by expanding digital infrastructure, a booming esports ecosystem, and a young, tech-savvy population. Key markets including China, India, South Korea, Japan, Vietnam, and Indonesia are fueling growth across various gaming peripheral segments, each reflecting distinct user behaviors and preferences.
Esports events like the League of Legends World Championships and the Honor of Kings Pro League, particularly in South Korea and China, are influencing consumer trends and pushing demand for professional-grade peripherals. While PC gaming dominates in South Korea and Japan, mobile gaming is on the rise in India, Vietnam, and Indonesia, creating strong demand for cross-platform gear such as Bluetooth headsets, mobile-compatible mice, and compact mechanical keyboards.
A digitally native youth population across APAC, especially in emerging economies, is heavily influenced by streamers and social media. This trend is accelerating the adoption of trendy, influence-endorsed gaming gear, making the region a vital driver of innovation and demand in the global gaming peripherals market.

Hailey Bieber sells makeup brand Rhode to Elf Beauty in US$1 billion deal
Hailey Bieber attends The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute benefit gala celebrating the opening of the "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" exhibition on Monday, May 5, 2025, in New York. (Photo by Evan Agostini/Invision/AP) Model Hailey Bieber's makeup and skincare brand, Rhode, is being snapped up by Elf Beauty for about US$1 billion, giving the budget cosmetic retailer access to a celebrity-endorsed product line that has become hugely popular among Gen Z and millennials. Elf said on Wednesday it would pay Rhode shareholders $800 million in a combination of cash and stock and an additional potential earnout consideration of $200 million subject to certain performance-related conditions. Last month, Reuters reported that Bieber was exploring a sale of the brand, which could be worth more than $1 billion. For Elf, the deal would mark a shift in strategy and expand into the prestige beauty market as the company faces weak demand from mass market customers who are being pressured by persistent high inflation. 'The Rhode deal is a bold move for e.l.f. into premium beauty at a time when the prestige side of the industry has lost some of its momentum as a result of consumers buying less or trading down,' said Sky Canaves, eMarketer analyst. However, Rhode has bucked this trend, Canaves added, with a strong Gen Z following and significant buzz around its product launches, positioning it well for a strong expansion. Elf — short for eyes, lips and face — offers products priced as low as $2 at U.S. retailers including Walmart WMT.N, Ulta Beauty ULTA.O and Target TGT.N. On the other hand, Rhode — which launched in 2022 and gained popularity with TikTok viral products such as its $18 'peptide lip treatments' — sells exclusively through its own website or pop-up stores, relying heavily on Hailey Bieber's social media influence. 'e.l.f. Beauty marks an incredible opportunity to elevate and accelerate our ability to reach more of our community with even more innovative products and widen our distribution globally,' Bieber said. The company raked in about $212 million in sales for the year ended March 31 and is planning to start selling at Sephora stores across the U.S. and Canada coming this fall, followed by the UK. 'Rhode further diversifies our portfolio with a fast-growing brand that makes the best of prestige accessible,' Elf CEO Tarang Amin said in a statement. Earlier this year, Elf's shares cratered 20% after the company cut its annual forecasts and warned of weakening demand. Elf's deal with Rhode would mark its biggest acquisition to date and follows its $355 million acquisition of skincare company Natrium in 2023. Bieber will continue her role as founder and will also act as a 'strategic advisor' after the deal closes. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of fiscal 2026. Separately, Elf on Wednesday refrained from providing a fiscal 2026 forecast due to uncertainty surrounding import tariffs despite beating Wall Street expectations for fourth-quarter sales. The company, which sources about 75% of its products from China, down from 100% back in 2019, said last week it would raise prices by $1 to combat tariff pressure. Shares of Elf were down about 1% after the bell. (Reporting by Anuja Bharat Mistry and Neil J Kanatt in Bengaluru; Editing by Alan Barona)

Young people, newcomers fuel new debt growth: TransUnion report
A Visa card is seen in Portland, Ore., Wednesday, May 15, 2024. AP Photo / Jenny Kane The latest TransUnion debt report shows total debt continued to grow in the first quarter compared with the year before, driven mainly by young people and newcomers. The credit-tracking agency says gen Z consumers saw their outstanding balances grow 30.6 per cent from the prior year. The report says total outstanding debt grew 4.7 per cent to $2.5 trillion in the first quarter year-over-year. Delinquencies, or missed payments, were also up 11 basis points year-over-year to 2.7 per cent — mainly driven by new-to-credit consumers. The report also shows subprime consumers continued to struggle as their delinquency rates rose at significantly higher rates than prime and above-prime consumers. Matt Fabian, director of financial services research at TransUnion Canada, says higher balances from high-risk credit consumers signal a critical moment for lenders to reassess risk strategies. This report by The Canadian Press was first published May 28, 2025. Ritika Dubey, The Canadian Press
