Xfire, Inc : ., committed to enhancing the gaming experience, announced today the availability of Xfire XO, a browser add-on that gives Xfire gamers innovative new features in the web browser.

Xfire’s desktop application is extremely popular among gamers because it allows them to share their gaming experiences with their friends and the larger Xfire community. Always looking to engage

the gaming community in new and innovative ways, Xfire needed a method to extend the gaming experience into the browser.

Created using the Conduit platform, Xfire XO offers never-before-seen features such as the ability to launch and track their time-played in browser based games. Xfire XO also gives users easy access to see and share great gamer-generated content such as live video and screenshots from the Xfire community of 14.5 million registered gamers.

According to Chris Kirmse, General Manager of Xfire, the company chose Conduit because its open platform has limitless potential for technological innovation and scale. “We needed a tool that would help us easily deliver our unique features and launch our web-based games and Conduit provided us with the solution that can grow with us.”

“Xfire XO is proof that there are no limits on what can be integrated with our platform and deployed across different browsers and operating systems,” said Adam Boyden, president of Conduit. “Xfire XO is a great tool for hard core gamers and will be a powerful method for Xfire to engage their users more often.”


“Although easy to use, the Conduit Platform is also so powerful that it is advancing the functionality of our tool,” continued Kirmse. “We were able to put any application on Xfire XO and make it available to our gamers wherever and wherever they are online. We now have a dynamic web tool that enables players to not only stay up-to-date with their browser games, but also to keep in touch with the Xfire community while they surf the web. This will keep them engaged and playing more often.”

Xfire XO is available on the Xfire website ( www.xfire.com/about_xo : ).
