Xsolla Introduces Integrated Backend and Global Payment Solutions for Games, With Founding Partner AccelByte

Xsolla, a leading video game commerce company, has announced a partnership with AccelByte, a gaming backend platform, to provide integrated backend solutions for game developers. This collaboration aims to streamline the development process by combining AccelByte's backend services with Xsolla's global payment and monetization tools.

Select developers can apply for early access to this closed testing program, which will help shape the integration before its wider release. By streamlining the backend and payment processes, Xsolla hopes to reduce costs and accelerate game launches for studios operating across various platforms, including PC, mobile, console, and web.

Chris Hewish, President of Xsolla, noted that the integration is being developed in direct response to feedback from studios currently using both Xsolla and AccelByte platforms. Junaili Lie, CEO and Technical Director at AccelByte, emphasized the accessibility and ease of integration of AccelByte's platform with Xsolla's tools. The closed testing program is currently limited to a select group of studios, with developers able to meet both teams at gamescom 2026 or register their interest through xsolla.pro/backend.

Xsolla, headquartered in Los Angeles, California, supports game developers of all sizes, providing solutions for commerce, payments, IP, and player engagement. The company has worked with over 70% of the top 100 highest-grossing games and processes transactions in more than 200 geographies with access to over 1,000 local payment methods.
