When it comes to the Game industry, many parents object to their children being exposed to it and do not want their children to study it, because people think that studying this industry will mean playing games all day. Knowledge in the Game industry includes the ecosystem of game production, publishing and game-related activities.

According to data from the Vietnam Game Producers and Publishers Alliance, the Game industry in our country reached more than 600 million USD, with an average growth rate of 9%/year - higher than the regional average (8.2%).
At the same time, in the Southeast Asian market, the gaming industry's revenue has grown strongly from 2.4 billion USD in 2019 to more than 5.3 billion USD in 2023. In particular, Vietnam is assessed to have a faster annual growth rate than other countries in the region.
Lao Dong newspaper quoted Dr. Cao Minh Thang, Deputy Director of the Institute of Information and Communications Technology, Academy of Posts and Telecommunications Technology, saying that the starting salary for game design and development positions ranges from 10 to 20 million VND/month, depending on individual capacity.
For employees with 2-3 years of work experience, this salary will have a clear differentiation, some even receive a salary of up to 50 million VND/month.
