The National Basketball Association (NBA) and La Française des Jeux (FDJ) – the operator of France’s national lottery and one of the world’s largest sports betting companies – announced a new multiyear expansion of their partnership in France.

Under the partnership, ParionsSport will continue to use official NBA betting data and branding across its digital and retail offerings.  French NBA fans will be provided with exclusive benefits and authentic experiences, including access to NBA games in the U.S., official NBA merchandise and engaging products through FDJ’s betting platforms, with over 100 bets available per game.  Building on their support of the NBA’s first-ever regular season game in France, as Associate Partner of The NBA Paris Game 2020 presented by beIN SPORTS, ParionsSport will also partner on future NBA games in France.

The partnership sees the continued collaboration on the popular, localised free-to-play prediction game “NBA Pick‘Em Weekly 6 presented by ParionsSport”.  This gaming experience offers French fans the chance to win prizes by predicting the result of six NBA games each week during the regular season at nba.com/pickem.

“We are delighted to expand our partnership with La Française des Jeux, an industry leader in the French sports betting landscape,” said Kuljeet Sindhar, Senior Director, International Fantasy & Gaming, NBA.  “With the 2020-21 NBA season about to tip off on December 22, the league is looking forward to uniting millions of NBA fans and FDJ customers across France, providing another touchpoint for those fans who choose to engage with the NBA through betting.”

“We are thrilled to continue our partnership with the NBA, the world’s most iconic basketball league,” said Head of Sports betting for FDJ, Richard Courtois.  “The NBA is synonymous with basketball and represents the pinnacle of the sport.  Through this partnership, our sports betting portfolio will gain even more visibility, with our customers and NBA fans alike able to enjoy unique experiences.  This partnership will be key to the growth of the ParionsSport brand over the next few years.”

beIN SPORTS presenter Mary Patrux will continue in her role as ParionsSport ambassador, providing weekly predictions and tips on ParionsSport social media channels, with popular NBA YouTubers and social media influencers TrashTalk also joining the ParionsSport team.

The expanded partnership will be promoted in 27,000 retail locations in France and across ParionsSport and the NBA’s digital assets, including NBA.com, the NBA App and NBA France social media platforms.

Sports betting continues to be a growth area for FDJ, representing 21% of FDJ’s total stakes in 2019.  FDJ saw an increase of more than 40% in bets on the NBA since 2019.

High-volatility 6×6 cluster slot goes live to operators and aggregators via Million Games on 30 June 2026.

Million Games has launched Skull King’s Treasure, a high-volatility cluster slot developed in partnership with Million Stars studio Arcane Pixel. The game becomes available to operators and aggregators through the Million Games distribution network on 30 June 2026.

The title is Arcane Pixel’s first release under the Million Games brand. It runs on a 6×6 grid with a cluster pay mechanic, paying on connections of five or more matching symbols and using cascading wins to enable multiple outcomes from a single spin.

Gameplay is built around Wild generation and multiplier progression via the Skull King mechanic. Winning Wild symbols are absorbed to increase the multiplier for subsequent cascades, linking continued wins with increased payout potential.

A Free Spins mode triggers on four or more Scatter symbols and awards up to 10 spins. During Free Spins, the multiplier does not reset between spins.

“With Skull King’s Treasure, Arcane Pixel has delivered a confident first release,” said Thomas Nimstad, CEO of Million Games. “The game combines familiar cluster mechanics with strong multiplier progression, creating a clear and engaging experience with real upside. It’s exactly the kind of partner-driven innovation the Million Stars programme is built to support.” Million Games said the title has a maximum win potential of 10,000x the bet.
