Cross-Play

Thanks to Xsolla Launcher and Xsolla Cloud Gaming for Mobile Games, you can effortlessly deploy games and a richer play experience across mobile, PC, console, cloud, and web. Launcher makes it easier for developers to benefit from desktop capabilities, including enhanced graphics, gameplay depth, and longer play sessions when porting mobile games to PC. Xsolla Cloud Gaming for Mobile Games lets you expand cross-platform by deploying game builds directly from your game-branded landing page to cloud platforms. You can also deliver flexible monetization mechanics that mobile users will enjoy.

Cross-Pay

Xsolla helped launch 185+ online stores, including 40 of the top 100 highest-grossing mobile games worldwide. Based on what we learned from our partners, we updated Xsolla Web Shop solution. Xsolla Web Shop 2.0 makes it easy to go direct-to-player with more effective operations tools and monetization mechanics.
  • Advanced LiveOps tools give you the power of real-time player segmentation, event management, targeted messaging and decision-making based on players' behavior data.
  • Expanded personalization and engagement features create deeper connections with players and enhance their shopping experience.
  • Finally, an improved user flow to purchase streamlines the process, ensuring smooth and frictionless shopping.
Beyond these advancements, we support you with marketing expertise and best practices to ensure your in-game commerce experience is compelling and seamless and your business is lucrative.

The Cross-Play, Cross-Pay strategy helps expand your game's reach to the widest possible audience by making deep and lasting connections with players around the globe. This multi-platform approach helps you achieve your goals:
  • Make consistent and fair revenue, regardless of where your customers choose to play and shop.
