Kinguin has announced the launch of a brand new esports series – Kinguin Legends – aimed at reigniting the legendary stories of esports pros from across the world. Kicking off for the first time this summer with the Kinguin Legends CS:GO tournament, it will give the participating players another opportunity to compete against each other at the highest level.

The tournament will feature highly skilled rosters, which will be captained by some of the most well-known CS:GO players to have ever played the game. They will build their teams and match up against each other to crown themselves the very first Kinguin Legends champion. Details of the tournament, and the captains participating, will be released closer to the start of the tournament itself on Kinguin social media channels (Twitter, Instagram and Facebook).

Kinguin has a long-standing history in CS:GO and esports, having founded their own CS:GO team – Team Kinguin – in 2015, who have won top-tier CS:GO titles such as DreamHack Open Montreal. Kinguin also runs and operates one of the only dedicated Esports Performance Centres in Europe, regularly accommodating top esports teams for bootcamps and training throughout the year. This deep-rooted passion for esports, and the wider gaming community, fueled Kinguin’s ambitions to create a fully loaded entertainment experience that will pull inspiration from esports, gaming, and music to deliver the ultimate viewing experience for fans.

Kinguin Legends CS:GO is to be the first of many tournaments planned under the Kinguin Legends brand, with further iterations planned for later in the year and beyond. The tournaments will look to relive the storylines brought to life by some of the most legendary players in esports history while also creating new moments and stories for fans just beginning their esports journey.

“Kinguin Legends was created from the notion that we all remember the iconic moments in esports and the emotions associated with them. We wanted to provide a space for the community to relive those moments, with some of their favourite esports personalities, and create new and equally thrilling moments to live alongside them. We hope that fans enjoy the competition and continue to tune in for many years to come,” Viktor Romaniuk Wanli, Founder and Creative Director at Kinguin, said.

Vixio, a leading provider of regulatory intelligence and change management solutions, today announced two major milestones: achieving ISO 27001 certification for information security management and launching the latest evolution of Vixio Workspace, the company’s AI-enabled workspace to help compliance teams simplify compliance processes.

Together, these developments demonstrate Vixio’s continued commitment to helping compliance professionals operate with confidence, efficiency, and trust in an increasingly complex regulatory environment.

Stephen Lovell, Chief Product Officer for Vixio, said: “Our clients rely on Vixio to deliver accurate, timely and trusted regulatory intelligence. Achieving ISO 27001 certification and launching our enhanced Workspace platform reflect twin priorities: protecting sensitive information to the highest international standard, and equipping compliance teams with powerful, intelligent tools that simplify regulatory complexity. We’re turning our tried-and-true horizon scanning into simpler horizon planning capabilities.”

ISO 27001 Certification: Reinforcing Trust and Data Security

ISO 27001 is the globally recognised standard for information security management systems (ISMS), awarded to organisations that meet rigorous criteria for managing and mitigating data risks. The certification covers Vixio’s operations, systems and processes used to deliver its intelligence platforms and client services, ensuring robust controls are in place to protect sensitive information.

This milestone follows a series of investments by Vixio to enhance its infrastructure, data governance, and security frameworks, ensuring clients continue to benefit from reliable, secure and industry-leading regulatory intelligence solutions.

Vixio Workspace: Powering Compliance with Intelligence and Automation

Vixio Workspace, launched in 2025, is an AI-enabled, centralised, collaborative workspace that connects compliance and business strategy, enabling teams to integrate regulatory insight with workflow execution, create a fully auditable trail, and streamline both compliance and go-to-market processes. Since its launch, client feedback and growing market demand to simplify compliance processes have fuelled the next phase of its evolution.

“We designed Vixio Workspace to bring order to complexity and replace the old-fashioned spreadsheet systems,” added Lovell. “By combining Vixio’s trusted intelligence with secure, evidence-based automation, we’re empowering compliance teams to make faster, more confident decisions.”

Vixio has now expanded the tool with new features to help compliance teams manage regulatory change in one place:

Triage Tool (‘Smart Inbox’): Available now, the Triage Tool (smart inbox) filters thousands of updates to the few that truly affect users, based on their watchlists, regions, and compliance focus. Using machine learning, it surfaces priority regulatory changes unique to each user.
Vixio API: Also available now is a Vixio API, which allows clients to seamlessly connect Vixio’s regulatory intelligence and triage workflow into their own internal tools, dashboards, or compliance systems. This is in addition to Vixio Workspace’s plug-and-play deployment, which is designed for teams who prefer a fast, low-effort set up rather than custom integrations.
Requirements Extraction: Finally, coming soon, Vixio Workspace will feature a Requirements Extraction tool that allows users to search, snippet, and save passages directly from regulatory sources and documents to build precise compliance evidence.

These enhancements give compliance professionals a centralised, intelligent platform that saves time, reduces regulatory risk, and adapts as regulations and business priorities evolve.

“My initial reaction to the new Vixio Workspace tool is that I loved it. I think it will solve so many problems for compliance managers and compliance teams, having that single source of truth, having that workflow tool all built into one,” said Anoushka Thompson, Governance, Risk & Compliance Executive.

For these innovations and more, Vixio was recently recognised as a Compliance Solution of the Year at the 2025 International Business Awards and Best RegTech Platform at the FinTech Breakthrough Awards, both awards received for the second consecutive year. These accolades reflect the company’s continued leadership in delivering secure, intelligent, and transformative regulatory technology solutions to its global client base.

Evolution today announced the launch of Red Baron, a new and exhilarating online crash game in which a plane takes off with a winnings multiplier that can climb up to 20,000x. With this soaring prize potential on offer, players must decide whether to set Auto Cash Out, or to time a manual cash-out to perfection, just before the plane and multiplied payout fly away!

Players can stay informed throughout the flight with real-time statistics. These highlight top wins from recent rounds and provide live updates as fellow players cash out, adding a fun, social element of live engagement with other

players.

Red Baron is the third crash game from Evolution and is available in two versions to meet the needs of different markets and jurisdictions: one version comes with a live video stream featuring a red-uniformed game host; the other is a host-free version without the live stream. It follows Evolution’s successful Stock Market and Race Track titles, and is set to further strengthen the brand’s position in the crash genre.

Todd Haushalter, Evolution’s Chief Product Officer, said: “Our roadmaps are full of exciting game concepts and variants the world has never seen before. Red Baron is a great example of such a game. The ‘crash’ games genre is well-established online, but we saw an opportunity here to make the game more social, and also to simplify the gameplay and make it more appealing to a mainstream audience.”

Haushalter added: “I am so proud of how our team created a fun sense of competition between players and made the playing experience incredibly intuitive. I’m confident that both veteran crash players and first-time players will love what we have done with Red Baron. It continues down a path we are pursuing right now of speedier games like Ice Fishing, Stock Market and others, and I think it’s going to be very popular!”

One of the highlights of the event was Yaroslav Soloshenko, Head of Business Development, taking the stage for a panel discussion titled “Battle For the Bottom Line: Does Product or Marketing Drive Growth.” The session brought together industry leaders from across streaming networks, affiliates, and studios to break down the balance between innovative product development and how they’re marketed.

Sharing Insights on the Global Stage

Yaroslav’s panel participation reflected ELA Games’ rising status as a key thought leader in the industry. He highlighted various challenges and rising trends while providing insightful solutions that have helped propel ELA Games forward.

He emphasised three areas of importance that help studios develop innovation and market to wider audiences: product flexibility, partner alignment, and a deep understanding of local markets when expanding. Yaroslav also pointed out the power that streaming and influencer promotion can have, but only when the content matches the audience’s preferences.

Yaroslav reflected on his panel speakership, “Speaking at SiGMA Rome was an opportunity to highlight how growth doesn’t work in isolation — it’s about how well product and marketing can work together. I had the pleasure of demonstrating how ELA Games’ strong product foundations, flexibility, and alignment with partners have allowed us to promote our games effectively and tailor experiences to diverse audiences. The conversation we had on stage reflected that long-term success becomes a formula once studios build adaptable products supported by deep industry knowledge.”

An Emphasis on Partner Value & Sustainable Growth

The ELA Games team shared in-depth conversations with operators, partners, and like-minded innovators to gather new perspectives and future-facing ideas. The team’s approach was one of collaboration and mutual value, which helped develop key relationships moving forward.

These exchanges reinforced the studio’s growth philosophy: player-focused game experiences, partner value, and a focus on positive gaming experiences. The insights gained in Rome will play a role in ELA Games’ roadmap as the studio continues its growth in Europe and beyond.
