Yggdrasil and Reflex Gaming extend partnership to target UK retail with Yggdrasil game mechanics
Yggdrasil, the leading worldwide publisher of online gambling content, has signed an agreement with Reflex Gaming, an omni-channel supplier of games and machines, to introduce its high-performing Game Engagement Mechanics (GEMs) to the land-based sector for the first time.
The deal will see Reflex Gaming incorporate Yggdrasil’s GEMs to its retail games offering in the UK, available on terminals in betting shops, arcades, pubs and other recreational venues.
Reflex Gaming has been a YG Masters partner since 2020 and has released 11 online titles through the program, with a number of them featuring Yggdrasil’s proprietary GEMs, including the popular Dublin Up DoubleMax and Desperate Dawgs 2 Gigablox.
Yggdrasil’s successful GEMs portfolio now consists of Gigablox, MultiMax, GigaRise, Splitz, FastPot5 and DoubleMax, as well as recently introduced WildFight and DuoMax.
The partnership extension will see the two companies enhance capabilities as Yggdrasil’s GEMs make their land-based debut and Reflex Gaming can offer its retail customers engaging and proven mechanics from the online channel.
Founded in 2004, Reflex Gaming is highly regarded in the industry as the largest independent machine supplier in the UK with a comprehensive portfolio of in-house IP. This includes some of the most popular digital land-based games content in the UK and the Netherlands with more than 4,500 digital machines connected to its Slingshot platform.
Stuart McCarthy, Head of Product & Programs at Yggdrasil, said: “Strengthening our partnership with Reflex Gaming to bring our GEMs to the land-based space is a great milestone for us.
“We have already had great success together, releasing a number of high-performing online titles to players and we are thrilled to now take this to the retail sector. This deal is testament to the strength of our GEMs and the potential it has to take the player experience to a new level.”
Mat Ingram, CPO at Reflex Gaming, said: “We are extremely pleased with what we have achieved as a YG Masters partner in the last few years, and we have been very impressed with how the GEMs have performed on our online titles.
“Bringing the mechanics to UK players of our retail content is extremely exciting for us and we believe they offer great potential also in this space and look forward to further expanding our successful collaboration.”

Inside RedCore’s Communications Hub: The One-Integration Solution Powering Faster, Smarter Messaging
Reading Time: 2 minutes
European Gaming Media visited RedCore’s impressive multi-brand booth at SiGMA Central Europe in Rome to take a closer look at one of their most technically impactful products: the Communications Hub. Designed as an all-in-one solution for digital businesses, the Communications Hub aggregates multiple verified communication providers – from SMS and calls to high-volume messaging services – into a single platform with one integration and one admin panel.
To explore the technology behind the product, we sat down with Bohdan Bulatsan, CTO of the Communications Hub and a seasoned software engineer with over a decade of experience.
At iGaming, speed and reliability are everything. How does Communications Hub keep messages flowing flawlessly even under pressure?
We have developed a new engine designed specifically to keep our customers’ messages moving smoothly, even during high-pressure periods. One of the key features is our block-geo mechanism, which allows account managers to block certain message types or specific regions when needed.
Combined with our backup system and intelligent routing, this ensures that messages continue to reach their destination reliably, no matter the load or external pressure.
You’ve made adding new providers incredibly fast. What’s the secret sauce behind this ‘integration magic’?
Our technical team is constantly improving the integration process because it’s a core priority for us. One of the main reasons we can move so fast is our universal SDK (Software Development Kit). It includes all the common features and connection points that most providers rely on, so when we start an integration, we can do it quickly and efficiently.
We also run strict pre-integration tests to catch any potential issues before going live. All of this makes the entire process smoother, more reliable, and much faster for our clients.
With so much analytics coming from every channel, how do you turn all that data into actionable insights for businesses?
That’s a good question. Our analytics model brings together all the data from every service and communication channel and aggregates it in one place. This makes it much easier for our customers to filter, understand, and work with the information quickly.
Because everything is centralized, businesses can see the full picture and make faster, more informed decisions that directly support their growth and profitability.
How is SiGMA going for the Communications Hub? What’s your feedback from the event and what are your plans for the future?
SiGMA has been a very good event for us. We’ve received a lot of positive feedback from visitors and participants, which is always great to see. Looking ahead, our focus is on expanding the product even further, adding new features and continuing to scale the Communications Hub to meet the needs of our clients.
