Gaming Corps, a publicly listed company from Sweden, has announced a significant expansion of its Remote Game Server (RGS) agreement with a major global iGaming group. Beginning in August 2025, the company will double its monthly game output under the agreement, delivering two new game titles per month. This extended commitment carries an initial rolling annual order value of SEK 28 million.

This development is part of Gaming Corps’ broader strategic partnership with its major shareholder Denwena Limited, first communicated in June 2025. The collaboration has accelerated Gaming Corps’ growth trajectory and increased production demands for its original content.

To support the delivery of this expanded pipeline, Gaming Corps is actively scaling its game development organisation through targeted recruitment and organisational investment. A portion of the agreement has been structured as prepaid, enabling the company to fund this growth initiative without the need for external financing.

Juha Kauppinen, CEO of Gaming Corps, says: “Our close collaboration with Denwena Limited gives us the opportunity to write completely new chapters in Gaming Corps’ journey. It’s hard to find much stronger proof of that than the fact that the RGS deal is now doubling for a second time, meaning that from now on we’ll be delivering two games per month. We are also in interesting discussions with other game studios who are interested in our RGS offering due to our strong distribution network and our innovative unique game engines.”

Gaming Corps’ expansion of its RGS production schedule underscores its long-term commitment to becoming a leading B2B content provider in the global iGaming space. The company’s focus on building proprietary game engines, coupled with a growing distribution network, positions it well to attract additional partners and drive future profitability.
