Popular game developer latest to join a prestigious list of studios to gain direct access to online casino affiliates via innovative platform

NetGaming, the developer of bold and striking online slot games, has joined the growing list of studios to partner with First Look Games in a bid to boost marketing activity around its content portfolio.

By becoming a First Look Games partner, NetGaming will gain direct access to hundreds of online casino affiliates for the first time and can share with them information and assets for its existing portfolio of games and all future releases.

This includes game information sheets and marketing assets such as logos, images and videos of games being played. These are uploaded to the First Look Games Library where they can be downloaded individually or in bulk by affiliates.

Assets can also be uploaded two weeks prior to game launch so that a select number of affiliates can have a “first look” at the information in order to create content ahead of go live which is then published in prime positions across their sites once the game hits operator lobbies.

NetGaming recently launched a new branded slot, MTV Pimp My Ride, based on the popular MTV show with information and assets for the game now available through the First Look Games Library.

First Look Games also allows developers to push notifications about network promotions, bonus campaigns and operator partnerships to affiliate members, further increasing potential exposure for their games and brands.

Tom Galanis, Director at First Look Games, said: “NetGaming is a cracking addition to our growing roster of popular game developers and will garner incredible interest among our affiliate partners looking to be the first to post about their latest game launches.

“First Look Games was founded in order to allow game developers to directly connect with affiliate publishers and to leverage the tremendous marketing value they can provide to online casino players in markets around the world and we are thrilled to be helping NetGaming in this regard.”

Pallavi Deshmukh, CEO at NetGaming, said: “First Look Games is a powerful marketing platform for us and our games, and we are delighted to be able to share news of our latest slot releases – in particular MTV Pimp My Ride – with its network of affiliates.

“We believe affiliates provide a significant marketing opportunity for developers and that as a studio we can also provide them with the information and assets they need to create incredible content that will engage their readers.

“I’d like to thank First Look Games for providing the platform and network to enable us to do this.”

New Blask heatmap tracks real-time interest across World Cup 2026 nations

Blask has launched the Blask World Cup Index, a free interactive map showing daily interest across the majority of the 48 nations competing in the 2026 tournament. It runs for the duration of the competition.

Blask updates the map every 24 hours. Countries where interest towards the major football tournament grows over the previous day turn green. Countries where it fell turn red. Unchanged markets stay grey. Hover over any country for a quick snapshot, click through for a multi-day view, or follow the leaderboard of the fastest-rising and falling markets.

What the Blask World Cup Index measures
Blask World Cup Index draws from the Blask Index, Blask’s measure of iGaming search volume within a given market. On the landing page it tracks football related categories: how actively people in each country are searching for odds, match markets and other football-related content tied to the 2026 tournament.

Country cards show day-by-day trends; a daily leaderboard surfaces the daily World Cup Index and its change with the previous day. Visitors can track how interest in their country builds in the days before their team’s next match and how fast it collapses after an exit. The leaderboard shows which nation leads the index and how that position shifts with results. For operators and affiliates, the most actionable view is a market where interest is growing faster than the team’s performance would predict — the signal that precedes a volume spike.

After a 4-1 victory over Paraguay, the United States leads our World Cup Interest Index with 14.4 million demand points — more than three times ahead of second-placed Brazil (4.28 million), despite the Seleção’s global popularity. Germany sits third with 3.15 million following a 7-1 win over Curaçao, while England (2.53 million) and Egypt (2.22 million) round out the top five ahead of their opening group-stage matches.

To put the 2026 data in context, Blask has published two research reports drawing on iGaming activity across the 2018 and 2022 World Cups — one covering six European markets (UK, Germany, France, Spain, the Netherlands, Italy), one covering six LATAM markets.

The data shows the effect is not automatic: Germany posted positive acquisition signals at both tournaments despite group-stage exits; Peru surged +41% in 2022 without qualifying; Colombia fell 14% the same year.

Both reports include country-level APS data, cross-market patterns, and 2026 projections.
