Play’n GO Music announces release of Quantum Rush Visualizer
Visualizer created to represent hit release Quantum Rush and to celebrate a year of collaboration between Play’n GO Music and MoneyGram Haas F1 Team
Play’n GO Music, the music division of the world’s leading casino entertainment provider Play’n GO, has today announced the release of its Quantum Rush Visualizer, in the wake of a successful 12-month collaboration between the brand and MoneyGram Haas F1 Team.
Earlier this year, Play’n GO Music set out to explore how music can fuel sport, using its sponsorship of MoneyGram Haas F1 Team as an inspiration. To motivate both fans and team members alike, hit single Quantum Rush was created, to be used as a pump-up track on race weekends, with the Visualizer serving as a summary of the year-long collaboration. Throughout the year, Play’n GO Music and MoneyGram Haas F1 Team have collaborated on a series of initiatives to connect the team with their fans through a series of playlists designed by MoneyGram Haas F1 Team members; Ayao’s Anthems, Hulkenberg’s Hits, Magnussen’s Mix, the Haas Tracklist, and the Fan Fueled Favs playlist, chosen exclusively by fans for the motorsport team.
Play’n GO became a sponsor of MoneyGram Haas F1 Team in November 2023 and has remained a steadfast partner of the team throughout the 2024 season.
Ebba Arnred, CMO and Co-Founder at Play’n GO, said “The collaboration between Play’n GO Music and MoneyGram Haas F1 Team has been a creative and enjoyable initiative, showcasing a fresh approach to engaging with our audience. Pivoting from the world of online casino to the music industry was a bold leap, and mixing in the high-octane world of motorsport has proven to be a game changer. Watching Ayao, Nico, Kevin, and the entire MoneyGram Haas F1 Team craft their own playlists earlier this year brought the worlds of gaming, music, and motorsport together in an unprecedented way. The release of Quantum Rush in August was the crowning achievement of an incredible year, and the Quantum Rush Visualizer adds another electrifying layer to this partnership for fans to enjoy. This partnership has created new boundaries for what is possible as an iGaming brand; we’re already gearing up for even bigger things in 2025.”
Ayao Komatsu, Team Principal at MoneyGram Haas F1 Team added “Working with a music brand is certainly a new one for our team, but we’ve all had great fun collaborating with Play’n GO Music this year. On a personal level, I appreciated the opportunity to share my musical tastes with our fans, and I can speak for the entire team here when I say they enjoyed the chance to contribute also. We’re already looking forward to getting back on track in 2025, and to continuing our partnership with Play’n GO.”

BETBY ENHANCES ESPORTS EXPERIENCE WITH EXPANDED OUTRIGHTS AND PLAYER PROPS PORTFOLIO
BETBY, a premium sportsbook provider, has released a major update to its esports portfolio, introducing an unmatched selection of new outrights and player prop markets. With these additions, BETBY now offers three times more outright options than the market average and a completely unique range of player-specific betting markets, setting a new standard for player engagement opportunities through esports content.
BETBY’s expanded outright offerings deliver diversity and unmatched depth in the industry. For instance when it comes to Counter-Strike 2 (CS2), bettors can now access markets that go beyond the standard winners and most played maps, with new betting markets such as Tournament Most Valuable Player (MVP), Magnum Sniper Rifle (AWP) Kill Comparisons, and numerous others now available. In Dota, unique markets like Most Popular Hero (Picks + Bans) and Hero with Highest Kill Death Assist (KDA) provide a more engaging and data-driven betting experience. These markets are updated throughout the entirety of tournaments, ensuring players can place bets during breaks occurring between game days or stages. The update extends beyond Dota and CS2, as BETBY now offers unique outright markets as well for games like Escape from Tarkov: Arena and Standoff 2 – content which is currently not being offered elsewhere in the esports landscape.
The second significant enhancement is the introduction of a much broader esports player props portfolio, which is entirely developed by BETBY’s team of expert traders. This allows players to place bets on individual performances across all S-Tier, A-Tier, B-Tier, and C-Tier tournaments for main esports disciplines, and not only on the occurrence of major events.
These additions further bolster BETBY’s esports portfolio, following a series of major updates that underline the company’s focus on innovation and its dedication to providing engaging content for its partners and their end-users.
Kirill Nekrasov, Head of BETBY Games, commented: “We decided to accelerate the launch of new outrights and player prop markets for esports because we see a gap in the industry. We wanted to develop our own solutions and noticed that even though providers offer classic pre-tournament outrights, none of them provide continuously updated outrights when the events are in progress. Regarding player props, it’s relatively new content as part of our esports feed. If we talk about traditional sports, like soccer or basketball, it’s the standard for the industry. But I foresee that when it comes to esports it will as well be an absolute must-have in the future, with the performance and statistics of teams and players now becoming more widely available. Despite the fact that player props are not a new thing in the esports industry, these markets are offered only throughout top-tier tournaments and only for a limited number of teams. What we did was push this feature not only for top tournaments, but also B-Tier and C-Tier tournaments, whilst at the same time broadening player props coverage to a wider teams coverage.”
BETBY will be showcasing its premium sportsbook solutions and services at the upcoming ICE 2025 in Barcelona.
