Bragg Gaming to Bring King Show Games Land-Based Slots to Online Players in the U.S.

Bragg Gaming Group announced the launch of King Show Games (KSG) content distributed via Bragg Gaming technology in the U.S. market, bringing a host of games previously only accessible to land-based casino players into the online space.
The first games distributed in the U.S. during the first quarter of 2024 include titles well-known and already enjoyed by U.S. players such as Stinkinâ Rich⢠, Lucky Larryâs Lobstermania⢠, Phone Tagâ˘Â and Wedding Party⢠, with other titles set to follow.
Some of these titles are no longer available to land-based players, presenting a unique opportunity for KSG to both capitalize on feelings of affinity and nostalgia among players for these games and the expansion of online gaming in the U.S.
With a 25-year history of producing slots for the U.S. land-based casino market, KSG is well placed to deliver a truly omnichannel experience to players as its slots catalog transitions online with Bragg Gaming.
All content is supplied via the Bragg Remote Game Server (RGS), which is licensed, certified and approved to deliver casino and slots-based games across more than 25 regulated gaming markets in North America, Europe and globally.
Games on Braggâs RGS are distributed via the Bragg HUB content delivery platform and is also seamlessly integrated into the recently upgraded Bragg Player Account Management (PAM) igaming platform (including full managed services) for online casino, sportsbook, lottery and omnichannel operations.
These game releases will also automatically have promotional tools provided within Braggâs Fuze⢠marketing technology included, tools which increase user engagement by enabling automated, real-time in-game gamification, conversion and retention mechanisms.
Bragg is swiftly becoming the go-to-content supplier to the land-based casino industry in the U.S. with many heritage land-based casino games now available online via Braggâs RGS technology.
As an international supplier of iGaming content, Bragg Gaming offers casino content from in-house studios as well as multiple studio partners building and releasing games exclusively distributed by Bragg, while its constantly updated aggregation product boasts over 9,000 titles.
Bragg already counts prominent U.S. land-based games developers such as Bluberi, Incredible Technologies, and Sega Sammy Creation as clients, while its Wild Streak Gaming and Atomic Slots Lab proprietary studios also bring unique titles with a land-based heritage to the online world.
This forms a key part of Braggâs strategic aim of becoming a leading slots developer and distributor in the USA and Canadian markets.
Doug Fallon, Bragg Group Director of Content and Founder, Wild Streak Gaming commented: âKing Show Games is a proven provider of slot content to land-based operators in the U.S. and builds on our strategic aim of further expansion into the jurisdiction with top quality content. Weâre excited to partner with King Show Games and bring these well-loved land-based games to customers online.â
Bradley Berman, King Show Games President commented: âWeâre thrilled to bring back these slot titles to players in our home market of the U.S. for the first time with Bragg online. Iâm excited to see how they will be received by our customers and looking forward to the launch of further titles in the pipeline.â
Known primarily in the land-based casino market, KSG also offers social casino content to players in the U.S. and Canada.
