Ontario, get ready! RAW Group Hits the Market Ramping Up its Distribution Scope

Provider behind SuperSlice®, SuperTracks® and SuperSymbols™ gets the nod to launch in Ontario

RAW iGaming, the studio that considers itself the pink shark in the sea of sameness, is set to blast monotony out of the market in Ontario after being given the green light to launch its games in the province for the first time.

RAW’s full suite of in-house games will debut shortly with big name operators while players are being told to strap themselves in for the thrill ride.

RAW iGaming has made a name for itself through innovative, patent-pending mechanics such as SuperSlice®, SuperTracks® and SuperSymbols™, which deliver entirely new experiences that players in Ontario will now be able to enjoy for the first time.

For example, SuperSlice uses wheels instead of reels while SuperTracks uses pathways or tracks and the positioning of symbols on those to determine wins. SuperSymbols is the latest RAW innovation and sees adjacent matching symbols combine to create bigger image pixel counts, which in simplicity means the bigger the SuperSymbol, the bigger the win potential.

Some of RAW iGaming’s exciting titles to hit lobbies in Ontario include Ave Caesar DynamicWays™, Raging Super2Ways SuperSymbols™ and the new Aztec SuperTracks™.

RAW’s entry into Ontario forms part of wider plans to make its titles available to operators in all core regulated markets across the world. The studio already holds approvals in the UK, Sweden and Malta along with more than 10 other regulated markets and a busy roll out pipeline adding more soon.

Tom Wood, CEO of RAW Group, said its studio, RAW iGaming, believes its titles will bring something entire new to the Operator sites in Ontario and will help differentiate their portfolio’s to stand out from rival brands.

“From the outset when we founded RAW in 2021, our mindset was fixed on pushing creativity, and mechanics to deliver games that excite players in ways that other slot games haven’t even thought of. Our innovative products push boundaries but still deliver experiences that players recognise and want to play – a balance that is hard to strike.

“Our partners in the market either have a fast growing or an established player-base that exemplifies our growth strategy. We are honoured to see our titles in Canadian lobbies and for players to see why we are the pink shark in the sea of sameness.”
