HITSqwad selects Black Cow for RGS platform

Innovative studio focussing on jackpot slots will use the provider’s cutting-edge remote game server to develop its pioneering content
HITSqwad, a dynamic new game studio that plans to become the number one provider of jackpot games, has put pen to paper on a partnership deal with Black Cow Technology as it moves closer to debuting its first run of games.
Under the deal, HITSqwad will use Black Cow’s flexible and proven remote game server to develop its hotly anticipated jackpot slots. The partnership comes shortly after the studio announced a distribution deal with content aggregator, Playzido.
HITSqwad is run by a team of industry experts that have identified a gap in the market for flexible and customizable jackpot games that meet the regulatory requirements in each of the markets that operators target.
Each jackpot theme will have a family of games underneath that ensures the HITSqwad game suite is varied, while also allowing operators to identify the themes and brands that engage their players and then add additional games to ensure the longevity of each product.
Black Cow’s Open Gaming Architecture is a scalable, modular RGS platform that will allow HITSqwad to rapidly build and launch its games.
Each title will be developed with a mobile-first approach and will ensure the highest levels of player engagement by providing innovative and exciting features to trigger each and every jackpot. HITSqwad’s first jackpot slots are set for launch via Playzido early 2022.
Charl Geyser, CEO of HITSqwad, said: “Our partnership with Black Cow Technology is an important one for HITSqwad as it gives us a highly advanced RGS and platform on which we can rapidly develop and deploy innovative and pioneering functionality within our jackpot games.
“We are an ambitious studio and in Black Cow we have a partner that understands what we are looking to do and can provide the technology we need to achieve our goal. I look forward to a long and successful partnership between HITSqwad and Black Cow.”
Tony Plaskow, Commercial Director at Black Cow Technology, said: “I’m delighted to welcome HITSqwad to the Black Cow family. We are a pure B2B company that is focused on providing our partners with leading technology solutions to achieve exactly what they need.
“We provide full control and ownership for our partners over the RGS structure and deployment and I believe this will help HITSqwad achieve its goal of becoming the number one provider of jackpot games in the industry.”

Stats Perform Named Live Streaming Supplier of the Year at EGR B2B Awards 2025

Stats Perform has been named Live Streaming Supplier of the Year at the EGR B2B Awards 2025, in recognition of the strength, innovation, and global scale of its Bet LiveStreams platform for licensed sportsbook apps, websites and retail betting venues.
Bet LiveStreams, first launched as ‘Watch&Bet’ in 2005, now delivers more than 40,000 exclusive low-latency live events each year, across 15 sports. Football, the world’s largest betting sport, accounts for more than 15,000 matches, with rights including LaLiga, CONCACAF, English Football League and top domestic leagues and cups across Europe, South America, and APAC. Other sports include tennis, basketball, volleyball, darts, badminton, rugby and cricket.
Judges noted that Stats Perform’s Bet LiveStreams is unique because of its extensive year-long, round-the-clock coverage and high performance. In 2024, the platform securely delivered billions of live video sessions to hundreds of licensed global sportsbooks such as bet365, Betano, Superbet, Betfair, FanDuel and many more.
They also praised its interactive, built-for-betting features like betslip integration, instant highlights, and in-stream contextual stats (also known as Opta Interactive Overlays) that have made the watching and betting experience more engaging for bettors.
“Our focus with Bet LiveStreams has been to make live streams easy to watch and bettable, whoever is playing,” said Mike Perez, Chief Operating Officer at Stats Perform. “The features give bettors more entertainment from every stream, whether it’s a headline fixture like Tottenham v Liverpool in the Carabao Cup, or a six-goal thriller in South America that might otherwise have been overlooked. We’re delighted our efforts have been recognised with this award.”
The judging panel pointed to three standout recent Bet LiveStreams innovations:
- Opta Interactive Overlays: Live game and player stats and odds available directly in-stream, with bets added to the slip in one click
- Instant Highlights: Key moments can be replayed during the game to help bettors quickly catch up on relevant action, such as the moment their bet won, or see action they missed in other live games, with multi-game playlists across competitions
- Live Match Gallery: Easier discovery of concurrent events, helping bettors follow more matches and sports at the same time
Adoption of these features has been fast and operators have reported a 7x increase in interactions per session, longer watch times and more in-play bets placed.
“This award is a reflection of how far streaming can go when it’s built for betting, not just viewing. We’re excited to continue to integrate our Opta data and AI into the experience to make the future of streaming on sportsbooks more engaging, intuitive and bettable,” added Perez.

Spinomenal presents new slot: Queen of Oasis

Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has released its latest title, Queen of Oasis.
Set against the rolling ancient Egyptian dunes and lush, palm-lined oases, Queen of Oasis immerses players in an elegant world of riches. Camels, vultures, antelopes, snakes, and the powerful Queen herself bring this 5-reel slot to life. The reels sit within two ornate marble pillars where the bejewelled Queen represents the Wild symbol.
During the main game, the Queen counts for any symbol except Free Spins and Bonus symbols. Finding five Wild symbols on a winning line pays x2,000 the bet.
Queen of Oasis is a crowning triumph thanks to the two superb features, a Bonus game and Free Spins. Three or more Scattered Free Spins symbols trigger the special feature. Before Free Spins commence, players can either accept the current number awarded or throw caution to the wind to earn more – up to 50 free spins. Once activated, one to three stacked Wilds are placed on random reels during each spin and boosting potential returns.
The bonus game is initiated when three or more Scattered Bonus Symbols land on the reels. Players kick off with three spins and the goal is finding as many urns as possible to increase the multiplier metre which pays out once the spins are finished. Each sector of the multiplier metre is filled by five winning symbols and there is an opportunity to bag an extra spin by finding the +1 symbol.
Synced Reels and Expanding Reels add another exciting element to the Bonus Game.
Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Queen of Oasis is a beautiful blend of visual elegance and bold gameplay. Every feature has been created to captivate, reward, and raise the bar for what an Egyptian-themed slot can deliver.”
