The Balkan gaming market is undergoing significant changes, with new regulations and evolving market dynamics shaping the industry’s future. The recent EEGS Webinar, “Balkan Gaming Landscape – a Maze or Amaze? Deep dive in the markets (Pt. 2),” provided an in-depth analysis of these developments. The session featured industry experts including Angel Iribozov, Vasko Ilijevski, Dan Iliovici, Ovidiu Iosif, and Zoran Puhac, moderated by Rossi McKee, Co-Founder of Telematic Interactive Bulgaria and Honorary Chair of AGIB.

Key topics discussed included the impact of recent regulatory changes in Bulgaria and Romania, challenges and opportunities in North Macedonia’s gaming market, and the importance of responsible gaming initiatives across the region. The speakers emphasized the need for a balanced approach that considers both regulatory objectives and the economic contributions of the gaming industry.

Angel Iribozov, Chairman of the Association of the Gaming Industry in Bulgaria (AGIB), highlighted the substantial regulatory changes in Bulgaria, focusing on both the positive steps towards reducing unlicensed operations and the challenges posed by the new advertising restrictions. “The recent regulations aim to limit unlicensed operations, but the advertising restrictions pose significant challenges for licensed operators to reach their audience,” said Iribozov.

EGT’s jackpot Gods & Kings Link made its debut in Bulgaria. The first local gaming establishment to install the product is the largest casino in the country GoldenEye, located in Svilengrad.

“We are very happy to once again have the opportunity to support our partners from GoldenEye by providing them with one of the latest developments from our slot portfolio,” commented Biserka Draganova, Sales Manager for the Balkans and Egypt at EGT. “The fact that out of a total of 500 machines in the casino, 320 are EGT’s is a testament to the great confidence they have in us, and I believe that Gods & Kings Link will show the excellent results expected from it.”

The product is currently available on several cabinets of the G 50 J2 St model, and will be installed on more by the end of June. Gods & Kings Link has 4 levels of jackpot: Minor and Mini, that are fixed for each machine and Grand and Major, which are progressive and can be won with every bet made on any of the 4 games Rise of Ra, Olympus Glory, Ape of luck and Glorious Alexander. The Grand and Major levels are common with EGT’s bestseller jackpot Bell Link, thus creating even greater chances for wealth.
