According to analysts, the continued gaming growth will result in a greater need for qualified workers. As reported by The Indian Express, according to a survey by TeamLease Digital, the gaming industry is anticipated to expand by another 20% – 30% and create 100,000 new jobs directly and indirectly by FY23 in fields like game engineering and design.

This indicates that the sector is working extra hard to guarantee a consistent supply of qualified individuals by establishing its institutions and collaborating with the administration and universities.

Establishing Training Academies

According to its chief executive Manvendra Shukul, Lakshya Digital, one of India’s oldest game design firms, is striving to independently establish training academies and launch trial initiatives with the National Skills Development Council.

He remarked that to reach a bigger audience; we are striving to establish “train the trainer” schools. Lakshya is also in discussions with several colleges about incorporating some of the necessary skills into their curricula so that graduates only require a little further training before being able to begin working. The global gaming business faces a skills gap since it needs 70,000 engineers globally. He claimed that developing skilled labor is crucial to luring more foreign game development firms to India.

According to Rajan Navani, Chairman of the gaming and digital entertainment company JetSynthesys, the possibility of making a career in the gaming industry has multiplied in recent years. In addition to the effort that goes into making the game, Navani said the expansion of e-sports has created possibilities that weren’t there a few years ago in fields including infrastructure development & maintenance and also on the development side. Currently, most businesses have their own internal staff training and development programs. The training institution at Lakshya has been operating for roughly ten years. According to Navani, there is a chance to teach and skill more individuals because this industry is now in great demand for talent. By FY24, the industry will employ nearly 200,000 individuals, according to TeamLease research.

The Government’s Support to Gaming Industry

Even the government fully supports the Indian gaming business and has announced the creation of a new task force called the “AVGC” in this year’s Union Budget. Moreover, a new task force has been formed to address the global demand for visual effects, animations, games, and the comic book business.

Indian businesses in the region would therefore be able to explore at minimum 5% of the $800m market and create new jobs annually. A new curriculum framework will be built for graduation, postgraduate, and doctorate courses in AVGC-related subjects, skill-building projects will be developed in cooperation with major universities, and job prospects will be enhanced as a result of this campaign.

This technique will enhance the position of the Indian AVGC industry in the global marketplaces. With this action, the government recognizes the gaming sector’s huge growth potential, its capacity to generate employment, and its ability to promote game brands created under the “Make in India” initiative globally.

What are the different career options in gaming industry?

Artists manage the graphical aspects of video games. They play important roles in gaming and are experts in the 3D, concept, and UI areas. On websites like Artstation and Behance, they commonly create a portfolio and share it.

According to market trends, game developers and designers with two to three years’ expertise may take between five and seven lakh rupees annually. Depending on your knowledge and expertise, this can change dramatically. Also, there are many chances for independent contractors. Based on domestic or international assignments, freelancers can make between Rs 10 to 15 lakhs per year.

Designing

An essential job function in the gaming industry is game design. The game designer’s responsibilities are the arrangement of items in games and the design of the various stages. Presently, several Indian institutions offer the training required for potential game creators. However, particularly in console gaming knowledge, India still needs more people with the necessary skill sets for these jobs. However, it is anticipated that India will quickly emerge as a talent hotspot for console and mobile game production.

Gaming Industry - Game Designing

QA

Quality Assurance positions are another promising career path that might be considered. During the game creation process, this division is responsible for testing the games. The builds are delivered to the team for testing at each step of the development to find faults and guarantee that changes are implemented before the following phases of development are finished. Following an analysis, the developers and designers strive to fix the problems and produce an update.

Game Marketing

The gaming industry offers job opportunities in marketing as well. For example, you can work as a product marketer, using numerous marketing techniques and channels to advertise the game or product. Another option is to assume the hat of a Studio Marketer, who runs the department in charge of hiring with the express objective of advertising the studio to draw in talent.

Management

Additionally, managerial positions are open throughout the Indian gaming market; for instance, freshmen with an MBA in human resources might excel in these positions. Finally, people wishing to change careers might find employment in the games business in fields like recruiting, where the primary competence needed is hiring, and any prior gaming knowledge is an advantage.

Conclusion

Since Indian gaming is developing quickly, this lucrative industry is expected to ascend to new heights in the coming years. As a result, it is crucial for people from all professional and educational backgrounds to recognize and capitalize on the opportunities which are unfolding in the Indian gaming industry, which could provide a significant foundation to establish a successful career. The predicted 100,000 employees in 2023 may sound like a lot, but given the industry’s recent expansion, the competitiveness would be intense.
