Studio to shift up a gear with its own development and distribution platform as it sets its sights on new markets and more operator partnerships
Fantasma Games, the studio that produces slots beyond gambling, has rolled out Xpand, a powerful Remote Game Server (RGS) to strengthen its relationship with operators and to drive forward with its ambitious growth plans.
The Fantasma Xpand provides the studio with many benefits, including continued operational excellence and deepening support for its operator partners in scaling their content offerings around the studio’s premium games and products.
It also allows the studio to take its product roadmap and game production to the next level facilitating even more innovation by making it easier to bring new concepts, mechanics and gameplay to the market while speeding up time to market for new and existing partners.
The platform already comes with easy-to-use gamification tools and enables operators to quickly set up and manage player engagement activities such as prize drops, tournaments, missions and more.
Operators can take advantage of a standard API for integration, allowing Fantasma to strike and deploy new partnerships at scale and at speed.
Fantasma’s entire game portfolio is available via Xpand. This includes legacy titles such as Flower Fortune Megaways and its most recent releases like Shadow Summoner Elementals.
The launch of Fantasma Xpand is the next logical step in the studio’s development. It’s already built a reputation for producing thrilling content, often based on compelling narratives and with smart mechanics, to provide a unique player experience.
Armed with its RGS, Fantasma is now eyeing expansion into emerging markets such as Latin America and Africa having firmly established itself in Europe and the US.
Fredrik Johansson, Founder and CEO of Fantasma Games, said: “This is a milestone moment for Fantasma Games, allowing us to form stronger operator partners while also giving us greater control over our development and distribution.
“We have incredibly ambitious growth plans, both in terms of our product roadmap and increasing our roster of operator partners in core markets across the world, and we will only be able to achieve this with our own RGS.
“Ultimately, it will allow us to develop better games and deliver these games to more operators in more markets than ever before via a smooth, seamless, direct integration.”

Independent slots studio Thunderkick has deepened its existing collaboration with prominent European operator 777, extending the agreement into Spain.
The initial partnership in Belgium proved a success, with Casino777.es set to build on that momentum by integrating a range of products from Thunderkick’s diverse portfolio, including the full Midas Golden Touch franchise and its popular Día de Muertos-inspired series, Esqueleto Explosivo.
The expansion of the agreement marks another step in amplifying Thunderkick’s position in a competitive market, with its Spanish commercial network now spanning numerous European heavyweights and rising regional operators.
The 777 brand is well-established across the continent, where it continues to broaden its online reach in addition to consolidating its retail footing through a partnership with Casino de Spa, one of the world’s oldest land-based facilities.
The onboarding of Thunderkick’s content will further elevate 777.es’ online casino offering, giving players access to distinctive, engaging content, while also strengthening the Swedish studio’s visibility in a jurisdiction earmarked as a priority within its wider European growth strategy.
Mariam Dodosh, Key Account Manager at Thunderkick, said: “The ongoing relationship between 777 and Thunderkick in Belgium is a fruitful one, and the expansion into Spain marked the natural next step of this collaboration.
“Our content continues to drive results with operators in the market, and we look forward to seeing our fan-favourite titles resonate with a new audience at 777.es.”
César Paredes, Country Manager at 777.es, added: “We have thoroughly enjoyed working with Thunderkick, and its commitment to creativity shines through in its games.
“We have no doubt Casino777.es players will enjoy the brand-new additions to our online casino as we continue to deliver fresh, dynamic content to the Spanish market. The integration of Thunderkick into our portfolio is another step in our commitment to providing our players with the best possible gaming experience.”
