The third part concerns bespoke development of a new type of game which will be offered exclusively via Betsson Group online casinos.
“Gaming Corps is demonstrating real innovation with their iGaming portfolio. The upcoming Table Games and iJect series of Multiplier Games resonates with how Betsson Group sees the industry going forward, and together I believe we can position ourselves at the forefront of this development. In addition, we are impressed with the speed at which Gaming Corps has been able to develop new products which has led to partnering on creating an exciting new type of game. It will be interesting to follow how this cooperation unfolds and I am confident that we will build market value for both parties.” says Paul Malt, Head of Games, Betsson Group.

We are incredibly pleased to be entering into a partnership with one of Europe’s leading iGaming companies, a player responsible for driving the industry forward over the course of many years, having left a significant imprint on it, not least here in Sweden. Now we are given the opportunity to not only offer our games to all of Betsson Group’s many players around the world but also, in collaboration with a tremendously industry-savvy team, develop the next generation of casino games. That is a challenge I know our talented team members will meet. I would like to thank Betsson Group for good cooperation, we look forward to working on many exciting projects together in the future.” says Juha Kauppinen, CEO, Gaming Corps.
The agreement furthermore includes some exclusivity for Betsson Group on Gaming Corps’ upcoming iJect series of Multiplier Games in Italy and Georgia. Distribution of the full Gaming Corps portfolio will be carried out via iSoftbet’s Game Aggregation Platform (GAP).
“As we continue to develop our product portfolio, I believe Gaming Corps is on the right track of offering the type of innovation that large operators are looking for in an increasingly saturated market. With our upcoming products we have let gamification lead the way, and that represents the core of this new partnership with Betsson. I am very excited to get
started on our collaboration.” says Alex Lorimer, Head of Business Development, Gaming Corps
Buffalo 250 Anniversary
ICONIC21 launches Buffalo 250 Anniversary slot themed around US 250th
Fourth of July-themed release reflects the studio’s push for market-specific content in regulated US-facing iGaming.
ICONIC21 has launched Buffalo 250 Anniversary, a Fourth of July-themed slot created to mark the United States’ 250th anniversary.
The game is centered on a buffalo and set against Independence Day fireworks, using imagery associated with US identity and the country’s upcoming semi quincentennial.
ICONIC21 said the release reflects its focus on building content around themes and player preferences that resonate in specific markets, with the US described as an increasingly important market for its partners and a key source of player engagement. The company develops live casino, RNG and slots content for regulated operators.
“The Fourth of July is one of those occasions that is recognised far beyond the United States, and the country’s 250th anniversary makes it especially significant,” said Edvardas Sadovskis, Chief Product Officer at ICONIC21. “The theme combines a distinctly American symbol with a moment that has real cultural relevance for players and operators alike.”
ICONIC21 added that it works with operators to shape its roadmap around player data, market demand and local relevance, and that it assesses follow-on titles using internal views, performance data and operator feedback. The provider said it has expanded beyond a classic casino portfolio — including roulette, baccarat and blackjack — into RNG and slots while keeping a market-specific focus for regulated environments.

Betsson CEO Pontus Lindwall
Gaming in the Nordics launch event sets annual Copenhagen conference from 2027
Invite-only Copenhagen event at Better Collective HQ featured Nordic regulators and operators discussing compliance and channelisation.
Gaming in the Nordics has set plans for a full-size annual conference in Copenhagen starting in June 2027, following an invitation-only launch event held at Better Collective’s HQ in Copenhagen.
The launch event focused on the Nordics’ role in Europe’s iGaming market, with sessions on regulation and compliance. Morten Ronde, CEO of the Danish Online Gambling Association and Partner at Nordic Legal, said the region’s “pragmatism and willingness to be early adopters” could make Nordic jurisdictions the first to deploy “the next generation of innovative iGaming regulation.”
Anders Dorph, Director of Danish regulator Spillemyndigheden, discussed operator compliance, the role of Big Tech, and player monitoring. On the benefits of a regulated market, Dorph said Danish-licensed operators “are all very eager to be compliant. The industry [in Denmark] wants to be compliant. And that is a fact.”
From an operator perspective, Betsson CEO Pontus Lindwall and Immense Group CEO Jesper Kärrbrink addressed market channelisation and player protection. Lindwall outlined three prerequisites for a healthy market with high channelisation: “1) a competitive product; 2) meaningful player protections; and 3) real enforcement.” He added: “We are in a business where there is harm,” and argued that protecting players requires channelisation because “We also need to be able to reach these players, which we can only do if they are inside of the regulated system.”
Gaming in the Nordics founder Willem van Oort said: “I think the Gaming in the Nordics Launch Event was a fantastic success… I am very much looking forward to repeating this experience next year on a larger scale.” Other speakers listed by the organiser included Better Collective co-founder and co-CEO Jesper Søgaard, Birgitte Sand (Birgitte Sand & Associates), Pekka Ilmivalta (Nordic Legal – Finland), Josh Hodgson (H2 Gambling Capital), Daniel Valiollahi (BOS), Rasmus Kjaergaard (Mindway AI), Jeffrey Haas (Blask), and day chair Peter-Paul de Goeij (QuodBonum.se).
