Videoslots, an award-winning regulated online casino founded in 2011, has successfully grown into a multibranded operator, currently representing four online casinos and one sportsbet casino. To pave the way for future growth, the company and its affiliated entities are consolidating all its consumer brands under the Immense Group umbrella in Malta.

The strategic rationale behind this transformation underscores Videoslots’ journey as a dynamic and expanding organisation, now managing a portfolio of five in-house-built, consumer-facing brands. The company believes its multi-brand strategy, focused on regulated markets, has been highly successful and it intends to continue along this path. Adopting a distinct Group name, separate from its consumer brands, is expected to help the company unlock the full potential of each brand within the portfolio.

“Videoslots Group has an impressive track record in a fast growing, rapidly changing industry. Adopting the Immense Group name reflects our ambition to continue driving progress and fostering growth for each individual brand “, says Alexander Stevendahl, CEO and co-founder of Videoslots.

Impact on Consumer Brands

The name change to Immense Group will not impact the customer-facing brands, including Videoslots, Mr Vegas, Kungaslottet, Mega Riches, and DBET. These brands will continue to operate under the new structure, delivering the same exceptional gaming experiences.

The meaning behind the name

The chosen name, “Immense,” reflects something that inspires awe and admiration. Videoslots is immensely proud of its strong culture, talented people, and long-term success in online gaming.

New formation of Immense Group AB

Conditional upon regulatory approval, Videoslots and all other brands in the portfolio will form part of Immense Group AB, a newly established holding company headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden.

Leadership

With over 20 years in the iGaming industry, Mr. Kärrbrink has held pivotal leadership roles, including CEO positions at Mr. Green Ltd. and Svenska Spel, as well as serving as Chairman of Pariplay Ltd, CEGO A/S and Internet Vikings AB. His strategic leadership at these organizations highlights his capability to scale businesses, navigate regulatory landscapes, and drive success in highly competitive environments.

“The Videoslots journey is a true success story. With four additional brands and a new corporate structure, now is the perfect time to introduce a new umbrella brand that carries the strong Videoslots culture into its next chapter,” says Jesper Kärrbrink, CEO of Immense Group AB.

BETBY ENHANCES ESPORTS EXPERIENCE WITH EXPANDED OUTRIGHTS AND PLAYER PROPS PORTFOLIO

BETBY, a premium sportsbook provider, has released a major update to its esports portfolio, introducing an unmatched selection of new outrights and player prop markets. With these additions, BETBY now offers three times more outright options than the market average and a completely unique range of player-specific betting markets, setting a new standard for player engagement opportunities through esports content.

BETBY’s expanded outright offerings deliver diversity and unmatched depth in the industry. For instance when it comes to Counter-Strike 2 (CS2), bettors can now access markets that go beyond the standard winners and most played maps, with new betting markets such as Tournament Most Valuable Player (MVP), Magnum Sniper Rifle (AWP) Kill Comparisons, and numerous others now available. In Dota, unique markets like Most Popular Hero (Picks + Bans) and Hero with Highest Kill Death Assist (KDA) provide a more engaging and data-driven betting experience. These markets are updated throughout the entirety of tournaments, ensuring players can place bets during breaks occurring between game days or stages. The update extends beyond Dota and CS2, as BETBY now offers unique outright markets as well for games like Escape from Tarkov: Arena and Standoff 2 – content which is currently not being offered elsewhere in the esports landscape.

The second significant enhancement is the introduction of a much broader esports player props portfolio, which is entirely developed by BETBY’s team of expert traders. This allows players to place bets on individual performances across all S-Tier, A-Tier, B-Tier, and C-Tier tournaments for main esports disciplines, and not only on the occurrence of major events.

These additions further bolster BETBY’s esports portfolio, following a series of major updates that underline the company’s focus on innovation and its dedication to providing engaging content for its partners and their end-users.

Kirill Nekrasov, Head of BETBY Games, commented: “We decided to accelerate the launch of new outrights and player prop markets for esports because we see a gap in the industry. We wanted to develop our own solutions and noticed that even though providers offer classic pre-tournament outrights, none of them provide continuously updated outrights when the events are in progress. Regarding player props, it’s relatively new content as part of our esports feed. If we talk about traditional sports, like soccer or basketball, it’s the standard for the industry. But I foresee that when it comes to esports it will as well be an absolute must-have in the future, with the performance and statistics of teams and players now becoming more widely available. Despite the fact that player props are not a new thing in the esports industry, these markets are offered only throughout top-tier tournaments and only for a limited number of teams. What we did was push this feature not only for top tournaments, but also B-Tier and C-Tier tournaments, whilst at the same time broadening player props coverage to a wider teams coverage.”

BETBY will be showcasing its premium sportsbook solutions and services at the upcoming ICE 2025 in Barcelona.
