Svenska Spel’s independent research council has granted SEK2.2m (€2.1m) in funds to research gambling addiction in Sweden.

The total amount will be divided over four research projects and aims to fuel study into the reasons for gambling addiction and how players can find support. Since Svenska Spel’s independent research council was established in 2019, it has granted SEK45m in funds to 35 research projects and studies.

“This year’s applications were high quality and showed breadth,” Sara Lindholm, Chair of Svenska Spel’s independent research council, said.

“It is socially important that we continue to support research that aims to develop evidence-based methods to counteract gambling. In addition, it is important that research can help society develop new treatment methods for gambling addiction,” Sara Lindholm added.

Jakob Jonsson at the Center for Psychiatric Research, Karolinska Institutet, has been awarded SEK727,892 to further his study on whether self-testing measures affect players’ gambling behaviours.

Sofia Vadlin, from the Center for Clinical Research for the region of Västmanland, has received SEK500,000 of the total to explore the effects of the novel coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic on gambling behaviours and gambling problems.

Researcher Anna Söderpalm Gordh, of Sahlgrenska Academy, received SEK500,000 to fund research into computer game addiction. The study will evaluate the effects of a 15-week cognitive behavioural therapy course designed to address an addiction to computer games.

The final SEK500,000 has been granted to Tobias Elgan at the Department of Neuroscience, Karolinska Institutet, to investigate why gambling problems are more prominent in elite male athletes.

Million Games launches Infinite X with progression-based crash gameplay

New instant game adds energy management and rebuy mechanics across 40 levels, letting players cash out or continue while keeping multiplier progress.

Million Games has launched Infinite X, a progression-based instant game, the studio said on 9 June 2026 in Skövde, Sweden. The release targets operators and aggregators via Million Games.

The game uses a continuous progression model rather than a single-event outcome. Players guide a character, Joe, up a staircase of 32 steps across 40 levels, with each step consuming energy and every 5th step restoring it.

Multiplier growth builds as players climb, with the option to cash out at any point. Players can also rebuy to continue from their current position while retaining both progress and multiplier, with rebuy costs scaling based on progression and potential reward.

“Infinite X represents a different way of thinking about instant games,” said Thomas Nimstad, CEO of Million Games. “Instead of focusing on a single result, we’ve built an experience around progression, strategy, and player control. By combining multiplier growth, energy management, and rebuy decisions, Infinite X creates a gameplay loop that feels engaging from the first step to the last.”

Million Games said Infinite X includes energy-based progression, randomised power-ups, and an accelerating multiplier curve designed to reward players for pushing further.
