Gaming Industry Veteran Kent Young Launches New AI-Powered Gaming Technology and Content Venture, Predigy
Kent Young, the gaming industry visionary behind True Blue Gaming and Spin Games, has launched his third major venture, Predigy. Following a track record of two consecutive lucrative exits, Young’s latest venture is poised to disrupt the sector by leveraging advanced Artificial Intelligence, to create alternative gaming applications for existing and emerging gaming related segments.
Predigy enters the market with a singular mission: to harness the generative power of AI to develop alternative gaming technology and content that moves beyond traditional casino applications. As the industry at large seeks to adopt new and innovative verticals, Predigy will focus on building immersive, AI-adaptive applications that bridge the gap between alternative verticals and real-money wagering.
“The gaming and related verticals landscape is currently undergoing its most significant transformation in history. With True Blue, we focused on land-based content innovation. With Spin Games, we pioneered the early days of North American iGaming digital content and RGS technology. With Predigy, we are looking specifically at how AI development environments can fundamentally alter technology, design applications, and player interaction. We are building alternative gaming applications as the traditional environment and gameplay evolve in real-time,” said Kent Young, Founder of Predigy.

Evoplay rolls out Season of Legends campaign with €512,000 spring prize pool
Evoplay has launched Season of Legends, a year-long network campaign built around four seasonal phases, starting with a spring edition carrying a €512,000 prize pool. The spring phase launched in March and runs across March, April and May.
The studio said the new format follows its previous Big Adventures network campaign and is designed to drive sustained engagement through a more structured seasonal approach. Each season runs for three months with new mechanics and prize pools.
A new mechanic, Infinity Prize Drops, will run daily throughout each month and is not tied to tournament windows. The spring edition also includes a Tournament and Wheel of Fortune, each operating in four monthly phases: 1st- 5th, 9th- 13th, 17th- 21st, and 25th- 29th.
Evoplay said the €512,000 spring prize pool will be distributed across the three-month period via a consolidated leaderboard spanning participating operators. Players earn points through qualifying spins on selected Evoplay titles including Hot Triple Sevens, Piggy Bank: 3 Pots Bonanza, and the Penalty Shoot-out series.
Diana Larina, Head of Marketing at Evoplay, said: “Season of Legends marks the next evolution of our network campaigns. With Big Adventures, we saw just how effective long-term engagement can be, and this new format takes that even further.
“By introducing seasonal structure and mechanics like Infinity Drops, we’re giving operators the tools to maintain consistent player activity, rather than relying on short-term spikes. This is just the beginning, and we’re excited to build momentum throughout the year.”
