White Hat Studios has launched Super Mode, a new promotional tool, with Fanatics Casino in the US iGaming market. The company said the feature is being integrated with Fanatics Casino across all four states where the operator currently runs iGaming.

Super Mode is a configurable random-prize mechanic that can be activated on eligible White Hat Studios games. According to White Hat Studios, prizes can include free spins and cash payouts, with the operator controlling promotional parameters such as scheduling, duration, and participating titles.

White Hat Studios positions the launch as the first phase of its upcoming Amplify Suite, an “all-in-one operational ecosystem” intended to bring together its game families, jackpot content, bespoke products, and gamification solutions in a single framework.

Daniel Lechner, SVP Sales and Marketing at White Hat Studios, said: “Debuting Super Mode with Fanatics Casino is a landmark moment for White Hat Studios, and an important step in bringing our all-in-one solution, Amplify Suite, to operators across regulated US iGaming markets.

“Fanatics Casino is an ideal launch partner. It is a leading brand in multiple states with a clear focus on engagement, and the addition of Super Mode to its gamification portfolio provides the operator with a powerful new way to create standout moments for players.”

Kieron Shaw, Sr. Manager Casino Content at Fanatics Casino, added: “Super Mode allows us to add a new layer of excitement to White Hat Studios’ already popular titles. With customisable graphics and full control over promotions and player segmentation, it will enable us to deliver more engaging campaigns that prioritise the user experience.”

Swintt has appointed Etienne Azzopardi as Managing Director, confirming its former COO in the permanent role after a three-month interim period that began in January. The move follows the departure of outgoing CEO David Mann, as the company continues a wider strategic restructure.

Swintt said Azzopardi will lead product strategy, future market expansion and team development. During his interim term, the company said it released 12 titles, including three games under its Elysium Studios label.

The supplier also pointed to two partnership deals signed during the same period: NetBet adding Swintt content for Greece, and SkillOnNet taking Select, Premium and Elysium Studios games across its .com, UK and MX brands.

Looking ahead, Swintt said it plans to maintain monthly content output and pursue further growth in regulated jurisdictions. The company added that Switzerland is scheduled to be its next major market target in 2026.

Etienne Azzopardi, Managing Director at Swintt, said: “I’m delighted to have been appointed Managing Director at Swintt. Since joining the company in 2021, I’ve had a hand in everything from operational management and roadmap optimisation to market licensing and game certification, and the experience I’ve picked up in those four and a half years will prove crucial in my new role.

Having spent three months acting as Interim Managing Director, I feel very privileged to be taking the role on a permanent basis and believe this will be the catalyst for Swintt to continue its outstanding recent growth in regulated markets worldwide. With a packed product roadmap already planned for 2026, it’s going to be an amazing journey and I’m excited to continue growing the Swintt brand.”
