There are number of such gaming technologies that can change the way we think about gaming. Let's look at some such predictions which are going to be realized in 2020.
Open Source Gaming Development
The AAA game developers and some small companies largely dominate the gaming development scene with the Software Development Kit (SDK). This may fade as in future new tools arising that will make SDK of less important and make it easier for independent game developers to create and release their own game. They can also make extensive modifications to the existing games.
Hyper-Immersive Gameplay through VR and Photorealistic Graphics
Till now, the graphics are cartoonish, and the level of immersion is clunky. Though photorealistic graphics are there in PC games and console games feature them, VR is yet to catch-up. In future gaming technology, VR headsets would be able to render 3D graphics, which are quite realistic in nature. They'll also remove the hardware barriers that keep gamers away from hyper-immersive gameplay.
Increasing Use of AR
Though AR has been around for a while like VR, it is yet to be fully utilized in connection with video games. AR can be used through smartphones with gaming apps or may be used with VR headsets and future game consoles. They can also be used through wearable like a smartwatch or Google Glass.
Gaming in the Cloud
The cloud computing technology makes the prediction of playing games with any device, a reality. With better, faster, and reliable internet connections, one will be able to play a game from any device just as playing video and music. This makes video games cheaper and accessible to those who don't have access to PCs or consoles. They also don't require to download updates from time to time.
