Atlaslive Concludes ICE Barcelona 2026: Regulation, Safer Gaming, and Faster Platform Execution Define 2026 Outlook
Atlaslive, a global B2B iGaming technology provider, has wrapped up a productive week at ICE Barcelona 2026, where the industry gathered at Fira Barcelona Gran Via from 19–21 January to define key priorities for the year ahead.

With ICE Barcelona further strengthening its position as a core meeting place for iGaming stakeholders, the event programme highlighted a consistent market direction: regulatory evolution is accelerating, safer gaming requirements are expanding, and operators need product ecosystems that can scale across multiple jurisdictions without compromising player protection. These themes were reflected through sessions such as the World Regulatory Briefing focused on global policy and compliance frameworks, as well as workshops on cybercrime & fraud, safer gaming, and the iGaming customer journey.
For Atlaslive, the event conversations reinforced a clear operational reality across the industry—operators are building growth strategies around platforms that support regulated market expansion, risk control, and faster, more reliable UX delivery.
Atlaslive representatives also completed several interviews during the show, discussing platform strategy and industry expectations across operations, marketing, security, compliance, and responsible gaming.
“ICE Barcelona made it clear that the industry is entering a much more structured and mature phase,” said Anastasiia Poltavets, CMO at Atlaslive. “The focus is shifting from experimentation to efficiency—how fast you can launch, how well you can scale, and how confidently you can operate in regulated environments.”

Across its meetings with operators and partners, Atlaslive discussed market entry demands, infrastructure readiness, and the practical execution behind long-term retention. Topics included reducing friction in onboarding, payments, and player support, as well as integrating responsible gaming tools into the core platform UX rather than positioning them as separate add-ons.
As 2026 progresses amid continued regulatory updates and rising user expectations, Atlaslive will keep advancing platform development to support compliance readiness, safer play tooling, and faster delivery of product experiences across regulated markets.

| Michigan | 172 | 20 |
| West Virginia | 171 | 21 |
| Pennsylvania & New Jersey | 169 | 22 |
Key Insights from Legal Online Casino States
Here are a few of the key findings from this research:
1. Slots Dominate Regulated Markets
Slots are the top-searched casino game in every legal online casino state except New Jersey, reinforcing slots as the primary driver of online casino interest in regulated U.S. markets.
2. New Jersey Stands Out with Roulette-Led Interest
New Jersey is the only legal online casino state where roulette outranked slots as the most searched game in 2025. This indicates a more diversified player base with a stronger interest in live dealer and table games.
3. Search Interest is Tightly Clustered Across Legal States
Michigan, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey all ranked closely together nationally (positions 20–22), with very similar search interest scores.
Methodology
BetMGM Casino analysed Google search trends to assess nationwide interest in casino games over a 12-month period, covering January 1 to December 31, 2025.
Search interest was measured across five core casino game categories:
- Casino
- Slots
- Poker
- Blackjack
- Roulette
Only the generic category terms (for example, “slots”, “poker”, and “casino”) were analyzed. No modifiers such as “online”, “real money”, or brand-specific keywords were included. This approach ensures the data reflects overall interest in casino games, rather than being influenced by regulatory differences, platform availability, or other variables in individual states. It is critical to note Google Trends is strongest when you compare high-volume, generic terms.
Google Trends scores were used to compare relative search interest by state, with values scaled from 0 to 100 per category, where 100 represents the highest level of search interest observed during the period analysed.
This methodology allows for a consistent, like-for-like comparison of casino game popularity across the United States, highlighting regional interest patterns and broader gambling trends rather than online-only behavior.
