Abios, part of the Kambi Group, partners with Brazilian operator Rei do Pitaco for fantasy esoccer

Abios to provide esoccer streams, probabilities and widgets to country’s leading daily fantasy sports operator, further illustrating Kambi’s modular capability
Kambi Group plc (“Kambi”) continues to build momentum behind its modularisation strategy with the announcement its esports division Abios has partnered with Rei do Pitaco (“RDP”), a leading Brazilian daily fantasy sports operator, to power its fantasy esoccer product.
Since launching in 2019 RDP has grown to become the leading DFS operator in Brazil with more than 17 million app downloads, and under the terms of the partnership will leverage Abios’ esoccer product to offer fantasy esoccer to a large customer database across the country.
Abios’ esoccer product covers more than 11,000 matches every month, and harnesses real-time data from leading rights holders and automated modelling overseen by an experienced team. It has powered esoccer across the Kambi network since November 2023, ranking consistently among the top leagues by number of bets.
This modular service agreement expands the Kambi and RDP partnership, which will see RDP leverage Kambi’s technology to expand into sports betting in Brazil upon regulation.
Anton Janér, Managing Director at Abios, said: “We are delighted to have signed this long-term partnership with Rei do Pitaco to power fantasy esoccer for millions of players across Brazil, providing 24/7 content that perfectly complements their existing DFS offer. Rei do Pitaco’s passion for providing customers with engaging, cutting-edge products mirrors our own, and we are excited to be working closely with them to deliver next generation esports experiences.”
Kiko Augusto, COO and Co-founder at Rei do Pitaco, said: “We are pleased to be expanding our relationship with the Kambi Group through this partnership with Abios. We are always looking to enhance the range of products we offer to our customers, and integrating Abios’ market-leading esoccer product is a move which makes complete sense.”

Fighting Game GOAT Justin Wong Joins BASILISK, Science’s Esports Team

BASILISK, the global esports organization built to champion science, announced the signing of legendary fighting game competitor Justin ‘Jwong’ Wong as captain of its newly formed Fighting Game Community (FGC) Division. Wong will lead BASILISK’s entry into the FGC by recruiting players, developing community events, and creating FGC – science crossover content.
“Justin isn’t just a competitive genius – he is a cultural icon and humble leader within the FGC. We are incredibly proud to have him leading our FGC division and support the amazing work he already does for the community,” said BASILISK co-founder Christopher Bothur.
A nine-time Evolution Championship Series (Evo) Champion and Guinness World Record holder, Wong brings unparalleled FGC credibility and expertise to BASILISK. His reach extends across the entire FGC fandom of millions, and he was immortalized in Evo Moment #37 which has over 100 million views.
As Captain of BASILISK FGC, Wong will leverage BASILISK’s data analytics to scout and train the next generation of FGC pros.
“Math is super important to fighting games. I’m excited to join science’s esports team. I’m passionate about finding promising players with a positive mentality and shaping them into the next big thing. I want to see somebody else in the spotlight after me and help them reach their potential. If we can discover the next world champion, that would be fantastic,” said Wong upon joining BASILISK.
The signing comes on the heels of BASILISK’s new partnerships with The Planetary Society and Caltech’s Institute for Quantum Information and Matter (IQIM), announced in July. These collaborations create a powerful bridge between renowned scientific institutions and gamers, which Wong will amplify to his millions of followers and fans.
“Justin is a dream addition to our organization. He exemplifies the dedication and analytical capacity required to be an esports champion or great scientist,” added BASILISK co-founder Hans Kassier.
Wong becomes the second “GOAT” (Greatest of All Time) to join BASILISK, alongside Finnish StarCraft 2 legend Joona “Serral” Sotala, who just captured the SC2 Esports World Cup Championship in July 2025. The signing also creates opportunities for cross-over content with BASILISK’s diverse roster, including chess Grandmaster Vincent Keymer and award-winning science communicator Kyle Hill, who brings over 2.5 million followers and a vast network of science enthusiasts to the organization.
