Scientific Games and its OpenGaming platform, along with its industry leading OpenBet sports technology and content, is now live in the newly-regulated online market of the Netherlands after launching with the Netherlands Lottery, the country’s national provider of games of chance and sports betting in The Netherlands.

With annual turnover of more than €1.3 billion, NLO was formed in 2016 after the merger of the Dutch State Lottery and De Lotto. They are the largest gambling organization in the Netherlands with a leading entertainment portfolio that includes: Staatsloterij, Lotto, Eurojackpot, Miljoenenspel, Lucky Day, Scratch Cards and TOTO.

Scientific Games is a long-time partner of NLO with a long partnership through cutting-edge sports betting technology and instant lottery games. The Company successfully optimized its sports betting and iGaming technology to meet the requirements of the newly-regulated European market, which officially opened October 1, 2021.

NLO is equipped with the comprehensive digital and modular OpenBet product suite, which includes the reliable and scalable betting engine, along with its managed trading services and access to full pre-match, in-play and risk management services.

TOTO, the new online sportsbook and casino brand from Nederlandse Loterij, has utilized OpenGaming, the industry’s leading content aggregation platform that consists of in-house developed games and popular releases from a range of third-party providers.

Nederlandse Loterij has also deployed SportCast’s pioneering BetBuilder product, which allows players to build bets across multiple markets on a single game with instant pricing. In addition, the state operator is now offering a greater and more granular range of singles markets, as well as SportCast’s Fast Track BetBuilder product, a high margin quick-pick solution that broadens its appeal to a wider audience.

Sam Depoortere, Business Director TOTO sportsbook and casino at Nederlandse Loterij, said: “This is a landmark moment in the history of Nederlandse Loterij and we are proud to have the OpenBet technology and content and the OpenGaming ecosystem power our newly-regulated sportsbook and igaming offering. We are excited to bring an improved player experience for the Dutch market and take our overall offering to the next level. Over the coming months and years, we are in a strong position to attract a wide audience thanks to our premium product portfolio of sports and gaming.”

Nikos Konstakis, VP Sports Product at OpenBet, said: “Delivering regulated in-play sports betting entertainment to the Netherlands is an exciting move for us. OpenBet technology, content and services is live across multiple continents across the globe, and this latest launch in a key European territory has the potential to deliver even more opportunities. Congratulations to our partner Nederlandse Loterij, and with our full technology stack and content proposition, together we will bring unmissable sports betting experiences for Dutch players.”

SBK, the pioneering online sportsbook operator, has teamed up with The Tenth Man, a disruptive creative agency, to launch “Betting without the Bullshit”—a bold, no-nonsense, fully AI-generated 360° campaign ahead of the Premier League season. The campaign marks a category first in sports betting marketing, demonstrating the potential of AI in both creative concept and execution.

At the heart of the campaign is a stripped-back, visually arresting 20-second hero spot that cuts through the clichés, noise, and gimmicks often seen in betting ads. With a clear, confident tone, the ad showcases SBK’s “Best Price” product innovation and best odds promise—no fluff, no distractions.

Conceived, designed, and produced entirely using advanced AI tools by The Tenth Man’s creative team, the campaign is a testament to how AI can accelerate creative timelines while pushing the boundaries of originality and quality.

“At SBK, we’ve always stood for fairness, transparency, and the best odds in the market. ‘Betting without the Bullshit’ says exactly that—no gimmicks, no spin, and a subtle nod to our roots in finance,” said Adam Baylis, Marketing Director at SBK. “Partnering with The Tenth Man on a fully AI-generated campaign allowed us to move quickly, stand out from the crowd, and launch something genuinely different for the new season.”

Ken Robertson, Founder & CEO of The Tenth Man, added:
“We wanted to show what happens when you ditch the overblown nonsense and get to the point—in both message and production. This isn’t AI for the sake of it. It’s AI used to push creative boundaries and get a bold idea into the world faster than the old rules allow.”

The campaign is now live across SBK’s digital and social platforms, with targeted placements timed to coincide with the Premier League’s kick-off, aiming to redefine how sportsbooks connect with modern audiences.

Million Games Launches Temple X: A New Jungle-Themed Crash Adventure and Follow-Up to Chicken X

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Million Games, the innovative game studio known for its bold and player-first creations, has announced the release of Temple X, a brand-new crash-style adventure game and the thrilling sequel to the fan-favorite Chicken X.

Set high above a misty jungle canopy, Temple X invites players to guide fearless adventurer Texas Jones across the perilous Trail of Echoes—a sky-high path of crumbling stones and rising cash rewards. With each step forward, the potential payout grows. The catch? Players can cash out at any time or risk it all for a final challenge: the Wheel of Echoes—a weathered treasure wheel that randomly boosts or reduces the total reward.


Game Features:

  • Crash mechanics reimagined with a thrilling jungle adventure setting

  • Three trail difficulty levels with rising multipliers: Explorer, Adventurer, and Legend

  • Treasure Wheel finale offering random mystery cash outcomes

  • 96.50% RTP and a maximum win of 10,000x


“With Temple X, we wanted to build on everything players loved about Chicken X — the excitement, the simplicity, the decision-making — but raise the stakes even further,” said Thomas Nimstad, CEO at Million Games. “The addition of the Treasure Wheel was our way of making the ending more engaging and unpredictable. Players who reach it face one last, thrilling decision — spin for a potentially bigger prize or risk losing what they’ve collected. It’s an extra layer of excitement at the end of an already suspenseful game.”


Temple X is now live and available for integration through Million Games’ platform and partner network.
