We bring you useful information and news from Hive! Greetings from Hive Platform! 😊
Not long ago, playing games on a PC at your desk was the norm. But with the rise of smartphones, the market quickly shifted to mobile, and short, casual gameplay became the mainstream.
In recent years, however, we’ve seen mobile-only games expanding into the PC space.
That’s because more players want to enjoy their games on bigger screens and for longer sessions.
If you’re considering expanding an active mobile game to PC, or planning to launch a new title on both mobile and PC, this one’s for you.

Shall we take a look at the process of launching a PC app? |
|
|
Step 1. ⚙️App Development |
|
|
Develop the app using the Hive SDK Windows Unity or Unreal version.
If you’re already servicing your mobile game with the Hive SDK, you can quickly develop the PC version with the same interface. |
|
|
Upload the game files to the CDN using Hive’s Uploader tool, then change the file status to ‘Review.’ Once updated, you can run a final playtest under live conditions using the designated ‘Review IP.’
Hive provides a convenient environment for uploading and testing apps, so you can thoroughly check the game’s quality before release. |
|
|
Step 3. 🚀 App Distribution |
|
|
Once the review is complete, set the release date and schedule the app for distribution—it will launch automatically.
Hive minimizes the operational burden with automated distribution, ensuring a fast and stable release. |
|
|
Step 4. ⭐ Game Launch and Version Management |
|
|
Players can run the PC version directly from your website, or start instantly via the community’s ‘Play on PC’ button.
The Crossplay Launcher supports periodic updates, so users always play the latest version of your app. |
