The symbiotic relationship will see the game creator’s exciting and innovative portfolio integrated into CasinoMania’s platform, driving customer engagement for the partner and increasing Thunderkick’s player base in the jurisdiction.
The collaboration marks the latest milestone in Thunderkick’s global growth plans which sees it turn its attention back to Europe following the recent launch in Canada’s regulated Ontario market.
Following a successful opening six months in 2024, the Stockholm-based studio has outlined a desire to amplify its presence in key strategic countries on its home continent, which includes targeting Italy, where the provider hopes to increase its market share to unlock a new collection of players.
Among the games which will become available to CasinoMania players are the recent releases Midas Golden Touch 2, King of the Party, and Sword of Arthur, as well as fan-favourites Xterminate and Hot Potato!
Andrea Brioschi, Key Account Manager at Thunderkick, said: “While there has been a lot of focus on the Ontario and US sweepstake launches, Thunderkick remains committed to fortifying its brand on the European iGaming scene.
“CasinoMania is a respected operator in Italy that has cultivated a catalogue of entertaining games from industry leaders. We are sure the addition of Thunderkick’s unique, cutting-edge titles will only strengthen this offering further.”
Calvi Lorenzo, Member of the Board of Directors at Cristaltec, added: “We are excited to announce the new partnership with Thunderkick, which will allow us to expand our offering of high-quality games in CasinoMania’s online casino, part of the Cristaltec Group.
“This partnership will enable us to provide our customers with a wide selection of excellent games, demonstrating our continuous commitment to exceeding expectations in the iGaming sector.”
