Pioneering platform software provider prepares to enter a new era of business with full visual rebrand that will redefine its identity and reinforce its value proposition

While 30 years is a milestone that very few iGaming companies get to achieve, Microgaming is proudly stepping into its fourth decade of operation with the announcement of a full visual rebrand for both its main corporate and Play It Forward websites.

The decision to update the visual language of the brand marks the beginning of what should be a transformative journey for Microgaming, with the company looking to return to its roots as a leading platform software provider – a position it has held since the business’s inception in 1994.

Though the Microgaming name and logo will remain untouched as a symbol of the company’s legacy and the 30 years of evolution it has embraced, the visual overhaul will inject new life into the brand through a contemporary look, vibrant design elements and a major focus on its people.

In doing so, Microgaming will recalibrate its value proposition from being a content aggregator to embracing its history as an established corporate platform software and technology provider – a change of direction that was set in motion by Games Global’s purchase of several of the company’s key assets including its distribution business and online games portfolio back in 2022.

With one of the key messages being that Microgaming’s pioneering platform software and technology facilitates the delivery of over 210 million bets per day and has empowered the world’s biggest online gaming brands to deliver games and sports betting seamlessly and responsibly, the new proposition will reflect not just where the brand has been, but where it’s heading in future.

Given the company has earned over 20 industry awards while championing diversity and inclusion in the workplace, it’s perhaps no surprise the shift in direction wasn’t only the product of boardroom decisions, but that staff also played a pivotal role in constructing the new narrative.

With this being a fitting reflection of the people-first approach Microgaming wants to encapsulate in its visual rebrand, the company has also revealed it will acknowledge the individuals and partners who have helped it become the iGaming giant it is today with a major celebration in June.

Alex Wilson, Head of Marketing at Microgaming, said: “We’re incredibly excited to be able to announce the rebranding of the corporate and Play It Forward websites at Microgaming in a move that will not only breath fresh visual life into our brand, but also redefine who we are as a business.

“Having been in the industry for 30 years, the repositioning of our value proposition will see Microgaming get back to its roots as an established corporate platform software and technology provider while simultaneously celebrating the people who’ve helped get us to where we are today. As such, it marks the start of what promises to be a transformative journey for the company as we enter a new chapter in our development and we can’t wait to share it with our iGaming peers.”

SoftConstruct unveils RecSys AI game recommendation system at AIBC Eurasia

In an iGaming Real Talk interview in Dubai, the firm says the tool reads player emotion and context to guide operator actions.

SoftConstruct AI has unveiled RecSys, an AI Game Recommendation System, during an exclusive iGaming Real Talk interview recorded at AIBC Eurasia in Dubai on Thursday 30th April.

Mushegh Khachatryan, Chief AI Officer at SoftConstruct AI, said RecSys is designed to move beyond traditional recommendation models by interpreting player emotions in real time and accounting for context, with the goal of suggesting “the next best action” for operators. “You can understand your customer’s emotions in real time and suggest the next best action. We are building intelligent systems which can reason and act.”

Khachatryan said SoftConstruct built an AI Center of Excellence by hiring talent from outside the iGaming sector, and described RecSys as part of “production-ready agentic AI” intended to support personalised campaigns and decision automation. Surya Palli, host of iGaming Real Talk, said: “SoftConstruct is essentially building a Netflix-style personalised experience for the iGaming industry, where every player gets a lobby made just for them.”

Responsible gaming was also discussed, with the company claiming AI can detect risky behaviour faster and more consistently than human teams, and recommend timely breaks while balancing player protection with sustainable growth.

Khachatryan also stressed the need for explainable, controlled deployment. “AI should help teams perform five times better rather than replace them… Without proper boundaries, short-term momentum boosts with AI can actually hurt your company in the long term.” The company said operators can manage campaigns, personalisation and risk through chat interfaces, with at least 85% accuracy “from the first interactions,” and directed viewers to the full interview on the iGaming Real Talk YouTube channel.
