Adyen, the global financial technology platform of choice for leading businesses, has partnered with GRYPHLINE, the global publishing arm of Hypergryph, as the company expands its reach with the global release of its 3D role-playing game “Arknights: Endfield”.
Following the global success of the original “Arknights” mobile game, GRYPHLINE’s release of “Arknights: Endfield” represented its first independent, simultaneous global rollout across multiple major platforms, including PlayStation 5 alongside PC, iOS, and Android. As its new flagship title, the launch of this massive multiplatform 3D game has achieved exceptional performance and positive player feedback, marking another milestone for the company.
To support this extensive cross-platform deployment, GRYPHLINE has integrated Adyen’s unified commerce solution to manage payments internationally, including Japan, the U.S., Canada, Germany, France, the UK, and South Korea. GRYPHLINE chose Adyen for its deep expertise and extensive gaming industry experience accumulated through close collaborations with top-tier global gaming publishers. This specialized advantage ensures high authorization rates during high-velocity windows, such as game release days and version updates.
To ensure a frictionless player experience, GRYPHLINE has deployed several key modules within the Adyen Uplift suite:
-
Network Tokens & Real-Time Account Updater: These tools ensure that player payment details remain current and secure, reducing involuntary churn and failed transactions for in-game purchases.
-
Adyen Protect Premium: A sophisticated fraud prevention layer that uses AI and Dynamic Identification to distinguish between loyal players and sophisticated bot networks.
Precision Engineering and Ongoing Support
“GRYPHLINE is an entrepreneurial, forward-thinking studio that mirrors the fast-paced culture of the modern gaming industry,” said Roelant Prins, Chief Commercial Officer at Adyen. “By expanding their global publishing footprint, they needed a financial backbone that could scale as fast as their community. We are proud to provide the technology to power their global ambition.”
The foundation for this successful launch was built on meticulous preparation. Over a six-month period prior to release, Adyen collaborated closely with GRYPHLINE to build customized risk rules and conduct rigorous live-testing scenarios, which ultimately guaranteed maximum platform stability and high transaction authorization rates from day one.
Following the successful launch, Adyen has continued to stand alongside GRYPHLINE as a long-term partner, providing ongoing support and continuous authorization rate optimizations to ensure sustained peak performance. This enduring collaboration underscores Adyen’s commitment to driving long-term success and supporting GRYPHLINE’s growth across its expanding global business operations.
