Overall, 20 of Hacksaws’ slot games will roll out within the first batch, which are due to be released mid-December. Hit titles such as Wanted Dead or a Wild, Chaos Crew and Stack ‘Em are among the first to be released.
Marcus Cordes, COO of Hacksaw Gaming, said: “It’s fantastic to be ending the year on such a high, Spain has been on our radar for a while and it’s great to obtain approval to go live in another one of Europe’s regulated markets. 2021 has been a year of milestones and we are sure that 2022 is going to continue this trend! We look forward to players enjoying the first batch of our games whilst we plan to release more content during Q1 next year”

Regulating the Game Adds Session “Industry Collaborations in Research” to Provide Guidance for Best Practices
Gambling law and regulation conference Regulating the Game announced an insightful session titled “Industry Collaborations in Research,” presented by Tracy Schrans, President of Focal Research Consultants.
This session will delve into findings from Focal Research’s groundbreaking collaboration with the University of Nevada, Las Vegas International Gaming Institute, addressing the critical question: Is there a right time to interact with players during a continuous play session?
The presentation will feature:
• An in-depth analysis of real-world behavioural tracking data.
• Insights into who is more likely to engage in extended play sessions and why.
• Practical implications for safer gambling practices, including identifying optimal times for player interactions to prevent and minimise harm.
“While the findings challenge traditional assumptions about continuous play and risk, they provide invaluable guidance for shaping best practices around player interactions,” the organsers said.
Tracy Schrans, alongside Dr. Tony Schellinck, pioneered the use of player-tracking data to develop algorithms for detecting and managing customer risk and harm. As President of Focal Research Consultants, she leads innovative research and collaborates with global stakeholders to set new standards for responsible gambling. Her work has received international acclaim for leveraging data and technology to identify at-risk gamblers and implement harm mitigation strategies effectively.
“Through research-driven insights, we can redefine when and how to engage with players in ways that prioritize their safety and well-being. This session highlights the power of collaboration between industry and academia to advance responsible gambling practices,” said Tracy Schrans.
Attendees will gain actionable insights into how cutting-edge research can drive more effective gambling harm prevention strategies. “This session is a must for industry leaders, regulators, and stakeholders seeking to enhance their understanding of player behavior and develop evidence-based solutions,” organisers said.
Regulating the Game is a flagship event, that brings together global leaders, regulators and industry professionals to tackle public policy and regulatory challenges. The conference fosters meaningful dialogue and innovation to support efficient and effective gambling regulation. The conference will be held at the Sofitel Sydney Darling Harbour from March 10–13, 2025.

BGaming Secures Approval for Brazil
Rapidly expanding content provider continues LatAm expansion by certifying its games in Brazil.
Popular iGaming content provider BGaming is proud to announce it has received full certification and is now ready to enter the Brazilian market.
BGaming’s technical system of gaming software and portfolio have received approval from Gaming Associates Labs (GA Lab) and Gaming Laboratories International (GLI), certifying that its products are fully compliant and eligible to enter the Brazilian market. GLI is among the industry’s most rigorous testing bodies, ensuring providers fully comply with industry standards before entering a market.
By securing these certificates, BGaming can now open the door to working with licensed operators within Brazil. Brazilian players will have the opportunity to experience BGaming’s innovative portfolio for the first time, including creative titles like Snoop Dogg Dollars, Panda Luck, and Aztec Clusters.
This entry into Brazil represents a pivotal moment in BGaming’s global expansion strategy, particularly as it focuses on the burgeoning Latin American market. The company was recently awarded a supplier’s certification to enter Peru and Columbia at the end of 2024, further highlighting its commitment to growth in the region.
Antonina Ivanova, Head of Legal & Compliance at BGaming, said: “Brazil is one of the most dynamic iGaming markets in the world right now. Receiving this approval is a massive milestone for BGaming and a testament to our entire team’s hard work and dedication.
“Latin America plays a pivotal role in our global expansion strategy, and securing this certification makes a strong statement about the company’s intention to shake things up throughout 2025. We are committed to putting our products in front of as many players as possible, and we cannot wait to hit the ground running in Brazil.”
