BETBY BOOSTS E-SIM GAME PORTFOLIO WITH TWO NEW eSOCCER TITLES, MERGING REALISM AND RAPID PLAY
BETBY, the innovative sportsbook supplier, has expanded its Betby.Games portfolio with the launch of two brand-new eSoccer titles: X-Battle FC and a new e-sim built on the globally renowned football franchise, PES. These additions reinforce BETBY’s commitment to delivering engaging, high-frequency content tailored to the iGaming audience, while serving distinct purposes within its wider esports strategy.
The first release, X-Battle FC, is designed for speed and simplicity, continuing BETBY’s sub-1-minute Blitz game series. The current tournament lineup includes the AFC Asian Cup, Copa América, Euro, and the World Cup. With over 60,000 matches generated per month, X-Battle FC significantly boosts the volume and instant-play appeal of BETBY’s proprietary esports content.
Meanwhile, BETBY has also launched a new eSoccer title fully optimized for the 2025 season. This release is focused on enhancing the depth and realism of BETBY’s eSoccer vertical, featuring immersive visuals, enriched match data, and updated team rosters. It debuts with a curated lineup of tournaments, including the FIFA Club World Cup, Brasileirão Série B, the Chinese Super League, Colombia’s Liga, Argentina’s Primera División, and Russia’s Premier League.
Additional leagues will be introduced as part of a phased rollout, with plans to launch over 35 new tournaments within the next three months. This expansion will include not only top-tier competitions such as the English Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, and Ligue 1, but also lesser-known national championships from countries including Greece, Scotland, Belgium, and Saudi Arabia. The game’s betting offer will also continue to evolve, with a strong emphasis on stat-driven markets designed to foster analytical play and long-term engagement.
Together, these two launches further evolve the Betby.Games ecosystem, which now comprises 19 proprietary titles, over 70 tournaments, more than 350 betting markets, and 400,000 live matches per month. By combining fast-paced gameplay with data-rich, immersive simulations, BETBY continues to deliver tailored experiences that support both entertainment and operational performance, giving operators the tools to reach a broader player base and drive retention.
Commenting on the launches, Kirill Nekrasov, Head of Sportsbook Product at BETBY, said: “With the release of new titles in our eSoccer offering, we are significantly expanding opportunities for our operators. By following a localized approach, we focus on delivering the right content for each market. In addition, we continue to enhance our platform’s stability with every release. Stability and product quality are among our core values, and they represent a standard our competitors will never be able to replicate.”

WhichBingo.co.uk has just published its 2025 Bingo Players Survey, offering a clear window into how UK bingo players are evolving, both in terms of spending and experience preferences.
Despite economic pressures, the data shows that bingo continues to occupy a resilient niche in the broader gambling ecosystem, especially as players become more value-conscious and hybrid in their play habits. Here are a few key industry-facing insights:
- Average monthly player spend is now £15.77 down sharply from £35.25 in 2023, highlighting a pivot toward budget-friendly engagement and lower-stake recreational play.
- 70.79% of players report playing as much or more than last year, suggesting continued demand despite tightened wallets.
- 44.67% of players now split their time between online and in-person bingo, underscoring the increasing appeal of hybrid play models and opportunities for cross-channel loyalty.
- Millennials now make up nearly 46% of the UK bingo-playing audience, while Gen Z participation is steadily growing, indicating that platform design, tone, and features must evolve to suit younger consumer expectations.
- “Increasingly we are seeing groups of players attending Bingo Clubs representing up to three generations, grandchildren, parents, and grandparents!” Bingo Association Chief Executive Miles Baron said.
- Players cite a preference for brands offering value promotions, flexible payment options, and socially engaging formats, with digital convenience and real-world community experiences both playing pivotal roles.
The full survey results dig deeper into:
- Brand trust signals and social media perceptions
- Preferred game types and device usage
- Emerging attitudes on AI-driven features, sustainability, and call culture
Comments from WhichBingo’s new Managing Editor: “As AI becomes more ingrained in daily life, from ChatGPT to driverless cars, the bingo world will need to adapt too. I believe bingo chat rooms and immersive experiences will grow in value, especially as people seek out the kind of community that bingo naturally fosters.”
“We also recognise that only 61.1% of players currently find comparison sites very valuable. That’s why we’re evolving WhichBingo, starting with changes to our rating system and key user tools to provide clearer, more personalised, and trustworthy guidance for modern players.”

Online casino comparison site launches debut white paper with contributions from Big Time Gaming, SPRIBE and Gaming Corps
Comparasino has launched its first industry report, Meet The Game Changers – A Comparasino White Paper.
The white paper goes behind the scenes at three of the most pioneering studios the industry has ever seen to learn more about how they brought their breakthrough products to market.
Contributors include:
· Nik Robinson – Founder and CEO of Big Time Gaming
· David Natroshvili – Founder and Managing Partner of SPRIBE
· Alex Lorimer – Chief Operating Officer at Gaming Corps
Key sections include:
Genesis – learn about where the ideas for Megaways, Aviator and Smash4Cash came from.
The long haul – no one said changing the game was easy. This is how they did it.
Instant success or a slow burn – did the game changers find success early, or did it take a while?
An appetite for risk – find out if risk is inherent to innovation and how to mitigate potential downsides.
The difficult second album – how have these studios approached the “what next” question?
A lasting legacy – how do the game changers perceive their innovations and the impact they have had?
Over to you – get actionable advice from the game changers as to how you can bring the next Hall of Famer product to market.
Standout quotes from the white paper include:
“Look, if you’re not willing to roll the dice, you’re not playing the game. Megaways™ was a high-stakes gamble, and we knew it. This wasn’t a tweak or a slight deviation from a proven blueprint; Megaways™ was full-scale disruption.” Nik Robinson – Founder, Big Time Gaming
“There were moments we doubted it, especially when some partners told us it was ‘too different’ for casino players. But we believed in the mechanic. We also knew the market was evolving, and we had to evolve with it.” David Natroshvili – Founder and Managing Partner, SPRIBE
“With arcade games, the development costs are far cheaper and, generally speaking, the lifecycle far longer than slots, so it wasn’t really a huge financial hole to go down. It was always going to be produced once we started, especially after the customer feedback received during the concept phase.” Alex Lorimer – Chief Operating Officer, Gaming Corps
Meet The Game Changers has been written by Comparasino, the online casino comparison site for players in the UK.
Comparasino Co-founder and MD, Martyn Hannah, said: “This is our debut white paper, and it covers a thrilling topic with contributions from some of the biggest names in the industry.
“To speak directly to the likes of Nik Robinson, David Natroshvili and Alex Lorimer is a unique opportunity and one that we are grateful to have had.
“Meet the Game Changers – A Comparasino White Paper brings genuine value to those who read it, whether you are a studio working on your own breakthrough product or simply interested to learn more about the businesses and people that have shaped the industry in recent years.
“I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I have enjoyed writing it.”
