With more than 50,000 gaming devices installed, Inspired is a leading provider of iconic games across the industry. ICE visitors will be able to see Inspired’s strong suite of customized content and premium cabinets that are outperforming in key markets. This year, the Company is debuting its Vantage server-based ready cabinet, which is powered by an intelligent operating system that can deliver content to address the preferences of every player, whether they are looking for time-on-device or larger jackpots, and allows players to search, sort and swipe for games in record time and with supreme quality.
The Valor® multi-game video lottery terminal (“VLT”) continues to impress in the North American market, with its latest placement of 820 units into Saskatchewan for Western Canada Lottery Corporation. ICE patrons can play some of the titles that are giving Valor such strong comparative performance, including the fiery Burn7sBurn™ wide area progressive (WAP), the ham-some Big Piggy Bonus™ WAP and the Egyptian-themed Scarab Gold™.
Omni-Channel Game Themes
Inspired has a proven track record of creating feature-rich games that deliver exciting experiences for regulated gaming, betting, lottery, social and leisure operators across land-based and mobile channels worldwide.

The strongest performing slot themes, including Gold Cash® and the player-popular Cops ‘n’ Robbers® family of games, will be on display on multiple gaming platforms, including our new Community three-player version. The newest game offerings feature an exciting key mechanic, Fortune Spins, that can be switched on and chosen as an alternative to spinning the normal base-game reels.
Other cross-platform favorites will also be on display. Big Fishing Fortune™, which was nominated for Eilers & Krejcik Gaming, LLC Top Performing NEW Online Slot, can be played on a gaming cabinet, online or on a mobile device. Space Invaders®, bringing a bit of 1980’s gaming nostalgia is available for Gaming and iGaming customers as well as pub, holiday park and motorway service customers in the UK.

Adding to Inspired’s powerful brands, ICE is a great opportunity to see Inspired’s three “big” must-have, must-play, innovative Free Spin bonus mechanics: Big Bonus, Big Spin Bonus and Big Fortune. These bonus mechanics are now offered in many of Inspired’s retail and iGaming games with the aim to keep players spinning and collecting wins. Big Spin Bonus was nominated for an Eilers & Krejcik Gaming, LLC Slot Award in the Top Performing Online Slot category and Most Innovative Online Game.
Inspired will also be debuting its new leaderboard functionality at this year’s ICE. This leaderboard functionality gives operators and venues a tool to draw in players and provides an additional incentive to play. Route venues can use leaderboards to introduce a competitive and promotional element to game play, adding a new play dimension that evokes the familiarity and nostalgia of traditional ranking tables – think Space Invaders high score board. The leaderboard’s easy-to-use interface empowers venues to set up and host customized tournaments with minimal effort.
Ground-Breaking Virtual Sports
ICE is the place to see Inspired’s award-winning Virtual Sports, featuring officially licensed products from all-time great MLBPAA and NFLA players.

Northern Lights Gaming, the award-winning studio known for blockbuster slot titles such as Unusual Suspects and Bison Moon, has promoted Chris Loftus to CEO.
The promotion comes after Andrew Goodale chose to step away from the studio after more than eight years at the helm to pursue other opportunities.
Chris is a seasoned online slot studio executive with more than 17 years of industry experience and joined Northern Lights Gaming back in April 2025 as Commercial Director.
His career began at Inspired Entertainment, where he spent a decade as Head of Content Operations before moving on to 1X2 Network, where he served as Commercial Director for the leading studio and aggregation platform.
This was followed by a stint as Sales Director at fast-growing game studio Playnetic, where he further expanded his expertise in commercial strategy and business development, before joining the Northern Lights Gaming team.
As CEO of Northern Lights Gaming, Chris brings seasoned insight and an energetic approach to the studio, which has both a strong legacy and ambitious plans for the future.
Robert Henrysson, Chairman at Northern Lights Gaming, said: “We are thrilled to promote Chris to the position of CEO and for him to lead Northern Lights Gaming into the next chapter of its success story.
“Of course, we’d like to thank Andrew for his many years of service and for helping to drive Northern Lights Gaming forward with passion and purpose and wish him well for the future.

“And with Chris leading our incredible team and with a strong product roadmap in front of us, we are highly confident of doing just that.”
Chris Loftus, CEO of Northern Lights Gaming, added: “It’s an honour to have been promoted to CEO of Northern Lights Gaming and to have the trust of the team to steer the ship and continue to build on the incredible progress we have already made.
“The key to success for any studio is to create great games that hit the mark with players, and we have the team and process in place to keep adding epic titles to our portfolio.
“Our product roadmap is packed with truly exceptional games, and we can’t wait to see them leave our production line and for players to fire up the reels.”
