Loudplay targets gamers with Equinix's assistance

Cloud gaming company leveraging interconnection and edge computing to expand service model and offering across EMEA and Asia.

Equinix is supporting cloud gaming company Loudplay’s global expansion to new markets in collaboration with its channel partner AirSpeed. Loudplay is leveraging Equinix Cloud Exchange Fabric® (ECX Fabric®) to provide industry-leading performance, security and reliability for cloud gamers, aiming to reach 500,000 users by year-end 2021.

Through Equinix’s partnership with AirSpeed, Loudplay is now using ECX Fabric to expand further across EMEA and Asia, with plans to increase its user base from 200,000 users to 500,000 by year-end 2021, by enablingthrough its cloud platformhigh-end PC gaming on any device.
