Xsolla expands its presence in North America with its first Canadian office in Montreal

With this continued expansion in Canada, Xsolla aims to better support local game developers.

MONTREAL-Xsolla, a global video game retailer, announces the opening of its first Canadian office in Montreal, in partnership with GameAddik . This strategic expansion in one of North America’s most dynamic technology hubs confirms Xsolla’s dedication to innovation and its mission to better serve the burgeoning gaming industry and developers in Quebec and across Canada.

Montreal has long been known for its vibrant gaming ecosystem and innovative tech community. By establishing a presence in this thriving city, Xsolla aims to expand its operations with incredible local talent and foster closer relationships with regional developers. The new office will serve as a hub for Xsolla’s operations in Canada and enhance its ability to deliver tailored, localized solutions to its current partners and thousands of new game developers and publishers in the region.

“Montreal is renowned for its vibrant gaming ecosystem and innovative tech community. Our presence here will allow us to better support our local and international partners and tap into the incredible pipeline of local talent,” said Xsolla President David Stelzer. “This new Montreal office will be crucial to strengthening our relationships with local game developers and facilitating our mission to enable our partners to reach their full potential.”

As part of this expansion, Xsolla plans to hire up to 50 regional employees over the next two years, with a combination of business development, customer support and technical services roles. This investment will enhance its ability to deliver cutting-edge solutions and exceptional service.

This strategic partnership with GameAddik builds on the success of cross-service opportunities explored with their specialized marketing solution, GameRebellion , by creating a powerful support system for Canadian game developers.

“We are delighted to be collaborating with Xsolla as our GameRebellion project shares a common vision of helping studios achieve greater success,” said Alain Carpentier, CTO at GameAddik.

“Our partnership with Xsolla is a game-changer for GameAddik,” said Eric Jodoin, CEO of GameAddik. “Partnering with such a prominent company allows us to better serve the industry in its quest for success.”

The new office will be a one-stop shop for companies looking for industry-leading, cutting-edge solutions to fund, launch, market, monetize, and sell their games to local players and fans of their games around the world. Xsolla provides advanced tools and services to help game developers accelerate their business and reach gamers who want to pay for their gaming experiences locally using their preferred payment methods.
