Expanse Studios Sets New Milestones in the American Gaming Market
Expanse Studios has successfully completed its participation in Sigma Americas 2023, the gaming industry’s most distinguished exhibition of the Western Hemisphere. The event was held in Sao Paolo from June 14 to 18 and brought together leading figures from the Latin American gaming industry – a region full of opportunities and promise.
As part of the Studio’s commitment to expanding its reach in both emerging and established markets, its presence at this influential event underscored the company’s dedication to innovation and unparalleled quality. This event served as a perfect platform to engage with affiliates, suppliers, and operators within the thriving Latin American gaming ecosystem.
The Studio That Stands Out
Since its inception in 2017, Expanse Studios has been making waves in the industry, consistently delivering outstanding products. The range of their 42 in-house RNG games – from globally popular slots like Titan Roulette, Clown Fever, and Wild Icy Fruits, to engaging table games – are all developed in HTML5 technology. This allowed them to ensure 100% mobile compatibility, catering to the ever-increasing demand for mobile gaming experiences.
A Thriving Presence in the Gaming Landscape
At the heart of Expanse Studios’ success lies a dual focus on old-school motifs and cutting-edge design, paired with high-quality soundtracks and animations. This unique approach not only resonated with the existing fan base but also caught the eye of new players across the globe.
The Opportunities at Sigma Americas 2023
Sigma Americas 2023 offered a unique chance for participants to tap into Brazil’s burgeoning iGaming market, projected to grow to around 2.6 billion over the next five years. The country’s recent strides towards legalizing both online and land-based gaming presented a golden opportunity for industry players like us. Expanse Studios was keenly looking forward to making a significant contribution to this growth, leveraging advanced and fully customizable promo tools.
During the expo, guests had the chance to experience firsthand the superior design and functionality of top games. Among them were classics like Titan Roulette and Clown Fever, along with recent releases: Pia, Zombie Apocalypse, Wild White Whale, God of Coins, and most recent releases like Pia and Spinning Buddha.
Visitors also enjoyed the thrilling excitement offered by Expanse Studios’ popular features, including Bonus buy and sticky symbols.
