Software company will use its cutting-edge Multiplayer Remote Game Server (RGS) to produce its own content for the first time following a major shift in focus

Software development company Black Cow Technology is shifting focus to become a multiplayer content provider.

Black Cow is a renowned software company whose Single Player RGS, Jackpot Server and recently launched Multiplayer RGS are used by tier one operators and providers. For example, Draftkings and Interbloc use its Single Players RGS while PlayJeux and Light & Wonder use its Multiplayer RGS.

But now the company is transitioning into a multiplayer game developer as demand for multiplayer content continues to rise.

Black Cow will use its powerful Multiplayer RGS to create a portfolio of next-generation multiplayer content, which will be made available to select operators in regulated markets in North America and LatAm.

Its Multiplayer RGS has been built on the foundation of its proven Single Player RGS, live for more than eight years now, and is the only truly event-driven Multiplayer RGS in the market.

It can be used to build multiplayer gameplay across any game format, feature and functionality and facilitate any kind of interaction between players. This includes everything from slots and table games to crash, plinko, lottery, live dealer, bingo and non-gambling events.

To guide Black Cow’s move into multiplayer content creation, the company has made two key hires to date, including Ernie Lafky as Chief Product Officer and Shelley Hannah as Chief Operations Officer.

Ernie has been tasked with shaping the games Black Cow will offer, including how it will bring together the elements of multiplayer, gamification and social interaction, while Shelley will help steer the company’s move toward a product-first model, aligning technology, operations and delivery around the creation of multiplayer gaming experiences.

Black Cow is gearing up to unveil its Multiplayer product roadmap, and the company has said its games will be underpinned by the reliability, flexibility and robustness that it has built its reputation on over the past 12 years.

Max Francis, Black Cow Founder and CEO, said: “Having empowered operators and suppliers to push boundaries and create truly great content through our Single Player RGS, Jackpot Server and our Multiplayer RGS, making the move into in-house game development was a logical next step.

“We are passionate about multiplayer games and experiences and genuinely believe it’s what players will expect in the future – many actually expect it today.

“Our Multiplayer RGS has been designed to provide multiplayer gameplay across any game, format or event, and this means there’s tremendous scope for what we can do with our own content. And with Ernie and Shelley helping to steer the ship, I’m confident we can do great things.”
