Not all Android devices are created equally. Some devices don't even include the Google Play Store. Some devices that come to mind are the Amazon Fire phone or any of the Kindle tablets. There are several other international devices that run skin overlays that include the Amazon store in favor of the Play Store.
If you are heavily invested in the Google Play Store ecosystem it means you have already purchased those apps. If your new device doesn't have the Play Store you won't be able to access those apps you have purchased. Even if your device doesn't have the Play Store you can still install it. All that is required is that you have a custom recovery installed. Once custom recovery is installed you can flash a GAPPs package. Not only will you gain the Play Store but also the Google Camera, Keyboard, Gmail, and more! Grab the correct Gapps package for your device from the link below.
