Red Desert Games content developed by leading industry veterans set to further add to Light & Wonder’s innovative offering.

Red Desert Games launches its new and innovative slot content via the Light & Wonder content marketplace, through the Light & Wonder™ Spark studio partner program.

Red Desert Games is an emerging slot studio founded by land-based and iGaming industry veterans. The young studio team members have over 100 years combined experience in the global slot industry and are now applying their substantial knowledge, experience, and deep passion for slots to create innovative and engaging content to delight and excite.

As part of this new agreement, iGaming content developed by Red Desert Games will be distributed exclusively across Canada and the USA to Light & Wonder’s extensive operator network and elsewhere around in other key regulated markets via Light & Wonder’s Infinity aggregation platform.

The addition of Red Desert Games to the Light & Wonder™ Spark studio partner program’s roster of premium game studios further cements Light & Wonder as one of the world’s leading content marketplaces. It demonstrates once again Light & Wonder’s ongoing commitment to diversifying its content offering, as well as providing an opportunity for independent studios to significantly boost their international reach.

Edgar Pau, Co-Founder of Red Desert Games said: “We are extremely excited to be selected by Light & Wonder to join their partnership program. Light & Wonder has an unrivalled footprint and is the perfect fit to distribute our range of innovative and engaging games to its global network.”

“We have been extremely impressed by the whole Light & Wonder team and our interactions to-date. Their product feedback, enthusiasm to work with us and recognition of the uniqueness of our content has given us encouragement that they are the right partner to launch us into the global market.”

Steve Mayes, Senior Director of Partners at Light & Wonder, added: We are delighted to welcome Red Desert to the Light & Wonder™ Spark studio partner program. Our program is committed to collaborating with the most forward-thinking and innovative new studios, and Red Desert’s distinctive game concepts, inventive mechanics, and meticulously crafted, visually captivating titles truly embody these values.
