Company profile
researched Aug 2026Network Next offers network acceleration for multiplayer games. Its SDK embeds into a game and takes over sending and receiving the game's UDP packets. When the system identifies a faster route across its relay network than the default public internet path, packets are sent over that relay network instead.
The company positions the technology as a way to reduce latency for players experiencing high ping within their own region. It works with acceleration partners that contribute to the underlying relay network.
Traction
Network Next is described as live worldwide with the game REMATCH. In REMATCH's Season 1 announcement, the developer stated the technology was initially deployed only in the Sao Paulo server region and, following positive observed results, was subsequently enabled in the EU, US, Central America, Turkey and Middle East regions.

Technology
The Network Next SDK is embedded directly into a game client and intercepts the game's UDP packet send and receive paths. It continuously evaluates routing options and, when a faster route is available across the company's relay network, forwards packets through those relays rather than over the default internet route.
Go-to-market
The technology is integrated by game developers via an SDK and delivered in partnership with acceleration partners that supply relay capacity.
Developers and publishers of online multiplayer games whose players experience high latency.
Geography
Deployments referenced include the Sao Paulo server region initially, followed by the EU, US, Central America, Turkey and Middle East regions.
