MGA Games, specialists in developing and distributing premium content for online casinos, continues to back the conversion and marketing of top-of-the-line gaming products for the digital market. On this occasion, and as announced on MGA Games Day, the company is bringing the successful Magic Red Roulette to the online universe, the renowned land-based roulette game currently being played in over 6,000 installations in gambling halls and casinos around the world.

This achievement has been possible thanks to the agreement with SMI2000, the manufacturing company from Barcelona that launched the land-based roulette game in mid-2013, and who is responsible for developing this new version.

The collaboration between both companies has been remarkable, and further success is to come. Javier Lanfranchi, Sales Director of MGA Games, comments: “We are sure that Magic Red will be an ideal complement for online casino operators. It is a great new gaming experience that, due to the success of its predecessor land-based version played in gambling halls around the world, we can safely say that this roulette game will excite online casino users.”

“To ensure that Magic Red meets customer requirements and expectations, the machine has been tried and tested by various operators and players. This has helped the development team to deliver a product with the MGA Games seal of quality” says Lanfranchi.

According to Josep Barbal, CEO of SMI2000: “It is a magnificent opportunity to enter into the world of online casinos hand-in-hand with MGA Games and extend the framework of collaborations that we have already had with the MGA Group for many years. We are sure that in the same way that MGA Industrial made Magic, Luxury, and Compact roulette games the benchmark for the land-based gaming market, we will now endeavour to do the same for online casinos.”

“Whatsmore, we are already working on new projects to accompany this product very soon. We will be making it possible for users to interact even more with the games, customising them to their liking, and acquiring exclusive products that will distinguish our games like never before seen in online casinos,” says Barbal.

The digital version of Magic Red Roulette is true to the physical game-based panel design found on machines in gaming venues. The button panel design mimics perfectly that of the roulette wheel, offering a casino quality standard, a well-thought-out user interface, and superior screen design, with the player’s comfort always in mind.

The game also stands out for its ease of use and virtual and intuitive information. The user can quickly access statistical data of the games, see their winnings and even customise the background of the roulette table. Its optimised agility and responsive design also allow quick 20-30 second games on a mobile, anytime, anywhere.

The long-awaited Magic Red Roulette game is now available for online casino operators throughout Spain on the MGA Games platform.

Aviator Studio has secured a further legal victory in Brazil after São Paulo courts rejected additional injunction requests filed by SPRIBE in proceedings involving Aviator Studio directly.

Importantly, the latest rulings concern the direct legal dispute between Aviator Studio and SPRIBE itself, separate from the previously reported proceedings involving Foggo Entertainment and Betnacional.

Having already confirmed consecutive victories in Brazil connected to Foggo Entertainment, Aviator Studio has now confirmed that courts in São Paulo also ruled in its favour across both judicial instances of the proceedings.

In each case, the courts refused to grant the urgent measures sought by SPRIBE. As a result, Aviator Studio and its partners can continue operating while the broader AVIATOR trademark dispute progresses through the evidentiary phase.

The decisions add to a growing series of courtroom setbacks for SPRIBE in Brazil and further strengthen Aviator Studio’s legal position in the connected proceedings tied to the AVIATOR dispute as related proceedings continue across multiple jurisdictions.

Commenting on the development, representatives from Aviator Studio said: “These outcomes continue to confirm a clear judicial pattern. Attempts to obtain urgent injunctions against Aviator Studio and its partners in Brazil are consistently being rejected by the courts.”

HIPTHER has officially revealed the Agenda for HIPTHER Baltics & Nordics: Tallinn 2026, taking place on 2 June at Hilton Tallinn Park, bringing together regulators, operators, fintech builders, founders, compliance leaders, legal experts, AI practitioners, and startup innovators for the grand finale of the HIPTHER Baltics 2026 series.

Tallinn is not just another conference destination for HIPTHER — it is home base. The city where the #hipthers story evolves, and the natural setting for a conference built around digital governance, startup ecosystems, operational resilience, and the future of regulated innovation.

The newly released program features:

16 sessions across one focused day
2 parallel stages
3 practical HIPTHER Academy workshops
40+ speakers & experts from across the Baltics, Nordics, and wider European ecosystem

One Agenda. Multiple Industries. Real Operational Conversations.

Tallinn 2026 brings together discussions that typically happen in separate rooms: AML supervision, fintech scaling, AI implementation, digital identity infrastructure, crypto payments, operational risk, behavioural science, startup growth, and commercial strategy.

Across the Compliance & Operations Lab and the TechXperience Stage, attendees will explore topics including:

AML supervision, financial intelligence & market trust
Operator-supplier partnerships under mature regulation
Digital identity infrastructure & eIDAS 2.0
AI-powered operations & compliance automation
Player acquisition after the easy-growth era
Stablecoins, Travel Rule & trusted payment infrastructure
Governance, board accountability & operational risk
VC, alternative finance & cross-border startup scaling
Agentic AI and production-ready AI workflows for regulated sectors

The agenda also includes a focused Finland regulatory update alongside keynote sessions examining CRM strategy under tightening Nordic regulation, behavioural science in regulated environments, and the realities of operational AI adoption beyond the hype cycle.

HIPTHER Academy Expands the Practical Layer

Tallinn 2026 continues the expansion of HIPTHER Academy with practical workshops designed for professionals operating inside fast-changing regulated industries.

This year’s Tallinn workshops focus on:

Digital body language & executive communication
Production-ready AI agents for regulated industries
Agentic AI workflows and orchestration systems

More Than a Conference Floor

HIPTHER Baltics & Nordics: Tallinn 2026 also brings back the curated social experiences that have become part of the HIPTHER DNA.

A Baltic-Nordic Industry Room Built for Decision-Makers

HIPTHER Baltics & Nordics: Tallinn 2026 closes the 2026 Baltic series by bringing together the people shaping regulated growth across gaming, fintech, AI, compliance, payments, cybersecurity, and startup innovation — all inside one highly focused, boutique environment built for real conversations instead of expo chaos.

Zoltán Tűndik, Co-Founder & Head of Business at HIPTHER, commented: “Tallinn has always represented something unique for us. Not only because HIPTHER OÜ proudly calls Estonia home, but because the Baltic-Nordic region continues to prove that practical innovation, digital governance, and entrepreneurial resilience can coexist without unnecessary complexity.

With Tallinn 2026, we wanted to build more than another conference agenda. We wanted to create a room where operators, regulators, founders, compliance leaders, fintech innovators, and AI practitioners can have honest operational conversations about what comes next.

The future of regulated industries will not be shaped in isolated verticals. It will be shaped through collaboration between technology, compliance, governance, finance, and human decision-making. That is exactly why Tallinn felt like the natural grand finale for our Baltic series.

And frankly, there is no better city in Europe to host these conversations than Tallinn.”

As HIPTHER returns home to Tallinn, the final stop of the series promises a high-level gathering designed around substance, operational insight, and the future of the Baltic-Nordic innovation economy.
