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.”

Argentina
Blask data shows LATAM casino lobbies diverge beyond Pragmatic Play’s baseline
Brazil stands out for crash-game visibility, while Argentina fragments across 15 providers, according to Blask’s review of five markets.
Blask has published new data on casino lobby distribution across five Latin American markets—Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Peru—finding a shared baseline of Pragmatic Play dominance but sharply different secondary content patterns by country.
Across all five markets, Pragmatic Play “consistently dominates the top 30 most-distributed titles,” accounting for up to 16 positions in each country, Blask said. Beyond that layer, Blask argues there is “no single playbook” for how operators and aggregators build lobbies.
Brazil is the clearest outlier for mechanics, with crash-style titles such as Aviator and JetX appearing in the top 30, while similar formats are “largely absent” in the other markets analyzed. Blask also points to Brazil as the only country where Pocket Games Soft holds a meaningful distribution share, driven by its Fortune series.
Mexico shows the opposite pattern: the highest concentration of Pragmatic Play titles and a thinner secondary layer. Blask flagged Endorphina as an example of a provider appearing in Mexico’s top 30 but not elsewhere in its dataset.
Argentina is described as the most fragmented market, with 15 different providers represented in the top 30—more than any other country in the analysis—and broader visibility for live and table content. Chile “closely mirrors Mexico” structurally, Blask said, but includes a single non-Pragmatic title with near-ubiquitous placement across operator lobbies. Peru, meanwhile, spreads remaining top-30 positions across 12 providers, including studios not seen in the other markets and “legacy European brands such as Novomatic.”
Blask’s conclusion is that operators should not assume a winning lobby mix in one country will translate regionally. “Beyond the dominant layer, performance is defined not by regional trends, but by local player behavior and demand signals,” the company said.

Same providers, different games: Blask uncovers hidden patterns in LATAM casino lobbies
Casino lobbies across Latin America may look similar at first glance — but a deeper look reveals they operate on entirely different logic. According to new data from Blask, all five major region players (Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Peru) share one common layer: Pragmatic Play consistently dominates the top 30 most-distributed titles, accounting for up to 16 positions in each market. But everything beyond that baseline tells a different story.
Crash games cluster in Brazil but not elsewhere
Brazil is the only market where crash-style mechanics achieve consistent visibility at the lobby level. Titles like Aviator and JetX both rank among the top 30, while similar formats are largely absent in the other four markets. At the same time, Brazil is the only country where a second provider, Pocket Games Soft, secures a meaningful share of distribution, driven entirely by its Fortune series. This dual pattern suggests a highly specific local demand profile rather than a regional trend.
Mexico runs on a tighter playbook
While Brazil expands, Mexico narrows. The market shows the highest concentration of Pragmatic Play titles and one of the most limited secondary layers. At the same time, it introduces isolated signals that don’t scale regionally such as the presence of Endorphina, which appears in the Mexican top 30 but nowhere else in the dataset.
Argentina breaks the pattern entirely
Argentina stands apart as the most fragmented market in the region. Its top 30 includes 15 different providers which is more than any other country analyzed. Unlike neighboring markets, where a handful of suppliers dominate, Argentina distributes visibility across a wide range of studios, particularly in live and table segments. The result is a lobby structure that resists standardization.
Chile shows how a single game can outperform the system
Chile closely mirrors Mexico in overall structure but with one key exception. A single non-Pragmatic title achieves near-ubiquitous placement across operator lobbies, becoming one of the strongest outliers in the entire dataset.This suggests that even in highly concentrated markets, individual titles can break through if they match local demand precisely.
Peru stretches the long tail further than anyone else
Peru takes the opposite approach to Mexico. While maintaining the same Pragmatic baseline, it distributes the remaining positions across 12 different providers, many of which do not appear in any other LATAM market analyzed. This includes both niche studios and legacy European brands such as Novomatic, pointing to a mix of underserved demand segments and alternative content sourcing strategies.
One region, no single playbook
The key takeaway from the analysis is simple: LATAM is not a unified market when it comes to content distribution. The same providers appear everywhere but the way their games are positioned, combined, and supplemented varies dramatically from country to country. For operators, this means that copying a successful lobby structure from one market to another is unlikely to work. Beyond the dominant layer, performance is defined not by regional trends, but by local player behavior and demand signals.
