Popular iGaming content provider BGaming has teamed up with Portuguese street artist Gonçalo MAR to create floral artwork as part of its creative initiative dedicated to the participation of iGaming exhibitions.

Through the ‘When Art Meets Gaming’ series, BGaming teamed up with local graffiti artist Gonçalo MAR, who has combined elements of comic book, floral and street art styles to produce vibrant and surreal pieces. For 25 years this talented creator has participated in group exhibitions, art festivals and solo showcases all over Portugal, and in 2022, received the Medal of Cultural Merit from the Municipal Chamber of Seixal.

For BGaming’s 7th art collaboration, street artist Gonçalo MAR used leaves and flowers designs and combined them with BGaming’s most loved characters from games such as Aztec Clusters, Elvis Frog Trueways, Aztec Magic Megaways, and Book of Cats, ahead of SBC Summit 2024 in Lisbon.

Alongside artwork to be displayed at BGaming’s stand, the provider has also developed branded merchandise and gifts for the partners and attendees of the event, which runs from 24th to 26th September.

For this partnership, the games studio will make a donation to the European Intercultural Club, a Portuguese non-profit association founded in 1998, that supports youth education, training, and employability. The Club organises activities that respect values and principles such as democracy, human rights, solidarity, equality, interculturality, respect, and appreciation for differences.

BGaming continues to support local street artists in the countries hosting some of the industry’s biggest events, ensuring their presence benefits local communities.

Kate Puteiko, CMO at BGaming, said: “This latest collaboration continues to build on BGaming’s reputation as a modern creative game provider that is open to collaborations and co-creation. We love to experiment, as is demonstrated in our striking games and history of unique exhibition art.

“We are thrilled that Gonçalo MAR will be giving our iconic characters a makeover once more, this time as they prepare to appear at SBC Summit 2024.”

Street artist Gonçalo MAR said: “I consider myself a street artist for the simple reason that my work communicates very well on the streets and I am passionate about social commentary. I like the idea of viewing the streets as open-air art galleries.

“This partnership with BGaming arose from the connection the company has with street art and I am very proud to have been chosen. The challenge of transforming the game characters into my style gave me immense pleasure and the process of deconstructing the characters went far beyond what I expected in a very positive and rewarding way.”

Casino Guru, the global authority on online casino transparency and player safety, is expanding its portfolio with the introduction of a dedicated sweepstakes casino overview tailored to the rapidly evolving U.S. market.

Following months of in-depth research and development, the company has unveiled a new initiative focused on social sweepstakes casinos — a unique and increasingly popular segment of the online gaming space. As part of this expansion, Casino Guru has adapted its trusted Safety Index to reflect the specific characteristics of sweepstakes casino models.

“We’ve been hearing about sweepstakes casinos for quite some time, from social media buzz to community discussions and expert panels,” said Jozef Krucay, Branch Operations Lead at Casino Guru. “It became clear this wasn’t just a passing trend, but a notable shift in how people engage with online entertainment.”

Unlike traditional online casinos, sweepstakes casinos use virtual currencies such as Gold Coins, Sweeps Cash, or Vegas Gems. Players can enjoy games for free or use purchasable coins to enhance their experience. With some luck, they may receive a special sweepstakes currency, which can be redeemed for real-world prizes — presenting both exciting opportunities and important considerations for player protection.

Casino Guru’s newly launched content includes:

  • Listings for 11 published sweepstakes casinos, with over 60 more identified and currently in development
  • An adapted Safety Index that reflects the distinct risks and rules of sweepstakes platforms
  • Educational materials and player resources, including complaint-handling tools
  • Planned detailed reviews to provide deeper insights into each platform

“Our goal is to help players navigate this growing space with the same clarity and confidence we’ve brought to traditional online casinos,” Jozef added. “As always, our focus remains on transparency, safety, and informed decision-making.”

This new direction positions Casino Guru at the forefront of player advocacy in emerging casino formats — with a clear path toward future expansion in the broader world of social and sweepstakes gaming.

MixRift unveils brand new strategic PvP arena gaming experience

MixRift, an innovative mixed reality (MR) gaming developer, today announced the official launch of Battle Orb, a competitive strategy game which invites players to challenge each other and transform their physical surroundings into dynamic battlefields. Available now for Meta Quest platforms, Battle Orb represents the next evolution in mutli-player MR gaming.

A first PvP game for MixRift, Battle Orb allows players to step into immersive arenas where physical and digital worlds collide. Skill meets chaos in this fast-paced multiplayer strategy game, which challenges players to aim, shoot, and dominate with speed and precision across customized battlefields, combining tactical thinking with physics-based gameplay. Every hit counts as players collide, strategise and outplay opponents from around the world, from the comfort of their own homes. Players can compete in 2-player or 4-player battles, earn trophies, unlock and upgrade powerful units, and master unique arenas to climb the leaderboard.

“With Battle Orb, we’re not just launching a game, we’re basically turning your living room into a fantasy battleground.” said Bobby Voicu, CEO of MixRift. “We wanted to create something where anyone can jump in and start having fun in seconds, but that you could also master and keep replaying. I think this is what the future of gaming looks like, and it’s a blast!”

Key Features:

  • HD Graphics: Cutting-edge MR design technology creates a truly immersive gaming experience
  • Creative Character Options: Choose from tens of monsters, creatures, and cartoons to play with – each one zanier than the last
  • Real-Time PvP Action: Face-off in 2-player or 4-player matches full of high-stakes action
  • Physics Meets Strategy: Master the perfect angle, power, and timing to outmaneuver opponents, and perfect your shots to climb through the ranks
  • Unique Units & Powers: Earn wins and open loot chests to unlock and upgrade special characters and abilities
  • Environmental Integration: Scale your battlefield to fit any space, turning living rooms into competitive arenas
  • Competitive Progression: Climb global leaderboards through a rewarding rank system and prove you’re the righteous winner

The game’s intuitive controls ensure players of all skill levels can jump in immediately, while the strategic elements provide long-term engagement for competitive gamers. Battle Orb’s intuitive and quick matchmaking system means players are matched with others in similar ranks within seconds.

Battle Orb has been designed with comfort and safety in mind, earning a “Comfortable” rating and PEGI 3 classification, making it appropriate for players of all ages while still delivering compelling gameplay for serious competitors.

“We’ve created Battle Orb to be a really special mixed-reality competitive experience,” said Voicu. “The way it transforms your physical environment into a strategic battlefield creates moments of gaming magic that simply aren’t possible in traditional formats.”

Availability:
Battle Orb is available now on the Meta Quest Store for Meta Quest 3S, Meta Quest 3, and Meta Quest 2 platforms. The game requires an internet connection for its online features.
