As a global leader in live gaming solutions, we were delighted to showcase our latest advancements and comprehensive product portfolio to the Asian gaming market at G2E Asia 2025, held from May 7th to 9th. Our booth at the Venetian Macao drew significant attention from attendees eager to experience our state-of-the-art solutions and renowned quality firsthand.

A key highlight for us was the revolutionary Velocity Auto Wheel, which generated considerable attention for its cutting-edge automation and seamless integration with the Wheelmate console. Our demonstrations underscored its potential to establish a new benchmark for speed and efficiency in live roulette, enabling operators to enhance table turnover and revenue through an increased number of games per hour. Attendees noted its innovative brushless DC motors and gearless design, which ensure continuous, reliable operation without the requirement for bulky air compressors, as well as its compact design’s adaptability to diverse casino layouts.

Also prominent in our showcase was the Chipper Champ 3, representing the next generation of chip sorting efficiency. Its unique capability to process clay chips, combined with enhanced speed and accuracy, proved to be a significant draw. Operators recognized the potential of this advanced technology to substantially reduce handling time and optimize overall table operations.

Our advanced display technologies also attracted considerable attention. The versatile Ora Table Displays were commended for their clarity, customisation options, and reliable presentation of essential game information. Of particular interest was the launch and demonstration of our groundbreaking Ora Blackjack Vue Display Controller. Seamlessly integrated with the Ora Luxe Winning Number Display, this innovative product employs advanced camera technology for automatic card recognition, providing players with real-time data including dealer hand history, live dealer odds, historical statistics, and the last four dealer Blackjacks. This innovation was acknowledged as a significant advancement in player engagement and Blackjack technology.

We also provided compelling demonstrations of our T-Connect casino management system, a critical tool already utilized by numerous casinos across Asia. The system’s capacity to streamline operations, enhance security protocols, and deliver invaluable data insights resonated strongly with operators aiming to optimise their gaming floors.

The popular Blaze Gaming tables, particularly the Sic Bo variant, effectively illustrated how dynamic LED surface technology can enhance the excitement of traditional games, creating a more engaging and visually appealing environment for players.

Beyond these innovations, our commitment to manufacturing excellence was evident through the display of our world-class core product range. From the precision engineering of our Roulette wheels and the detailed craftsmanship of our Gaming Tables to the dependable performance of our Dice Shakers, visitors could readily observe the superior quality that characterises TCSJOHNHUXLEY products.

• BLAST Dota Slam Singapore to take place this November at Singapore Indoor Stadium in partnership with Singapore Tourism Board and AEG Presents Asia

• The world’s best Dota teams will meet in Singapore from 4th – 9th November 2025 to compete for a prize pool of $1,000,000 at the first ever BLAST Slam arena event 

Esports entertainment company BLAST has announced the return of its world-class events to Singapore with the BLAST Dota Slam Singapore, set to take place in November 2025 at the Singapore Indoor Stadium, supported by the Singapore Tourism Board (STB).

This announcement follows the sellout success of the BLAST Premier World Final 2024, which marked BLAST’s Southeast Asia debut and saw more than ten-thousand fans pack out the Resorts World Convention Centre to witness the world’s top Counter-Strike teams compete for the $1 million prize pool.

Building on that momentum, Singapore will now host the BLAST Dota Slam arena event, teaming up with AEG Presents Asia again to bring together the world’s best Dota teams to battle it out for $1,000,000 in front of a live audience and millions of fans tuning in globally across 50+ territories and in 12 languages.

The BLAST Dota Slam Singapore is the latest milestone in BLAST’s global expansion into Dota 2, and reinforces Singapore’s growing reputation as a premier destination for sports and live entertainment. It marks the second consecutive year the city-state has hosted a BLAST arena tournament, following the successful Counter-Strike event in 2024.

James Woollard, Director of Market Development at BLAST, said: “Singapore delivered one of the most passionate esports crowds we’ve ever seen during last year’s BLAST Premier World Final. We’re thrilled to be returning with our next major arena show – this time for Dota 2 – and to once again partner with the Singapore Tourism Board and AEG Presents Asia to help to further grow Southeast Asia’s esports ecosystem. The response to our events in Singapore has been incredible, and this November’s Dota Slam promises to be another landmark moment for fans and for the region. Singapore has an impressive history and pedigree for the biggest international sporting events, supported by STB, and BLAST is proud to be building on this with the biggest esports events.”

Ms Lilian Chee, Director, Sports, Singapore Tourism Board, said: “We are delighted to welcome BLAST back to Singapore, this time with the Dota Slam. Building on the success of the BLAST Premier World Final, this event further reinforces Singapore’s reputation as a world-class destination for sports and live entertainment. We look forward to welcoming the passionate fans, players and partners once again to our vibrant city.”

BLAST’s return to Singapore is set to shine a global spotlight on the city while delivering significant economic benefits and meaningful destination marketing. With an estimated economic impact in the tens of millions, the tournament further demonstrates how esports events are evolving into major cultural and economic drivers for host cities – on par with large-scale traditional international sporting events.

With Singapore, Rio, London, Austin, and Lyon among the major destinations on BLAST’s global calendar this year, it is evident that governments, cities and tourism bodies are recognising the power of esports to attract young and engaged visitors, create jobs, and drive international visibility.
