Network Gaming, a betting technology company innovating the next generation of sports prediction games around small-stakes-big-win betting products, has secured four new key partners ahead of the World Cup. Featuring new product launches across multiple sports, spearheaded by its headline World Cup Tournament Survivor game, Network Gaming’s new partners are:

Planet Sport, media and B2B technology specialists who publish Football365, TEAMtalk, PlanetF1 and others as well as delivering a range of B2B products, content and services
WhoScored.com, the football data analysis website
At The Races, the horse racing media rights company which operates the Sky Sports Racing TV channel
101 Great Goals, the football live streaming and betting tips website, part of XL Media

Mike Grenham, Managing Director of Betting at Planet Sport, said: “We’re delighted to be partnering with Network Gaming, they have been a pleasure to deal with and the whole integration process has been seamless. We can’t wait to see how our audience of 15m users enjoy these great games.”

Matthew Taylor, Director of New Media and Innovation of At The Races, said: “Whilst ATR is first and foremost a digital platform for horse race fans, we fully understand that their interest in sport isn’t confined to equine excellence. The World Cup transcends traditional boundaries and we have historically devoted significant editorial coverage for tournaments but this year we also wanted an extra layer of engagement.

“We have partnered with Network Gaming, the brand leader in terms of pay-to-play predictive sports games, to deliver a series of World Cup games that will engage sports fans throughout the tournament and offer a small-stakes-big-prize-pool opportunity – winners will require a combination of strategy, skill and of course luck.

“The timescales were tight but both ATR and Network Gaming worked as a well-oiled team to deliver the game. We look forward to working with Network Gaming on future projects where the appeal of the event rises above typical borders of engagement.”

Thomas Rooney, Director of EU Sport at XL Media, said: “This year’s World Cup is played offline, but experienced online and we are delighted to serve up the 101greatgoals .com audience with this fun, engaging and hugely popular game, thanks to Network Gaming. The guys have been superb from our initial conversation through to going live. They do all the work behind the scenes, we send traffic to the game – it’s hopefully just the start of a long and successful partnership.”

Network Gaming made its name with the success of its first pay-to-play game, the Fantasy Masters golf, and recently attracted cornerstone strategic investment from a host of industry heavyweights, including Betfair co-founder Andrew Black.

The company’s star-studded product team are creating small-stakes-big-win products that deliver real value-for-money enjoyment. Recreational customers are not simply assembled in a pool of players where only a handful of sharks dominate the winning positions in the leaderboard. Similarly, innovative mechanics within the products keep players in contention for as long as possible, thereby deepening fan engagement and interaction, boosting repeat visits and digital dwell-time.

Network Gaming’s ongoing partnerships are comprised of top-tier operator Fitzdares, talkSPORT, whose popular sports news and analysis shows drive audience engagement across a number of live-broadcast platforms, and The Sun’s fantasy football offering of Dream Team.

Network Gaming is looking ahead to an exciting 2023, with notable expansion into the U.S., where a growing product suite (comprising NFL, NBA, MLB and horse racing) will see it broaden and deepen its reach. The North American market remains a greenfield opportunity because Network Gaming games work particularly well for U.S. sports. They can function in either fixed-odds or DFS-style-license formats, opening up a prolific pipeline of free-to-play or pay-to-play games with great repeat-play metrics to media companies or affiliates. Equally, any sportsbook can benefit from integrating a versatile vertical that is neither DFS nor fixed-odds betting to help them differentiate their product in a progressively homogenised market.

To find out more, entries are now open for the World Cup Tournament Survivor game, which follows a similar format to Network Gaming’s classic Survivor format which has proved so popular in its initial offering around the English Premier League. It’s a value-for-money bet during the cost of living crisis, whereby one £10 entry fee buys customers two lives and possibly a whole tournament of entertainment.

Thousands of players are already taking part, with the final prize pool likely to be over £25,000.

Harry Collins, CEO at Network Gaming, said: “We are delighted to support our new partners in engaging their audiences and growing wallet share with our exciting and truly differentiated product portfolio. Network Gaming products are easy to integrate and increase time on site. As a team, we’re also energised to continue to unveil more new products across a wide range of sports to all our prestigious partners in the coming year.”

BGaming, a popular iGaming content provider, has unveiled its latest #Entertainment slot, Piggy Bank Hold & Win, inviting players to join a lively cast of colourful piggies in a playful new release.

The game puts a fresh spin on the well-known Hold and Win mechanic, unfolding across a compact 3×3 grid enhanced by vibrant, casual-style visuals and upbeat audio.

Players aim to activate the Hold and Win bonus by landing three symbols on the middle horizontal reel. Above the reels sit three piggy characters—Green, Pink, and Blue—each capable of triggering unique features during the bonus round. As the game progresses, the piggies collect coins that land on the grid, steadily building anticipation with every spin.

Each piggy introduces a distinct mechanic: the Green Piggy can reset remaining spins back to three, the Pink Piggy applies multipliers of up to x8 to total winnings, and the Blue Piggy expands the grid to 3×5, unlocking greater win potential.

Additional features include Mystery and Collect symbols, alongside five available jackpots, with the top Royal Jackpot offering a payout of up to 2,000x the bet.

A playful detail sees a pig snout appear at the side of the grid, giving players access to Buy Bonus options. This allows instant entry into a randomised bonus round or enhanced versions with extra features.

Alex Baliukonis, Game Producer at BGaming, said, “The Hold and Win gameplay mechanic is one of the most consistently popular with players right now, and with Piggy Bank Hold and Win, we have added plenty of personality to the format.

The game’s playful design perfectly matches the fast-paced features, showing that you can add something fresh to a well-known formula without overcomplicating it, and we look forward to seeing how players engage with Piggy Bank Hold & Win.”

Evoplay, the award-winning game developer, is marking the Easter season with the release of two vibrant new titles — Uncrossable Rush Eggster and 3 Bunny Pots Bonanza — combining high-energy gameplay with feature-rich mechanics.

Leading the seasonal rollout is Uncrossable Rush Eggster, the newest entry in the studio’s popular crash-style series. Players once again follow Eggwina the hen as she navigates a hectic 24-lane highway, choosing after each successful move whether to cash out or continue for bigger multipliers.

The game offers four difficulty levels, from Easy to Hardcore, alongside fully customisable autoplay settings. With unpredictable traffic patterns shaping every round, the experience delivers a dynamic risk-reward balance where no two sessions feel the same. Fast-paced gameplay and rising multipliers make it particularly appealing for players seeking quick, high-intensity sessions with a seasonal twist.

Joining the release is 3 Bunny Pots Bonanza, a slot set inside a treasure-filled bunny vault, where players spin for vibrant coins, glittering gems, and golden rewards.

At its core are Bonus Coin symbols that unlock a feature packed with multipliers, extra spins, and expanding reels through three distinct boosters. With multiple gameplay combinations and the potential to trigger the Grand Jackpot, the title offers a highly engaging experience with strong replay value and multiple paths to big wins.

Together, the two launches highlight Evoplay’s ability to blend seasonal themes with varied gameplay formats, catering to a wide spectrum of player preferences during one of the year’s most active content periods.

Ivan Kravchuk, CEO at Evoplay, said: “Easter is a great opportunity for us to explore more playful themes across different game formats.

“With Uncrossable Rush Eggster, we’ve added a seasonal twist to one of our most recognisable series, while 3 Bunny Pots Bonanza delivers a feature-rich slot packed with colour and rewarding mechanics. Together, they offer players two distinct but equally engaging ways to celebrate the season.”

Exciting Loco Free Spins, engaging Toro Bonus, and the exhilarating VIP Express jackpot conclusion.

Kendoo, the rapidly expanding slot developer, has accelerated the launch of Locomotoro, an exciting 5×3 slot where thunderous engines and a fierce Toro drive each spin on a progression-focused adventure.

Designed to cater to every player, from casual to high-stakes, Locomotoro embodies Kendoo’s player-centric philosophy in game development. Centered on dynamic visuals, the game employs gratifying mechanics and a captivating rhythm that heightens excitement before presenting substantial wins in the VIP Express.

Central to the experience is the Toro Bonus, a Hold and Win feature that enlarges the grid from 5×3 to 5×6 when players reveal extra rows with Green Light symbols. Every Green Light unlocks a secured row and turns into a Bonus or Collect symbol, instantly enhancing the board’s worth.

When Bonus, Bonus Jackpot, and Collect symbols appear, respins are reset, and Collect symbols accumulate all active values and remain fixed, progressively leading to substantial payouts.

After all rows are freed, the following Green Light opens the Golden Gate, subsequently triggering the VIP Express at the conclusion of the feature.

In the VIP Express feature, a golden train comes in with cars loaded with rewards determined by the overall bet amount. Prizes consist of the Mini, Minor, Major, and Grand jackpots, with the Grand providing 1000x.

All VIP Express rewards are incorporated straight into the Toro Bonus amount. Moreover, gathering 30 symbols of any kind during the Toro Bonus triggers a Full Board Multiplier, which doubles the total payout of the feature.

Loco Spins introduce additional diversity, activated by three Scatter symbols to grant five Free Spins, with chances for retriggering during the round.

For players looking to access premium gameplay instantly, the Buy Feature option allows entry into the Toro Bonus for 75x the bet or the enhanced VIP Toro Bonus for 150x, with higher chances at triggering the VIP Express

Locomotoro is now available for demo and real play across all Kendoo partner platforms.

Kate Romanenko, Commercial Director at Kendoo, said: “Locomotoro is built around momentum and structured payoff. Players can feel the progression as they unlock rows, open the Golden Gate and ultimately trigger the VIP Express.

“It delivers a strong bonus climax combined with clear win progression, which makes the overall experience both satisfying and highly engaging.”
