Highwire Games deploys authoritative servers in days with Edgegap’s 615+ edge locations

Highwire Games, the developer of the tactical shooter Six Days in Fallujah, faced the challenge of integrating high-performance, low-latency authoritative multiplayer servers for its global player base. With a small team and procedurally generated maps, they needed a robust hosting solution that could be implemented quickly without diverting critical resources from game development. They chose the Edgegam platform to solve this.

Edgegam provided a distributed cloud hosting solution that deployed game servers across 615+ global locations, ensuring optimal latency and region-less hosting for players. The integration was simple and completed in days, saving hundreds of days of labor. With Edgegam's support and automated orchestration, Highwire achieved a stable player experience with no server outages, allowing them to align hosting costs directly with player demand.
