CloudArc raised $60 million led by PlayFund Capital and regional infrastructure investor NorthStar Growth. The funding will accelerate deployment of small-scale GPU hosting hubs positioned closer to users in secondary cities, aiming to cut round-trip latency for game streaming and real-time multiplayer services.

CloudArc’s micro-hubs use compact stacking nodes with fast NVMe and validated streaming stacks to host partnered studios’ instances. The company offers developer APIs to autoscale game servers and to place instances based on latency heatmaps, which is critical for cloud-native multiplayer and streams where ms matter.

Studio partnerships include two indie publishers trialing CloudArc’s hosted builds to reach Latin American and Southeast Asian players. CEO Marco Silva highlighted that reducing last-mile latency unlocks new monetization routes for live-service games outside major metros.
