In July 2026, Xsolla will be attending Develop:Brighton, one of the UK’s key events for game developers, publishers, and industry professionals. Alongside its presence at the conference, Xsolla is also hosting its own dedicated networking and insight event, Xsolla Connect Brighton, bringing together creators and industry leaders to discuss the evolving business of games.
A strategic presence at Develop:Brighton
Develop:Brighton has become a central meeting point for the European games industry, covering everything from production pipelines to publishing strategy and emerging technologies. Xsolla’s participation reflects its continued focus on supporting developers in navigating the commercial side of game development.
At the event, Xsolla will be engaging with studios of all sizes, from indie teams to established publishers, offering insights into how developers can better monetize, distribute, and scale their games globally.
Introducing Xsolla Connect Brighton
Alongside the main conference, Xsolla will be hosting Xsolla Connect Brighton, an exclusive side event designed to foster deeper conversations beyond the expo floor. The event brings together developers, partners, and industry stakeholders in a more focused environment.
Xsolla Connect is structured around networking, discussion, and knowledge sharing, giving attendees the opportunity to explore practical solutions to real-world challenges in game commerce and distribution.

Focus on the future of game commerce
A key theme of Xsolla’s presence at Brighton is the changing nature of game monetization and global reach. As games increasingly operate as live services, developers face new challenges in payments, regional distribution, compliance, and player engagement.
Xsolla’s platform is built around solving these complexities, helping studios launch and scale games across markets while maintaining flexibility in how they monetize content and services.
Why events like this matter
Industry events like Develop:Brighton remain essential for collaboration in a rapidly evolving sector. They provide a space where technical innovation meets commercial strategy, and where partnerships are often formed that shape the future of games.
