First Look Games adds Reflex Gaming to its platform
Studio ramps up game promotion via award-winning platform that directly connects developers and affiliates
Reflex Gaming has become the latest developer to get serious about game promotion after joining First Look Games, the powerful and sophisticated platform that directly connects studios and affiliates.
As a fully paid-up member of First Look Games, Reflex Gaming gains access to a brandable library where it can upload information and assets for each of its titles which can then be accessed by a network of approved affiliates.
Reflex Gaming can even offer demo links for each of its games, with player verification that is carried out seamlessly by 1account. This means that affiliates in highly regulated markets such as the UK can still offer demo games to their audiences.
Reflex Gaming has complete control over the assets it shares via its library, and when those assets are made available to affiliates. It can even offer a “first look” to certain affiliates up to two weeks before a new game launches.
This allows affiliates to create content ahead of time, building hype around the title before it hits the market. This is something Reflex Gaming will do with its latest game, 8 Balls of Fire.
8 Balls of Fire takes players to the South Pacific and to the tiny island of Pyro Tiki where they can discover a closely held secret – a volcano that can deliver massive wins. The game is set across six reels and three rows with 20 paylines active and comes packed with features such as Free Spins, Fire Ball Link (a hold and spin bonus), Multipliers, a Pot Pick bonus and more.
Elliott Resnick of First Look Games, said: “We are delighted to add Reflex Gaming to our growing lineup of renowned studios looking to leverage the power of affiliates and promote their titles to the widest possible player audience.
“The First Look Games platform has been designed to allow them to do this with ease while ensuring assets are stored securely.
“Given the high level of competition among studios and the sheer number of titles players have to choose from, engaging with the player community via affiliates is proven to boost awareness of a studio and ultimately participation with its games.”
Mat Ingram, CPO at Reflex Gaming added: “We have an exciting game launch schedule, and the First Look Games collaboration will help us to expand our affiliate offering globally.
“As an omni-channel game studio with a presence in both the online and retail markets, our games are accessible to a wide audience. This cross-platform availability ensures that players become increasingly acquainted with our titles. This partnership will enable us to maximise our reach to a wider player audience.”
124 countries and territories registered for selection; the 32nd “Solidarity” Wildcard slot is still to be confirmed.
PUBG MOBILE has confirmed 31 of the 32 national teams for PUBG MOBILE at the Esports Nations Cup 2026, scheduled for November 3-8 in Riyadh. The publisher said 124 countries and territories registered and submitted official rosters for the selection process. The event will play for a $1.32 million USD prize pool.
The confirmed lineup includes 14 teams advancing from nine regional qualifiers: Indonesia, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Jordan, KSA, France, Italy, Mexico, Colombia, Chile, Mauritania and Madagascar.
A further 12 teams are invited via ENC Rankings: Türkiye, Mongolia, Brazil, Pakistan, Myanmar, Vietnam, Thailand, Nepal, South Africa, United States, Ukraine and Argentina. Four Special Invite teams—China, South Korea, India and Japan—also join the Group Stage.
Two Wildcard slots are listed: Kuwait as the Host Region representative, and one “TBD (Solidarity)” team still to be confirmed. From November 3, teams will be split into four groups of eight for a round-robin Group Stage, with the top four from each group advancing to the Grand Finals.
The Esports Nations Cup was announced in August 2025 as a multi-title national-team competition, with future international iterations planned, according to the company. PUBG MOBILE also claimed it is the “#1 game title at the Esports Nations Cup in terms of participating countries and territories,” citing the 124 registered countries and territories for its selection process.

Tonybet says a player in Laurier-Station, Canada has claimed the “golden card” prize worth $20,000 CAD in the operator’s World Cup Card Collection. The announcement was made Tuesday 21st July 2026.
The World Cup collection featured 51 cards in total, including 48 digital cards representing participating World Cup nations, plus three unique prize cards in bronze, silver and gold. Tonybet said the bronze card—available during the group stage—was previously found by a customer in Saint-Colomban, Canada, while the silver card—available during the knockout rounds up to the quarter-finals—was won by a player in County Kildare, Ireland.
The golden card became available for the semi-final, third-place play-off and final, and has now been claimed, Tonybet said.
Tonybet Head of Product Kiryl Liudvikevich said: “You can plan a campaign down to the last detail, but you can’t plan what the World Cup brings.
“We designed the collection to evolve with the tournament, and every knockout round created new stories we couldn’t have predicted. Seeing players complete their collections and discovering who would uncover each prize was the most rewarding part of the campaign.
“I hope everyone enjoyed the experience for what it was meant to be: a fun addition to the tournament, played responsibly and always within their limits.”
Tonybet said the collection will remain open until 31 July for players who are still completing sets and spending coins, although all grand prizes have been awarded.
