Hacksaw Gaming Makes Landmark US Market Entry in West Virginia via Rush Street Interactive Collaboration
Award-winning online casino game provider Hacksaw Gaming is delighted to announce its entry into the US iGaming arena after agreeing a content distribution deal with Rush Street Interactive, Inc. (NYSE: RSI) (“Rush Street” or “RSI”), one of the most trusted and fastest-growing online casino and sports betting gaming companies in the United States.
The landmark agreement sees a series of popular Hacksaw Gaming online slots integrated into the operator’s BetRivers brand through Light & Wonder’s distribution network.
Kicking off the partnership, gritty 2022 creation The Bowery Boys is now available to play at the West Virginia platform of BetRivers, with flagship title Wanted Dead or a Wild following later today. An assortment of hit Hacksaw Gaming games like Toshi Video Club, Stack’em, Joker Bombs, Gladiator Legends, and Hand of Anubis are set to be added over the coming weeks.
Hacksaw Gaming’s maiden US venture marks a significant step forward as part of a broader strategy to grow its international footprint, adding West Virginia to the studio’s list of certified jurisdictions that also includes MGA, UKGC, Romania, Greece, Netherlands, Latvia, Ontario, Italy, and Sweden.
CCO of Hacksaw Gaming, Gabrielle Star, hailed the agreement, saying: “Today’s news represents a huge milestone for us. We’re overjoyed to make our long-awaited US bow with RSI’s BetRivers, one of the leading casino brands in the states, capping months of hard work behind the scenes.
“As one of the first few states to adopt a forward-leaning approach towards iGaming, West Virginia is the ideal market to begin our US journey and we have no doubt that our extensive game library will resonate with its BetRivers players.
“This is just the beginning. We’ll be looking to explore more collaborative opportunities with RSI in our bid to become provider of choice for casino fans in West Virginia and across the country as more states liberalize their outlook on iGaming.”
Rush Street Interactive’s CEO, Richard Schwartz, added: “We are so pleased to extend our partnership with Hacksaw Gaming into the US, after our successful launch with them in Ontario last month.
“We are thrilled to further enhance our industry leading online casino portfolio and entertainment experience at BetRivers.com in West Virginia, by adding Hacksaw’s exciting mix of new and popular casino games.”
