Vainglory developer Super Evil Megacorp announced today that it is partnering with MadGlory to provide its community with a developer API (application programming interface) for its mobile MOBA (multiplayer online battle arena) through MadGlory\u2019s new Gamelocker service.<\/p>\n

A developer API gives access to a game\u2019s data to other developers. This means that others can make apps and programs using data from Vainglory. These apps could help Vainglory players by showing them statistics (which characters perform best) and ranks (which players are winning the most). According to Super Evil Megacorp, more than 400 developers have already signed up to create apps with this API.<\/p>\n

Vainglory has pushed itself in the esports space, giving out a prize pool worth\u00a0$120,000 last year for its World Championship. Vainglory\u2019s\u00a0second World Championship has attracted some big name teams in the competitive gaming world<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn any esport, there\u2019s nothing more important than the game\u2019s community,\u201d said Tom Carmona, director of business development at MadGlory, in a press release sent to GamesBeat \u201cGamelocker is going to help Vainglory\u2019s already rapidly-expanding, global audience engage with the game in more ways by making gameplay data accessible and digestible.\u201d<\/p>\n

MadGlory has also worked with Riot Games, Bethesda, Warner Bros., and more. The\u00a0Saratoga Springs, NY based company also works on matchmaking, chat, and marketing programs.<\/p>\n
