Xsolla and Stevenage F.C. team up to change the game

April 28, 2025

Part of Xsolla’s mission has always been to empower developers and connect communities while fueling the future of interactive entertainment. By collaborating with change-making organizations, we're creating a space to facilitate collaboration and bring new ideas to life for the video game industry and beyond. That’s why we've partnered with Stevenage Football Club as official club sponsor, shirt sponsor, and gaming partner for both the men’s and women’s teams through the 2024–25 and 2025–26 seasons. Our goal for this partnership is to unite two global communities driven by passion, performance, and purpose, and to create a space where football and gaming can intersect to inspire connection, creativity, and opportunity. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at the story behind our partnership, what fans and players can expect across touchpoints, and how this collaboration reflects our shared commitment to pushing boundaries across global communities.

About our partnership

Stevenage F.C. has built a strong reputation for excellence on the pitch and deep engagement off it, from its EFL League One status to its meaningful charitable initiatives. The club’s mission to inspire through sport aligns closely with Xsolla’s own drive to empower developers and connect players of all kinds worldwide. As a global video game commerce company, Xsolla supports game developers and publishers of all sizes with powerful tools, including payment solutions, web shops, and back-end infrastructure. Now, we’re bringing that same spirit of innovation to the world of football. Through this partnership, Xsolla will be prominently featured on Stevenage F.C.’s official kits worn in all league and cup games, replica kits, pitch-side branding, digital matchday programmes, and the club’s growing digital presence on YouTube and social media. We’re also excited to extend this collaboration into the gaming world. Fans can look forward to exclusive content, in-game experiences, and community-focused campaigns designed to celebrate the overlap between sports and gaming.
