Platform and aggregator Groove has announced that leading Asian games studio KA Gaming is now live with KA Gaming’s portfolio about to hit the magic 400 games landmark. KA Gaming have released six games this month, GO GO Magic Dog, Fantasy Dragons, Solomon’s Treasure, Dragon Boat2Lock 2 Spin, Bigfoot Yeti and Hunter Helibu, keeping to a frenetic games release schedule of over 10 games monthly.

KA Gaming is one of the largest games providers in Asia and has carved out an outstanding international reputation based on a highly diversified portfolio, beautiful thematics and immersive gameplay. Founded in 2014, KA Gaming has released a number of slots games for the land-based, online and mobile casino markets, as well as fish games, which are extremely popular globally. Currently KA Gaming has 18 fish games in the portfolio.

With a combined experience of over 30 years in slots games development, the team behind KA Gaming are well placed to expand the range with more unique titles along with others that provide familiar symbols, settings and features, such as Luck 88, Treasure Bowl, Bonus Mania, Golden Bull, Treasure Tiger, King of Dragon, Monkey Maniac, Fortune Ganesha, Fu Shenlong; innovative fish-shooting games like KA Fish Hunter, Golden Dragon, Fishing Expedition, Poseidon’s Secret, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, King Octopus and 1942, amongst others, that are one of the top gambling categories in Asia.

Fish shooting games are based on a devilishly simple but immersive play mechanic. A group of players shoot fish with currency cannons for rewards, the last shot claiming all the reward invested by players in that fish. The cannons are placed on various sides of the screen, and everyone shoots the same pool of fish. Players must decide which fish to shoot; it is much easier to kill a small fish for fewer rewards than a large fish for bigger rewards. Fish also float in and out of the screen, so players have to keep track of whether the fish has just entered the screen or is about to swim out.

KA Gaming’s portfolio supports well over 100 currencies, including many cryptocurrencies and with an average RTP of 96% KA Gaming’s slots are considered fair and attractive to players around the world and are in-demand with operators in many regions for their range of choice that embraces hundreds of slots, fish games, baccarat, super video poker and super keno.

Groove is an award-winning platform and aggregator powered by technology innovation providing operators with the ability to activate a range of features that enhance customer experience and engagement, improve retention, encourage extended play and produce a higher yield.

Groove’s ever-expanding collection of games from latest releases to time-worn classics is rapidly becoming one of the biggest content platforms and the company is adding to the portfolio at a rapid rate through partnerships like the one with KA Gaming which will see over 100 games added this year from the dynamic studio.

Groove has rapidly built a powerful operator cluster around its technology and is supported by one of the strongest technical teams in the industry as the game aggregator of choice for a cluster of more than 60 operators. Groove’s powerful platform includes thousands of casino games as well as a wealth of aggregated content ranging from slots, sportsbook, online casino and live casino, to poker and table games, that operators can access via easy integration to drive player engagement and revenue.

Daniel Huang, CEO of KA Gaming, said: “Groove is an important distribution channel and we are pleased to reinforce their Asian content while gaining access through them to key European, African and South American markets. We’re interested to see how our fish games fare and anticipate that the thematics in our slots will give operators and players something different that is attuned to the fast-paced evolution of the market.”

Yahale Meltzer, COO at Groove said: “There’s no doubt that everyone in the industry will find something that they can align with and make money from in our game library, which has just had an injection of new content from KA Gaming. The Groove brand is synonymous with quickly seeing opportunities and we’re delighted to work with an enterprising game developer like KA Gaming who brings a lot to the table.”

The Playa strategic advisor will publish on VIP operations, segmentation and retention, starting with an anonymous VIP Operations Survey 2026.

Gamblers Connect has confirmed Gali Hartuv, Strategic Advisor at The Playa, as the seventh voice to join its 2026 Contributors Program.

The independent B2B iGaming media platform said the programme will reveal one senior industry voice per month throughout 2026, with contributors publishing under the Gamblers Connect Contributor Editorial Code.

Gamblers Connect said Hartuv has more than 15 years’ experience in VIP management, including designing and optimising VIP programmes across more than 50 operator brands, and training “hundreds of professionals” now working in VIP roles across the industry.

Hartuv will publish across four areas: building VIP programmes that drive long-term value; AI-powered VIP identification and player segmentation; hyper-personalisation and retention strategy; and scaling VIP operations across different markets and cultures. His first contribution is a VIP Operations Survey 2026, an anonymous survey intended to benchmark how VIP teams work across iGaming operators, including portfolio sizing, tools, qualification thresholds, workflow standards and where time is spent during the week.

Partnerships and Operations Lead, Luka Dimitrijevic, said: “VIP management is where a great deal of an operator’s value is won or lost, and very few people can speak to it with Gali’s depth. He has spent his career turning high value player relationships into a discipline rather than guesswork, and he is refreshingly candid about what works and what does not. Through the Contributors Program he will share practical insight on VIP strategy, retention, and the smart use of AI, with content grounded in real results rather than recycled best practices.”

St8 has extended its partnership with TonyBet into Alberta, expanding their Canada footprint following an earlier launch in Ontario this year.

Under the expanded agreement, TonyBet will use St8’s game aggregation platform through a single API integration. St8 said this provides access to its wider catalogue of casino content for players in Alberta.

St8 said the Alberta rollout follows its newly acquired registration to operate in the province as an iGaming Services Supplier, allowing it to provide aggregation services to licensed operators in the market. The company said its platform connects partners to more than 200 game providers via a single API.

David Fall, Business Development Manager at St8, said:

“Entering Alberta’s regulated market is a strong step for St8 that represents our continued efforts to bring our offerings to as many territories as possible, delivering top-tier results for partnerships at the local, national and international stage. We share this commitment with TonyBet, a company that we are very fortunate to be working with so collaboratively and closely as we continue to grow our presence across North America.”

Kiryl Liudvikevich, Head of Product at TonyBet, said:

“We’re proud that our work with St8 has enabled us to continue expanding across Canada. Through St8’s aggregation platform, we can seamlessly access games from the industry’s leading providers via a single integration, helping us scale efficiently while maintaining a strong focus on the player experience. St8 has cemented itself as our go-to partner for expansion into regulated markets, and we look forward to continuing our collaboration as we grow into new jurisdictions.”

Casino game aggregation platform and full-service technology provider St8 has extended its ongoing partnership with TonyBet into Alberta, furthering both companies’ expansion into Canada.

As part of the extended agreement, Tonybet will benefit from St8’s next-generation platform via a single API integration, unlocking seamless access to a wide portfolio of games from the industry’s leading providers and enhancing its casino offering for players in Alberta.

The move is the latest in St8’s successful relationship with TonyBet, having previously launched in Ontario earlier this year in a bid to continually grow in regulated markets worldwide.

This expansion was made possible thanks to St8’s newly acquired registration to operate in Alberta as an iGaming Services Supplier, enabling St8 to provide its next-generation game aggregation services to licensed operators in the region, giving partners access to more than 200 premium game providers through a single API integration.

Featuring over 3,000 games from more than 60 providers, TonyBet, meanwhile, has gone from strength to strength in its 17-year history, establishing itself as one of the industry’s leading game studios by delivering engaging titles that combine player appeal with premium gameplay.

Holding licenses in 10 different jurisdictions including Spain, the Netherlands, the UK, Ireland and Estonia, among others, Tonybet’s partnership with St8 has seen them now launch in two separate territories in Canada, with both companies working collaboratively to explore the opportunities available in exciting new markets. This latest agreement reinforces St8’s strategy of expanding its premium content portfolio while helping operators simplify integration, accelerate market entry, and deliver engaging gaming experiences across multiple regulated jurisdictions.

Speaking on the expansion, David Fall, Business Development Manager at St8, said: “Entering Alberta’s regulated market is a strong step for St8 that represents our continued efforts to bring our offerings to as many territories as possible, delivering top-tier results for partnerships at the local, national and international stage. We share this commitment with TonyBet, a company that we are very fortunate to be working with so collaboratively and closely as we continue to grow our presence across North America.”
