Michael Tadross, Christos Zoulianitis and Martyna Scieszka set to lead respective units for award-winning provider

 Playson, the fast-growing digital entertainment supplier, has revamped its corporate strategy with three internal promotions that align with the company’s ambitious business plans.

Michael Tadross, who has been with Playson for over six years, has been promoted to Director of Account Management. His new role will see him take even greater strategic leadership of the Account Management department and influence its further advancement.

Christos Zoulianitis has been promoted to Director of Market Strategy. His responsibilities now include developing and executing the company’s overall business strategy, introducing a new commercial approach that will secure market growth and brand exposure to all key focus markets.

Having started as an Account Manager in 2018, this is Zoulianitis’ third internal promotion at Playson, previously working under Head of Partnerships, showcasing his ability to communicate the organisation’s strategic vision and objectives by coordinating and evaluating strategic plans and initiatives.

Martyna Scieszka is now Head of Compliance following a strong performance since joining Playson just 14 months ago, providing the confidence for the studio she is ready to embrace additional responsibilities in a more senior role. Scieszka will spearhead Playson’s Compliance unit, fostering a culture of excellence as the company looks to extend its reach across regulated markets worldwide.

The latest promotions demonstrate the superior talent of Playson’s wider team and the company’s ongoing commitment to delivering career progression for its people, following the announcement of Vsevolod Lapin’s move to Deputy CEO last month.

Michael Tadross, Director of Account Management at Playson, said: “I am really excited to get started in my new role here at Playson.

“We have a unified team of experienced Account Managers and, as we continue to pursue our goal of expansion within regulated markets, I’m thrilled to further lead the team in facilitating Playson’s continued growth through striving to provide a first-class experience to our valued business partners.”

Christos Zoulianitis Director of Market Strategy at Playson, said: “For one of the long-serving members of the Playson team, I am delighted to be recognised with my promotion to Director of Market Strategy.

“Throughout my tenure we have experienced some good times and other more challenging ones, but with a clear vision in place coinciding with our ambitious growth plans, I am confident we can reach our goals.”

Martyna Scieszka, Head of Compliance at Playson, said: “Having worked in the iGaming industry for over a decade now, it’s great to now use my experience to enhance the compliance team at Playson.

“Our enhanced growth strategy is rapidly taking shape and I hope we can continue to secure some exciting licences.”

Alex Ivshin, CEO at Playson, said: “It brings us great pleasure make promotions from within the company. Michael, Christos and Martyna thoroughly deserve their new positions within Playson’s senior team.

“All three have demonstrated all the characteristics that we look for in our senior team as we continue to build and reach our goals. It’s great to know we have their experience and leadership.”

DEGEN Studios unleashes the Plague City chase

Published

on

degen-studios-unleashes-the-plague-city-chase

DEGEN Studios has launched Plague City, a Scatter Pays slot built around visible progression, escalating features and a 10,000x max win chase. Every winning combination spreads infection across the reels, creating bigger setups as players build towards Plague Wave Respins, Plague Breakout Free Spins and Super Free Spins.

During the base game, any position that forms part of a winning combination becomes infected, and as wins and cascades continue, the outbreak can spread across more of the reels.

A Med Kit should stop the outbreak. In Plague City, it starts the next stage. Landing a Med Kit while infected positions are active triggers Plague Wave Respins, where infected positions remain active, Wilds become sticky with multipliers, and Respins continue until every infected position has been healed or no further wins occur.

Every Sticky Wild begins with three lives. Each winning cascade reduces a Wild’s life by one, while every newly landed Wild increases the multiplier value of all active Wilds, allowing multiplier chains to continue growing throughout the feature.

The chase escalates further in Plague Breakout Free Spins. Triggered by four, five or six Scatters, every Free Spins feature begins with eight Free Spins. Scatter symbols are replaced by Vaccines, which award retriggers and upgrade the Starting Wild Multiplier, allowing future Wilds to land with increasingly higher multiplier values.

Land six Scatters and the outbreak reaches Super Free Spins, where every newly landed Wild increases the multiplier value of all active Wilds by +2x. From there, the max win chase becomes a race to collect Vaccines, extend the feature and continue landing new Wilds as multiplier chains grow towards 10,000x the bet.

For players looking to accelerate the chase, Buy Bonus and Activate options offer direct entry into Plague Breakout Free Spins, Mystery Buy, or boosted chances of triggering both Free Spins and Plague Wave Respins.

Danny Gordon, Head of Studio at DEGEN Studios, said: “At DEGEN, we’re obsessed with building gameplay that players can actually follow. In Plague City, every mechanic has a purpose. The infection spreads, Vaccines extend the feature, Wild multipliers continue growing and every step brings the max win chase closer.”

SlotsMAX and CrashMAX titles roll out via one-click access for Hub88’s operator partners, alongside tiered progressive jackpots.

Under the agreement, AccaMAX’s catalogue will be delivered through Hub88, including the provider’s SlotsMAX and CrashMAX collections. The companies said the integration will also include AccaMAX’s four-tier progressive jackpot network.

Hub88 said AccaMAX’s titles are tested for “fairness, performance and regulatory compliance across all major jurisdictions,” positioning the content for multi-market operator rollouts.

Ollie Castleman, Managing Director at Hub88, said: “AccaMAX has been making waves over the last year, since the launch of its SlotsMAX library in 2025. With a broad range of themes and a highly motivating jackpot system, the supplier is a welcome addition to our platform. We are excited to deliver their portfolio and see what other surprises await in their roadmap this year.”

Christo Bezuidenhout, CPO at AccaMAX, said: “Partnering with Hub88 means operators can enable our entire product offering in a single step, with none of the usual integration overhead. Every title we ship is crafted for entertainment value and tested for compliance across major markets, and this partnership puts that quality in front of operators worldwide. We’d encourage anyone already on the Hub88 network to switch us on and see the difference for their players.”

Gaming Corps expands Entain deal with Ontario live and Alberta launch planned

Supplier content is already live on BetMGM in Ontario, with Party Casino & Sports Interaction lined up ahead of Alberta’s July iGaming opening.

Gaming Corps has expanded its partnership with Entain, extending distribution of its casino content across more Entain brands and markets, with Canada positioned as a key near-term focus.

The supplier went live with Entain’s joint venture BetMGM in Ontario in December 2025, followed by a wider Entain rollout in the province in March 2026. Gaming Corps and Entain are also preparing for Alberta’s regulated iGaming market opening in July, with Gaming Corps content “ready to go live from day one with BetMGM” and Party Casino & Sports Interaction to follow.

Outside Canada, Gaming Corps said it completed a full content launch in Brazil with Sportingbet and Betboo in May, and launched 3 Pigs of Olympus exclusively across Entain’s UK-facing Ladbrokes, Coral Gala and Foxy brands in June. The company also said additional launches are being prepared for Portugal, Spain and New Zealand.

The latest phase includes football-themed titles such as Penalty Champion, Goals to Glory: Football Fever and Goals to Glory: Instant Blitz, alongside the supplier’s 3 Pigs IP. Graham Greensmith, Chief Commercial Officer at Gaming Corps, said: “For Gaming Corps, this is a huge milestone. Entain is one of the biggest names in global gaming, so to see our relationship grow in this way is a clear sign of the trust, performance and commercial value we have built together.

“What makes this particularly exciting is the scale of the opportunity. This is not a single-brand launch or a one-market rollout. Entain is continuing to take Gaming Corps content into more territories, across more of its brands, and that says a lot about where we are as a business.

“We have worked hard to build a portfolio that gives major operators real flexibility, from high-performing IP to timely, event-led content and new game formats. To see that strategy being recognised by a partner of Entain’s calibre is incredibly rewarding, and we are very excited about what comes next.”

Obdulio Bacarese, Global Gaming Director at Entain, added: “Gaming Corps has been a valuable partner over the last four years. The strength of the relationship lies in how easily the content can be activated around different commercial priorities, from supporting new market entries to adding timely releases around key calendar moments. The studio understands the need for content that is flexible, relevant and easy to position locally, and we are pleased to continue building on the partnership.”
