Rapidly-expanding software provider teams up with Scandinavian betting giant to distribute its state-of-the-art casino titles in Sweden, Malta, Germany, Latvia and more

Having already experienced phenomenal growth since the start of 2023, sought-after-software provider, Swintt, has announced it has put pen to paper on a major new deal with igaming heavyweights, Betsson Group, that will see its titles distributed in a number of key European markets.

Under the terms of the new partnership, both SwinttGames and SwinttPremium releases will now be hosted at Betsson Group-powered online casinos in Sweden, Malta, Germany and Latvia, as well as a number of titles created by boutique third-party software providers via the innovative SwinttStudios platform.

Though the scope of the deal will already enable Swintt to secure significant expansion across much of the continent, the two companies have also revealed that further launches will follow in Lithuania and Italy, making it one of the provider’s largest collaborations to date.

The news means that Betsson players in all of the aforementioned markets will soon be able to enjoy a host of state-of-the-art SwinttGames, including the studio’s most successful release to date, Aloha Spirit XtraLock^TM, the popular Book of Shai and the innovative upcoming release, Electric Elements.

Fans of classic online slots will also be well catered for courtesy of the brand’s Premium line-up, which is characterised by its straightforward gameplay mechanics and easy-to-trigger bonus features. While a number of these games will be rolled out in due course, Swintt fans will be particularly excited to try the forthcoming Duolitos Garden, which boasts an exciting respins game with four fixed jackpots.

The addition of SwinttStudios releases at Betsson platforms, meanwhile, will enable a number of partner studios to showcase their software to a wide new audience. These include the Gacha game-inspired Treasure Capsule: Thor’s Strike from Samurai Studio and recently-released Stacking Bison by Fine Edge Gaming, both of which have become flagship titles for the ambitious collaborative venture.

With all this and more to come at Betsson casinos over the coming months, both parties have high hopes for a hugely successful partnership over the coming months, with Swintt being able to further expand its presence in the global regulated markets while Betsson cements its position as a true market leader.

David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “Over the past few months, Swintt has been involved in a number of partnerships with high-profile online casinos, but our new agreement with Betsson might be one of the biggest ones as we continue to expand brand throughout Europe and beyond.
“By working closely with Betsson, we’ll be able to ensure customers in a number of important markets get to experience the huge variety of titles that we have available from our SwinttGames and SwinttPremium line-ups, as well as exciting third-party games courtesy of the SwinttStudios platform.”

Sarah Micallef, Head of Gaming Operations at Betsson Group, said: “From its fairly humble beginnings some 60 years ago, Betsson has established itself as one of the premier online gaming operators in Scandinavia and most of Europe – and a key component of this has been ensuring we partner with only the very best software providers.
“Over the past few years, Swintt has proved through its innovative range of releases that its certainly worthy of being considered up there with the industry’s top studios and we’re very much looking forward to making their games available to our customers in a wide number of markets this year.”

La Ciudad autónoma acudirá de nuevo a Madrid para reforzar su compromiso con la Industria

La próxima edición de Interazar volverá a ser el gran punto de encuentro de la Industria del Juego española y contará, una vez más, con la participación activa del Gobierno de Ceuta, que reafirma así su compromiso firme y continuado con un Sector del todo determinante para su modelo económico.

Ceuta vuelve a la Feria Española del Juego los próximos días 28 y 29 de abril en IFEMA con un mensaje claro: la Ciudad se ha convertido en uno de los grandes polos de atracción para la Industria del Juego y la tecnología, ya no sólo en España, sino en Europa. La presencia institucional ceutí servirá para continuar mostrando las ventajas fiscales únicas de la Ciudad, su seguridad jurídica y un ecosistema cada vez más maduro, que ya alberga a buena parte de las principales compañías del Juego online que operan en España.

La apuesta del Gobierno de Ceuta por el Sector no es coyuntural. Los datos avalan un modelo que ha generado empleo cualificado, incrementando de forma notable la recaudación pública y situando a la Ciudad como un hub tecnológico de referencia. Interazar se presenta así, como el foro natural para reforzar la relación con las empresas ya implantadas y para abrir nuevas vías de colaboración con Operadores y proveedores que buscan un entorno competitivo y estable desde el que crecer.

La combinación entre un certamen con identidad propia como Interazar, y una Administración que ha sabido entender el potencial del Sector, convierte esta participación en una muestra más de una estrategia coherente y sostenida en el tiempo.

Sixteen Tons Entertainment, the studio behind the award-winning EMERGENCY series, today announced the appointment of Sebastian Nußbaum as Chief Creative Officer. A lifelong fan of the franchise and an accomplished creative leader in the European games industry, Nußbaum joins CEO Jan Richter’s leadership team to guide the next phase of EMERGENCY’s growth.

Nußbaum’s connection to EMERGENCY spans back to the franchise’s earliest titles, drawn to its unique blend of authentic simulation and strategic gameplay. This personal passion, combined with Sixteen Tons’ recent performance, made joining the studio an easy decision.

Over 200% Revenue Growth for EMERGENCY HQ
Since Jan Richter became CEO in mid-2024, EMERGENCY HQ has achieved remarkable growth, with monthly revenue increasing by more than 200% in just 18 months — eight years after its original launch. The growth has been almost entirely organic, fueled by consistent content updates, live events, and expansion into international markets, particularly the United States. The studio now employs approximately 35 team members.

From Niche Franchise to Billion-Dollar Potential
At Wooga, Nußbaum served as Vice President Creative, leading the development of June’s Journey and Pearl’s Peril, turning them into globally successful titles with June’s Journey generating over $1 billion in lifetime revenue. He now brings this expertise to Sixteen Tons, aiming to scale EMERGENCY into its next era.

Leadership Comments
“The growth of EMERGENCY HQ over the past 18 months demonstrates the true potential of this brand — and we are still early,” said Jan Richter, CEO of Sixteen Tons. “Sebastian brings not only creative vision and passion, but also the operational expertise to elevate the franchise and redefine its genre. His decision to join our team validates our ambitions and motivates us to raise the bar even further.”

Nußbaum added:
“What Jan and the team have achieved with EMERGENCY HQ is truly impressive. The dynamic growth, clarity of strategy, and strength of the team made it clear that something special is happening at Sixteen Tons. I’m excited to contribute to the evolution of this brand and help realize its enormous potential.”

Sixteen Tons at GDC 2026
Sixteen Tons Entertainment will showcase its development at the Game Developers Conference (GDC) in San Francisco, March 9–13. CEO Jan Richter will present insights into the transformation of EMERGENCY HQ and its record revenue growth, while Sebastian Nußbaum will be available for interviews and media engagements.
