Gaming Realms Announces Pre-close Trading Update
Gaming Realms has announced a pre-close trading update, in which it stated its expectation that it will post circa £11.4m ($14.8m) in revenue for H1 2023 – representing a 34% increase year-on-year.
Meanwhile, its adjusted EBITDA is expected to total around £4.6m – a 32% annual H1 rise.
Gaming Realms has attributed the expected growth to the 25 new partnerships it has signed, as well as the five new Slingo games it has launched during the period.
Mark Segal, CEO of Gaming Realms, said: “We are delighted to report strong performance in the first half of 2023, demonstrating our ability to deliver consistent growth from our ever-expanding games portfolio across existing and new markets. As we advance into the second half of 2023, we believe the momentum will continue, backed by our strong commercial pipeline, and that we will meet our full-year targets.”
In Europe, Gaming Realms has launched with bet365 in the UK, 888 in Romania and Spain, Betflag in Italy, and Betsson and Mr Green Casino in Denmark.
Furthermore, it was also given a Swedish Gaming Authority license, meaning the company intends to move into the Swedish market very soon.
Additionally, Gaming Realms also acquired brand licenses for Tetris and Taito’s Space Invaders – as well as a new agreement with Entain, which saw the latter launch Slingo Bingo in May.

Gaming Realms and Paddy Power launch branded title Slingo Golden Lucky Pants featuring legendary briefs
Gaming Realms has expanded its successful partnership with leading operator Paddy Power with the launch of Slingo Golden Lucky Pants, a bespoke title featuring the brand’s legendary green and white Y-front briefs.
The new game sees Paddy Power’s iconic underwear land on the reels, with eight collected symbols triggering the Lucky Pants Balloon Bonus. In this feature, players select three inflated and airborne pairs of briefs to reveal prizes, additional picks, and multipliers of up to 216x the stake.
At the heart of the title is Gaming Realms’ signature Slingo mechanic, which blends slot and bingo gameplay. Players spin the reel to match numbers on the board, climbing the Slingo ladder for progressively higher rewards. Achieving a full house activates the Golden Lucky Pants Bonus, where selecting the correct three briefs can unlock one of five jackpots — including the top Super jackpot worth 5,000x the stake.
Wild and Super Wild symbols also appear on the reels, allowing players to strategically choose positions to “dab,” bringing them closer to completing a Slingo and unlocking additional prize potential.
The bespoke game marks the latest collaboration between Gaming Realms and Flutter Entertainment brand Paddy Power, following the exclusive rollout of Bingoton Slingo in 2023.
Gaming Realms continues to work closely with partners to develop tailored and exclusive titles that help brands differentiate themselves in a competitive marketplace, combining recognisable brand assets with high-performing mechanics designed to appeal to broad player demographics.
Gareth Scott, Chief Commercial Officer at Gaming Realms, said:
“We are thrilled to further strengthen our partnership with Paddy Power through the launch of Slingo Golden Lucky Pants.
“This title perfectly captures the essence of what we do best — merging our unique Slingo mechanic with an operator’s iconic brand identity to create a standout gaming experience. It’s been a pleasure to ‘brief’ our mechanics into such a legendary brand asset, and we’re confident players will love the mix of humour and high-win potential.”
Adam O’Connor, Senior Content Manager at Paddy Power, added:
“Offering our customers original and entertaining content is paramount to us, and with Slingo Golden Lucky Pants we’re bringing something completely unique, featuring our iconic briefs that have become famous after being worn by numerous sports stars.
“Slingo Golden Lucky Pants delivers a fun and rewarding experience, and we hope they bring luck to players as they enjoy the thrill of the game.”
