Ultimo GG Becomes Official Partner with World-Class Netherlands-Based FIFA Academy
Ultimo GG, which provides a platform that focuses on tournaments, streaming and video sharing, announced a new partnership with Team Gullit, the first professional and independent FIFA-academy in the world. Ultimo GG, the fully self-sustainable economy and ecosystem that rewards gamers and content creators for everything they do and with a fair chance to earn ULTGG, will team up with Team Gullit’s talented esports players, who have proven themselves to be among the most promising talents in FIFA.
As part of the partnership, Ultimo GG will serve as the exclusive cryptocurrency partner for Team Gullit, whose academy provides their talent with professional mentoring and training to help them take their game to the next level. Ultimo GG will activate this partnership through offering world-class pro team management, player scouting and academies to their football club partners. In addition, Ultimo GG will offer bootcamps and training to fans. They will also provide a full 360-degree offering from esports events to pro-team management, and the partnership will feature a variety of content across digital platforms.
“We are really excited to partner with Team Gullit,” said Ultimo GG COO, Ben Husted. “Partnering with a world-class FIFA academy will help us give our various partners the best possible chance of success when it comes to player scouting, pro-team management and organisation of esports events. We look forward to collaborating on future projects with Team Gullit, and we are grateful to them for believing in our vision, spirit and endeavour.”
Besides the FIFA-related coaching, Team Gullit helps its players with combining education and gaming and teaches them how to build a personal brand on social media. Through this new partnership, the Team Gullit talent will have the opportunity to prove their skills in tournaments that feature the most prominent gaming titles in the world, with prizes ranging from high-end hardware to monetary rewards.
“Team Gullit has the ambition to become the world’s most renowned FIFA team. By partnering with Ultimo GG, we can further build on that vision,” said Corné Dubelaar, Founder of Team Gullit. “Ultimo GG focuses on developing esports for their partnered professional football clubs, and we can support them by offering world-class scouting, training, and coaching. Over the past couple of years, we have won several major titles in FIFA, and we will be helping Ultimo and the partnered football clubs to find their way to success as well.”
Beginning life as an esports events company, Ultimo GG has recently been placing greater focus on digital to unite diverse communities around the globe. In August 2021, Ultimo GG signed an esports partnership with EFL Championship football club Birmingham City F.C. to assemble a new esports team for the club, host tournaments, events, and boot camps. In July 2021, Ultimo GG made history by sending the first ever NFT into space along with their ULTGG tokens. Ultimo GG also has secured partnerships with Win GG, Elite Sports Marketing and CryptoLoja.

Games Global and Fortune Factory Studios wrap up 2025 with supercharged sequel Gold Blitz Express™
Games Global and its exclusive studio partner, Fortune Factory Studios, have launched a high-voltage finale to 2025 with Gold Blitz Express
, the latest iteration of its dynamic franchise.
Building on the proven popular foundations of its predecessors, Gold Blitz Express retains the titular cash collect mechanic and bonus choice, but amps up the sequel with a brand-new Blitz Express feature and deeper bonus progression.
The Blitz Express mechanic is activated when a train symbol lands on reel six on any spin. A train steams across the reels pulling up to 20 carts, with each awarding a cash prize or one of four fixed jackpots, the total value of which is collected and awarded.
The studio has also elevated Gold Blitz spins with the introduction of an Accumulation Trail, which collects each Blitz symbol that hits. Every third collected awards additional spins and an increasing multiplier, with up to 14 spins and a 5x maximum multiplier, surging win potential.
Supplementing the action further is the integration of Games Global’s Rising Rewards jackpot, where every coin boosts the prize pot up to 200x, which can be randomly paid out.
The Gold Blitz series continues to define industry trends from a player control perspective. In addition to the bonus choice and bonus buy options, a Win Booster doubles the likelihood of activating features, while Bonus Recharge offers an opportunity to purchase an extra spin following feature completion.
Gold Blitz Express represents the latest evolution of one of the industry’s most diverse, battle-tested game franchises, spotlighting Fortune Factory Studios’ continued commitment to creating products that perform.
Alexander Monsma, Team Manager, Game Sales at Games Global, said: “2025 marks the fourth consecutive year that we have unveiled a Gold Blitz game toward the end of December – it is the perfect way to ring in the new year.
“Gold Blitz Express is the most feature-rich upgrade to date, electrifying the environment with even more variety and potential.”
David Reynolds, Director of Games Strategy & Partner Management at Games Global, added: “The Gold Blitz brand remains one of the strongest franchises in our portfolio, and Gold Blitz Express builds on that success by extending the series with genuine depth. The introduction of new elements, such as the Blitz Express feature, feels like a natural evolution of the brand.
“It’s a fitting way to close out 2025, with the continued performance of the series reflecting Fortune Factory’s ability to create games with lasting appeal and sustained engagement. We can’t wait to showcase our upcoming lineup within this franchise and more as we enter 2026.”
