The First Video Game Was Created in 1958

The first video game is considered to be 'Tennis for Two', created in 1958 by physicist William Higinbotham. It was played on an oscilloscope.

This simple game simulated a tennis match, where two players controlled dots representing paddles, trying to hit a ball that moved across the screen.

Although rudimentary, 'Tennis for Two' was an important milestone in video game history, paving the way for the development of more complex games and the digital entertainment industry we know today.
