The "Tabletop Games Market - Global Outlook & Forecast 2025-2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The Tabletop Games Market was valued at USD 19.50 billion in 2024, and is projected to reach USD 34.10 billion by 2030, rising at a CAGR of 9.76%.

The global tabletop games market is experiencing intense competition, driven by an influx of independent vendors and evolving consumer preferences.

These independent players are leveraging creative designs, low production costs, and family-oriented game concepts to carve out their niches.

MARKET TRENDS & DRIVERS

Shift Toward Sustainable & Eco-Friendly Practices

Consumers are increasingly choosing eco-friendly products, including tabletop games, as concerns over environmental issues such as climate change, deforestation, and plastic pollution. This shift is prompting companies to rethink how they design, produce, and market their games, focusing on sustainability. Many manufacturers in the tabletop games market are now turning to sustainable materials, such as biodegradable plastics, recycled paper, and certified wood, to reduce their environmental impact.

Companies such as HABA Familygroup are using certified sustainable wood and non-toxic paints, while CMON is opting for biodegradable plastics for their game pieces. Stonemaier Games is cutting down on plastic by using recycled paper for game boards and packaging. Blue Orange Games is replacing plastic packaging with recycled cardboard, and Days of Wonder is ensuring responsible sourcing with FSC-certified paper. These changes are helping to minimize waste and promote a circular economy in the tabletop game industry.

Growing Number of Tabletop Game Cafes

Tabletop game cafes are becoming a key part of the growing tabletop games market. These cafes offer a social space where people can enjoy games, food, and drinks while connecting with others who share the same interests. They host events such as game nights and tournaments to help build a community of tabletop game enthusiasts and create a friendly environment for newcomers. These cafes allow customers to try out a variety of games, including new releases and lesser-known titles, making it easier for people to discover new games without having to buy them. This lowers the barrier to entry for new players and encourages more frequent gaming.

The rise of tabletop game cafes is contributing to industry growth by attracting more customers, increasing game sales, and expanding the community. Family-friendly cafes, such as Gamehaus Cafe in Los Angeles and AU BONHEUR DES JEUX in Paris, make it easier for people of all ages to enjoy gaming together. With more cafes opening in 2024, this trend is helping to grow the tabletop game market further.
