20 Years of RTPatch

RTPatch for Games

Game developers love RTPatch. In addition to a demanding and vocal customer base, game developers are creating increasingly complex applications with massive data assets. For nearly 20 years, game developers have relied on RTPatch to provide fast and reliable updates to customer bases ranging from a few dozen to multi-millions. RTPatch helps game developers to:

• create game patches that are reduced in size by 90-99%
• distribute bug fixes, new levels, game modifications and feature additions
• provide automatic game updates
• create web-delivered and standalone EXE patch updates to meet the needs of both interactive updating, as well as archiving updates for years to come, and sharing with patch distribution portals
• publish patch files that are pirate- and crack-unfriendly - an RTPatch can only be applied to an unmodified copy of your game
• reduce server load during peak hours, by reducing update size significantly
