Playson, the accomplished digital entertainment supplier, has secured its entry into Brazil, further reinforcing its Latin American footprint.
The landmark move signifies a major milestone for the award-winning game studio as it enters one of the world’s most eagerly anticipated regulated iGaming markets.
