New partnership to see Asia’s leading aggregator expand with operator across Paraguay, Chile and Mexico

Zenith, Asia’s premier iGaming platform provider, has today announced a new partnership with Jugamax, one of Paraguay’s leading operator brands.

Through this new partnership, Zenith will deliver an expanded gaming experience to Jugamax’s players across LatAm via ONEAPI, its award-winning game aggregation platform.

Zenith’s latest deal is expected to be the first of many in LatAm with 2025, with Asia’s leading aggregator already delivering its services to 500 global operators and over 50 million players.

This collaboration will provide Jugamax with seamless access to more than 10,000 top-quality game titles from 150 studios across the operator’s key markets including Chile, Mexico and Paraguay.

Through Zenith’s single, easy-to-integrate solution, Jugamax can now tap into a world-class library of slots, live casino and instant games, each designed to drive both engagement and retention – empowering Jugamax to scale rapidly as it continues its expansion across LatAm.

Jugamax’s integration with ONEAPI will also enable the operator to benefit from faster onboarding, dedicated technical support and access to exclusive rates for leading studios.

This partnership reflects Zenith’s ongoing commitment to providing operators with scalable, efficient and high-performing solutions tailored to the unique intricacies of markets across the LatAm region.

Commenting on the new partnership, Karina Moral, Senior Business Development Manager at Zenith, said: “Partnering with Jugamax marks an exciting step in Zenith’s expansion across LatAm. Their local expertise combined with our powerful aggregation platform will create new opportunities for growth, innovation, and player engagement in Paraguay, Chile and México.

MGM Yonkers Inc., a subsidiary of MGM Resorts International, submitted its commercial casino license application to the New York Gaming Commission and the Gaming Facility Location Board, with a $2.3 billion proposal to transform its historic Empire City Casino site into a commercial casino and entertainment destination. The development plans have been thoughtfully curated to achieve the maximum benefits for the State of New York, City of Yonkers and surrounding counties, while also meeting the needs of the local community.

MGM Yonkers’ plans include the full renovation and expansion of Empire City Casino’s existing gaming areas, an expansive high-limit lounge and the addition of a state-of-the-art BetMGM Sportsbook offering retail sports betting. The plan also envisions the addition of a 5000 person maximum capacity entertainment venue and accompanying meeting space which will welcome a variety of A-list and local performances with the design flexibility to accommodate special events, local graduations, and other community needs.

Additionally, three new full-service restaurants and the renovation of existing food and beverage venues will provide high-concept dining options for guests. A parking garage with solar energy arrays and electric vehicle parking spaces are among features that demonstrate MGM Resorts’ strong commitment to sustainability. If MGM Yonkers is awarded a commercial casino license, it anticipates completing all project elements by mid-2029.

“Empire City Casino and Yonkers Raceway have anchored the entertainment and tourism culture in downstate New York for more than a century. Achieving a full casino license will ensure this site will continue to be a cultural and economic force for generations to come,” said Bill Hornbuckle, President and CEO of MGM Resorts International.

Caesars Entertainment Inc. announced the launch of its second proprietary online casino table game, Signature Blackjack Surrender, which is now live across Caesars’ marquee online casino platforms, Caesars Palace Online Casino, Caesars Sportsbook & Casino and Horseshoe Online Casino in New Jersey.

“Every detail in Signature Blackjack Surrender has been carefully crafted to deliver the look, feel, and energy of a live blackjack table. We’re proud to follow up our multihand product with a singlehand version that’s equally refined, intuitive, and brand aligned. This is the next step in building a robust library of Caesars-exclusive games that players can’t find anywhere else,” said Scott Krell, Senior Director of Game Products & Head of Studio at Caesars Digital.

Signature Blackjack Surrender retains the same exciting and innovative features found in Empire Creative’s first release, Caesars Palace Signature Multihand Blackjack Surrender, including:

• Ambidextrous Game Modes – Left and right-handed modes where all players can enjoy a comfortable and ergonomic gaming experience regardless of their dominant hand.

• Brand-Aligned Design – Player-selectable table felts combined with the iconic Caesars Palace laurel wreath.
