Supplier’s portfolio now available to players on the recently launched online casino platform

NetEnt has launched its leading portfolio of casino games with Wind Creek’s expanded online offering, to include iGaming in Pennsylvania, expanding its reach in the fast-growing US state market.

Having added RMG options to its existing social offering in August, the esteemed land-based operator can now offer the supplier’s market leading casino content to online audiences, including its popular range of table games and local top performer Divine Fortune.

The partnership further increases NetEnt’s market share in Pennsylvania, where it has expanded significantly since first launching last year. The state has proved to be a major success for the company with consistent quarterly growth.

“It’s a major achievement to be supporting Wind Creek in its online journey,” says Brian Kraft, NetEnt Vice President Commercial, Americas. “The deal underlines our status as a go-to supplier in Pennsylvania both with established operators and emerging brands. Given the strong performance of our content with local players, this partnership will no doubt see Wind Creek make a big impact in the online landscape.”

Ken Rohman, Chief Marketing Officer at Wind Creek Hospitality said: “It’s an exciting time to be adding iGaming to our offering in Pennsylvania’s online arena, and with NetEnt’s portfolio of market favourite casino games we are in a strong position to quickly gain market share. We look forward to working with their knowledgeable team to build on our offering and deliver a first-rate online experience to our players.”

Prime Skill Games Inc. Official Response to AGCO Press Release

Published

As CEO of Prime Skill Games Inc., I feel compelled to address recent comments made by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario regarding so-called unapproved gambling machines in convenience stores across the province.

Let me be perfectly clear

Our machines are not gambling devices. They are entirely skill-based, fully compliant with the law, and built on the fundamental idea that players are in control. The outcome of every session is determined solely by the player’s ability, not by random chance.

Prime Skill Games is proud to be the only true skill game operating in Ontario today.

We categorically reject any suggestion that our products fall under the definition of unregulated gambling. Such statements are inaccurate, misleading, and fail to recognize the critical distinction between games of skill and games of chance.

We stand firmly behind the legality of our machines and the integrity of our operations. We will demonstrate this through every available means, whether through legal documentation, expert analysis, or, if necessary, before the courts. We are prepared and unafraid to defend the truth.

To our players, partners, and business community, we want to reassure you that our mission has not changed. We are committed to offering a responsible, transparent, and innovative entertainment experience. We will not be intimidated by broad and baseless accusations, and we will continue to move forward with strength and clarity.

 

Sincerely

Matt Zamroźniak

Chief Executive Officer

Prime Skill Games Inc.
