According to the interim report for the year that was released by NetEnt yesterday, expansion in locally regulated markets continues to be an important part of the company’s business and sustainability strategy. According to the plan, the Swedish digital entertainment company has just signed with a major operator in North America, secured its presence in the re-regulation of Sweden’s gambling market for 2019 with Svenska Spel, and signed a deal with Finland’s state-owned gaming operator Veikkaus.

Microgaming has just announced its fourth exclusive game studio that will provide its operators with deluxe content. It’s called Fortune Factory Studios and they are ready to launch their very first video slot across Microgaming casinos as soon as 24^th October 2018!

It’s been raining progressive jackpots recently and the latest mega win on NetEnt’s flagship Mega Fortune slot is here to prove that once again. A PokerStars Casino player from Germany converted his €2-deposit into €3,469,139.45 ($4,078,112.92), setting a new record for the casino and leaving everyone else green with envy.

October 31 and with it the ghostly Halloween too is creeping up on us. So let’s go over some of the new and upcoming Halloween themed video slots from a few of the top developers: NetEnt, Yggdrasil and Microgaming.

Yggdrasil, an award-winning iGaming developer, continues its expansion in the Nordic and Scandinavian region signing two more partnerships. This time the deals are with state-owned operators: Paf (Ålands Penningautomatförening) and Swedish horse racing specialist ATG. Among the games will be the developer’s latest releases and maybe even progressive jackpots, which we also touch upon below.
