Xsolla Redefines the Metaverse With New Metasites Platform for Unreal Creators
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Xsolla, a global commerce company helping developers launch, grow and monetize their games, announces today the latest evolution of its Metasite™ platform, designed to meet the growing demand for immersive, accessible, and creator-driven Metaverse experiences.

Powered by advancements in cloud streaming and WebGL, Xsolla Metasite™ is purpose-built for today's creators and developers seeking a better way to deploy multiplayer experiences, simplify distribution, and activate their audiences. Key benefits of the updated Metasites platform include: Frictionless Multiplayer Access: Launch interactive 3D worlds with instant play—no installs or downloads required. Built for Unreal Engine: New plugin support simplifies multiplayer integration, content sharing, and live updates. Creator Monetization: Enable payments for in-game items or access, powered by Xsolla's secure payment ecosystem.

Massive Multiplayer & Community Features: Support for 10,000+ concurrent users (CCU) powered by Quark, with integrated voice and text chat, custom avatars, and scalable session architecture.

The platform supports game demos, social hubs, digital art galleries, multiplayer showcases, and more.
