Case Study: Dirty Pearl Studios achieves low-latency VR multiplayer hosting with Edgegap

Dirty Pearl Studios cuts VR multiplayer latency by 58% with Edgegap

Dirty Pearl Studios, a VR game developer, faced the challenge of finding a fully managed game server hosting solution that would integrate easily with their Nakama backend and scale without demanding DevOps resources. As a small studio, they needed to focus on game development, not infrastructure. A critical requirement was minimizing latency for their VR horror game to prevent player motion sickness, a unique challenge for the platform. They turned to Edgegap for its game server orchestration service.

Edgegap provided a fully managed solution with an Unreal Engine plugin for easy integration and automated, regionless global hosting across 615+ locations. This eliminated the studio's fleet management burdens and deployed servers on-demand as close to players as possible, reducing latency by 58% on average. The responsive support and seamless integration with Nakama convinced Dirty Pearl Studios to switch providers, allowing them to focus entirely on development.
