Admix launches Movember In-Play ad campaign for mobile gamers
Leading In-Play advertising company Admix has teamed up with men’s health charity Movember to launch a series of targeted ads to reach highly engaged male gamers while they play video games.
In-Play ads featuring Movember’s iconic ‘moustache’ branding will be placed natively within mobile games across a variety of genres played by the charity’s target audience of men aged between 20 and 39. Ultimate Car Driving Sim, Traffic Tour, Drive Ahead and TiMX are among the popular games that will see ads digitally injected into gameplay, with the aim of driving awareness for Movember and its mission to help men live happier, healthier and longer lives.
The global games industry is worth more than $160 billion annually – three times the value of films and music combined – with men making up half of mobile gamers worldwide. Admix’ pioneering ‘In-Play’ programmatic advertising platform allows brands to reach target consumers in a way that doesn’t interrupt the gameplay experience.
Michael Silberberg, VP of Global Agency Partnerships, Admix, commented:
“Our collaboration with Movember marks Admix’ second In-Play activation for a high profile charity, with our CoppaFeel! campaign having launched in May. Reaching people while they’re at their most engaged with relevant ads that don’t interrupt gameplay is the perfect way to deliver powerful messages and brand uplift for charities and brands alike, boosting engagement with their target audiences. We hope to continue working with Movember long term to support their ongoing men’s health awareness campaigns.”
Dan Cooper, Global Director, Innovation, Movember, said:
“We were thrilled to collaborate with Admix to get the men’s health message out to our gaming audience. Over the years, we have been humbled by the worldwide support for Movember from the gaming community. One of the ways we approach our men’s health mission is to ‘go to where men are’. This means that communities and spaces where men are already active and reachable, like gaming, are communities that play a key role in helping to create lasting change for our cause areas of men’s mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer. We’re looking forward to continuing in this space in the years to come.”

155.io flips the script again with Coin Flip game release
Reading Time: < 1 minute
155.io, the live content studio built for a mobile-first world, has turned convention on its head with the launch of Coin Flip, a machine-run coin-flipping game.
Tossing coins is as old as time as a means to settle football matches, pub games, and everyday decisions – now 155.io has transformed that timeless ritual into a live, 24/7 digital betting experience.
Central to Coin Flip is a real coin-flipping machine, powered by a precision solenoid and monitored by an overhead camera. Every coin flip is analysed by machine learning and AI systems that record and validate results in real time, feeding the outcome directly into a secure game engine. All players have to do is correctly pick heads or tails – one side features the U.S. President and the other the American flag.
Coin Flip runs continuously, 24 hours a day, offering the world’s simplest, fastest, and totally transparent betting experience.
155.io Founder and CEO Sam Jones commented: “Tossing coins is something humans have done for millennia to decide anything from fixtures to fiefdoms. Coin Flip modernises that ancient ritual, in true 155 style, and adds a competitive layer that makes it seriously entertaining.”

Just Dance, MLBB and HADO Added to Lineup of Global Gaming Icons for the Games of the Future 2025

Phygital International (PI), the exclusive rights holder and custodian of the Games of the Future (GOTF), is unveiling the final game titles set to feature in this December’s pioneering phygital sports tournament, along with a powerful line-up of new global media partners who will bring the event to fans around the world.
With 11 disciplines and the world’s best athletes ready to compete across virtual and physical challenges, the Games of the Future 2025, taking place at ADNEC in Abu Dhabi from 18-23 December, promises to deliver a groundbreaking phygital showcase that will redefine what it means to play, perform and compete.
In addition to previously announced global esports icons such as Counter-Strike 2, Dota 2, Fortnite, Fatal Fury: City of Wolves, UFL and 3on3 Freestyle, Phygital International has confirmed three new titles that further broaden the depth and dynamism of the tournament. Each game has been carefully selected to complement a unique phygital discipline, showcasing the full spectrum of speed, skill and strategy that defines the Games of the Future.
Joining the roster is Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB), the global mobile gaming phenomenon that has defined the multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) genre for millions of players worldwide. In the MOBA Mobile discipline, MLBB will see players battle in high intensity matches that test strategy, coordination and tactical mastery.
Adding rhythm and flair to the lineup, Just Dance, the world’s best-selling dance game series, will take centre stage in the Phygital Dancing competition. Renowned for its vibrant energy and expressive gameplay, Just Dance brings one of the world’s most dynamic and community-driven gaming experiences to GOTF 2025, where athletes will be challenged to combine choreography, precision and physical stamina as digital gameplay meets live performance in a visually electrifying showcase.
In the confirmed lineup of tournament games, the addition of HADO completes the roster, serving as the core of the virtual reality (VR) gaming competition. As a pioneering augmented reality (AR) experience, HADO integrates real-world body movements with digital game scenarios through wearable AR technology. Players do not use controllers; instead, they directly “control” virtual skills with their physical movements – running, dodging and aiming in the real world – with every action directly impacting the in-game situation and instantly reflected visually. HADO promises to deliver a fast-paced, visually stunning VR competitive experience.
“These newly announced titles highlight the full range of phygital sports that people can experience at the Games of the Future 2025. From the expressive energy of dance, the global appeal of mobile esports to the groundbreaking innovation of AR gameplay, this second wave of games highlights the diversity and excitement of phygital sport,” said Nis Hatt, CEO of Phygital International.
In addition to expanding its game lineup, Phygital International is also announcing a series of major global media partnerships, ensuring that the Games of the Future 2025 will be accessible to fans around the world through both digital and broadcast platforms.
