Telecommunication companies worldwide are grappling with the challenge of optimizing gaming download speeds and reducing latency, and Iraq is no exception. With an anticipated user base of 10.2 million mobile gamers by 2026 and a current latency of 80 milliseconds in mobile gaming applications, iQ, one of Iraq’s leading fiber optics internet providers, is making significant strides in addressing this issue.

iQ has proudly announced its groundbreaking partnership with global gaming publisher Tencent, becoming the first partner in Iraq and one of the few in the region. This collaboration solidifies iQ’s position as a major player in the country’s tech landscape. As part of the partnership, Tencent will offer iQ access to its content delivery networks and gaming content catalog, which includes popular titles like Mobile Legends, PUBG Mobile, and Call of Duty Mobile.

By hosting this content on iQ’s robust servers and leveraging its unparalleled connectivity in local data centers, the partnership aims to achieve latency levels as low as 20 milliseconds for end users, surpassing competitors in the country. This milestone will effectively resolve gaming latency issues on mobile devices in Iraq.

The collaboration brings numerous benefits, such as Tencent’s content delivery networks reducing international traffic, facilitating downloads and updates, and minimizing latency. Additionally, hosting through iQ’s Silk Route Transit Network will alleviate internet transit bottleneck traffic points in the region. Most gaming processes will be handled locally, enhancing performance and eliminating the need for high-end devices.

This partnership signifies the growing interest of foreign companies in entering the Iraqi market and catering to the technological needs of the country’s recovering economy. iQ is proud to spearhead such initiatives and remains committed to enhancing gaming and telecommunication services across Iraq. With more ambitious projects on the horizon, 2023 promises to be a transformative year for iQ and the country as a whole.
