Swintt unveil game-changing new partnership program, SwinttStudios
Sought-after software provider’s new product vertical will enable third-party studios to launch on the Swintt platform, with Fine Edge Gaming set to become its first partner
Software innovator Swintt is delighted to announce the launch of SwinttStudios – an additional product vertical that will allow third-party studios to develop and distribute their product using the Swintt platform.
The SwinttStudios project is a brand-new initiative designed to help boutique software providers develop games within the existing Swintt framework. It will allow studios to focus more on the design and theme of their titles, while Swintt handles the nuts and bolts of game logic and product delivery.
Having only been announced this month, the revolutionary partnership program is set to hit the ground running straight away, with North American software provider, Fine Edge Gaming, already confirming that they will distribute six exciting slot titles via SwinttStudios throughout 2022.
Founded and managed by a team with huge experience in the US land-based sector, Fine Edge Gaming will use the opportunity to create a range of engaging games that will cater for player tastes in North America and beyond with the aid of Swintt’s extensive distribution network and useful back-end tools.
With two titles – Stacking Bisons and Diego’s Hunt – already confirmed, Fine Edge Gaming will use the SwinttStudios platform to develop and release a further four games throughout the year, with the collaboration enabling it to use Swintt’s licensing and partnerships to quickly roll out its new products.
Having spent over 35 years in the land-based gaming sector working for heavyweights like IGT and Incredible Technologies, Fine Edge Gaming Lead Founder, Beena Blake, is already a hugely experienced figure in the gaming industry – however, the additional technology and support offered by Swintt will certainly open up new doors and help her strengthen the company’s online presence.
With both parties expecting the partnership to be a resounding success, the deal between Fine Edge Gaming and SwinttStudios looks likely to be the first of many important collaborations on the new product vertical. It will simultaneously allow Swintt to make an instant impact with its latest venture by teaming up with an ambitious and hugely respected third-party studio, while also enabling Fine Edge Gaming to share its latest batch of games with new customers in a broad selection of markets.
David Mann, Chief Commercial Officer at Swintt, said: “With many independent suppliers requiring the support and know-how of an established industry partner, we’re delighted to be able to unveil our game-changing new partnership program, SwinttStudios. “Through SwinttStudios, we’ll be able to provide the perfect platform for providers such as Fine Edge Gaming to quickly and efficiently release their product in the markets they need to be seen. With six titles scheduled in 2022, we’re looking forward to working with them on this ambitious new project.”
Beena Blake, Lead Founder of Fine Edge Gaming, said: “The SwinttStudios project is an incredibly significant innovation in the iGaming industry and we’re honoured to be the first software provider to put the new product vertical through its paces.
“By teaming up with Swintt for this exciting new venture, we’ll be able to combine Fine Edge Gaming’s creative concepts and in-depth knowledge of player tastes across North America and beyond with Swintt’s advanced technology and distribution solutions to ensure we deliver a first-class gaming experience to a brand-new audience.”
