Welcome to Xsolla Conversations. 

In this episode, Xsolla’s Chris Hewish sits down with Nic Ingham to discuss one of the biggest shifts in the game business: discovery. For years, developers relied on platform-controlled visibility App Store placements, algorithm boosts, and pay-to-win UA to get noticed. But the rules have changed. 

With seismic shifts like the Digital Markets Act and the Epic v. Apple ruling, developers now face both a challenge and an opportunity: building discovery engines from scratch. 

Nic shares actionable insights on how the most forward-thinking studios are creating interconnected ecosystems that blend first-party data, retargeting, community engagement, and content loops. These strategies aren't just buzzwords they’re essential to thrive in 2025 and beyond. 

Whether you're a developer, marketer, or studio lead, this episode is packed with real-world tactics and strategic advice to help you navigate the evolving discovery landscape. 

Let’s get into it.
