Design Works Gaming (DWG), a leading developer of online casino games, is thrilled to announce its highly anticipated launch on Caesars Palace Online Casino and Caesars Sportsbook & Casino in Ontario.

This marks a significant milestone for DWG as it expands into the thriving Canadian market, with Caesars Digital serving as the company’s pilot partner in this new venture.

This launch comes on the heels of DWG and Caesars Digital’s launch in Pennsylvania last month and builds upon their combined success in New Jersey and Michigan. This expansion is part of DWG’s broader strategy to drive global growth and establish its presence in regulated markets worldwide.

“Launching in Ontario has been a moment we’ve eagerly awaited at DWG, and we could not have asked for a better partner than Caesars Digital to make it a reality,” said founder and CEO of Design Works Gaming Troy Zurawski. “Working with the entire Caesars Digital team has been an amazing experience. We’re honored that they’ve entrusted us with the opportunity to build custom games with the iconic Caesars brand, and Caesars Digital shares our passion for producing the best online casino products on the market.”

Vice President of Online Gaming at Caesars Digital Ricardo Cornejo Rivas added: “Partnering with DWG has brought exciting new content to our online casino players in New Jersey, Michigan, Pennsylvania and now Ontario. From custom Caesars-branded games to classic favorites, we’re glad to bring more content to our gaming catalog that can provide an elevated and enjoyable experience to our players.”

Ontario represents a significant opportunity for DWG, as it was the first Canadian region to launch regulated online gaming. By the end of 2023, the province boasted over 1.2 million active player accounts, a number that continues to grow steadily. DWG’s entry into this market is timely and positions the company to capitalize on the increasing demand for innovative and engaging online casino content.

This launch is just the beginning of DWG’s journey in Canada and marks a new era of expansion for the company.
