Reign of Guilds: game site, forum and key store
The official site of an MMORPG needed one account for the site and the forum, and a way to sell game keys before launch. We built both on Webasyst.

The project
The problem
Before launching the MMORPG Reign of Guilds, the team needed an official site in three languages, a forum that used the same login, and a way to take payments for pre-sales. Players had to be able to buy game keys and see their purchases without juggling separate accounts.
What we built
- The site design and its markup in Webasyst, in Russian, English and German.
- Payments through Xsolla, including an Xsolla store for game keys.
- A bridge between Webasyst and the XenForo forum with shared sign-in through Xsolla, built as a Webasyst plugin.
- A player account that manages the site and forum profile and shows purchase history.
- Segmentation of contacts and newsletter subscribers by registration data and user actions, and web server tuning.
What changed
Players sign in once for the site and the forum, buy keys in the same account and see what they have already bought. The pre-sales launched on this setup.
Results
- site languages: Russian, English, German
- 3
- sign-in shared by the site and the forum
- 1

Next project
An online store needed to process more than 30,000 products a month under high load. We designed the server side, the pricing and delivery logic, and automated releases.
