Continent 8 Technologies, an award-winning managed hosting, connectivity, and cybersecurity solutions provider has bolstered its presence in the US market going live in the state of Vermont.

Through its data center located in the Burlington region, the infrastructure provider is supporting the nation’s largest online sports betting platforms including DraftKings, FanDuel and Fanatics.

With online sports betting legalized in Vermont on 16 June 2023, it is expected to generate nearly $7m in proceeds for the state in its first full year of legal sports betting, according to government officials. In December 2023, the Vermont Department of Liquor and Lottery announced the go-live date of 11 January, as well as the three operators that have been awarded licenses.

As a strategic technology solutions provider of choice, Continent 8 has consistently driven an ambitious first-to-market approach, allowing its customers to be ready to launch from day one of a state opening. The new site augments Continent 8’s market-leading offering in the US, where it is now live in 30 states.

Michael Tobin, Founder and CEO of Continent 8 Technologies, said: “We are proud to be able to support our customers in their strategic launch in one of the year’s most anticipated newly regulated online sports betting states. We have been relentless in our pursuit as a market leader and putting customers first.

“Our bold, first-to-market approach, done so over 25 years, is one of the many reasons our global customers continue to trust us with their mission critical technology and have developed such close strategic partnerships for decades. We are extremely excited to be planting a flag in the state of Vermont, not only for the future of the business, but one where I have a strong personal history.”

Gaming Corps, a publicly traded game development firm located in Sweden, has secured a major new UK launch after going live with Rank Interactive across 12 online brands managed by Rank Group Plc.

The contract provides Gaming Corps with entry to one of the UK’s most prominent and well-known gaming and entertainment organizations, with the studio’s content debuting in Rank’s diverse brand portfolio, featuring familiar names like Grosvenor Casinos, Mecca Bingo, and Mecca Games.

Covering both physical and online platforms, Rank Group is a prominent name in British entertainment, with a legacy that goes back to 1937. Currently, the company caters to 3.1 million active clients, runs 109 casinos and bingo halls, and oversees over 80 online brands.

Currently, Rank Interactive players can access new Gaming Corps titles such as Wild Woof Returns, featuring Sheriff Woof Garret on a mission to catch the outlaw Feline Four, and Whole Lotta Honey, a high-volatility scatter-pay slot centered on an exciting Beehive feature. The launch also provides Rank with access to the broader identity of the Gaming Corps portfolio, defined by unique mechanics like Smash4Cash™, A-Maze-Cades™, and X-My-Way™, which have enabled the studio to establish a more identifiable product style.

Graham Greensmith, Chief Commercial Officer at Gaming Corps, said: “The collaboration with Rank Interactive is a very exciting step for Gaming Corps because these are brands with real history, real scale and a very broad player base. It gives us the opportunity to place our content in front of audiences that engage with online gaming in very different ways, whether that is through casino, bingo or slots-led brands. For us, that is what makes this partnership so compelling. It is not just about reach; it is about relevance across a portfolio that plays an important role in the UK gaming market.”

Nolan Frendo, Head of Content at Rank Interactive, said: “When content is being introduced across a multi-brand estate like ours, it needs to have broad appeal while still bringing something fresh into the mix. Gaming Corps gives us that balance. Their games bring strong visual themes, real personality and plenty of energy, and we see this launch as an exciting addition across a number of our key brands.”

Fast-growing content producer announces its involvement in a long-awaited sequel.

Renowned iGaming content developer BGaming aims to capture significant victories once more in Fishing Club 2, the follow-up to one of the firm’s most profitable #Casual games.

Participants settle in around a picturesque lake before dropping their lines into the water to discover what prizes they might reel in. The game offers a first-person perspective, engaging players directly in the action while conveying the soothing ambiance of an actual fishing experience.

BGaming has considered players’ opinions on the original game and provided them with greater freedom in their gameplay of Fishing Club 2. Players can fish at three spots located at dawn, dusk, and twilight. This provides each session with a unique twist and enables players to discover the atmosphere that suits their preferences.

The new Fishing Club game offers two bonus features. The Fishing Net bonus, capable of being activated for ×60 the player’s wager, spreads widely, while the TNT Bonus, valued at ×100 the wager, creates a massive blast in the water. You can acquire both of these by using the Buy Bonus button, ensuring a victory.

A skilled angler retains trophies, and the game enables players to track theirs with the well-known features Best Win and Best Catch. These show the greatest single-spin win amount and the largest multipliers achieved.

Vasili Pauliuchenko, Game Producer at BGaming, said, “The original Fishing Club title is one of players’ most-loved #Casual games by BGaming. Having listened to their feedback, we are taking them back to the open waters in Fishing Club 2 with a few pivotal updates.

We love to give our players more control over how they play, and that is on full display with Fishing Club 2. They can decide when and where they fish and what tools to use for most successful angling. We are sure that such personalization will be a hit with the game’s fans and those new to the series.”
