Greentube expands European reach with bet365 launch in Spain

The NOVOMATIC Digital Gaming and Entertainment division, Greentube, has strengthened its European footprint through a new partnership with bet365 in Spain, bringing a selection of its most iconic titles to one of the world’s leading operators.

The integration provides bet365’s Spanish customers with access to a wide range of Greentube’s proven casino content. Among the line-up are local favourites such as Book of Ra™, Lucky Lady’s Charm™, and Sizzling Hot™, which continue to perform strongly across the market, alongside a broader portfolio of engaging and top-performing slots.

The launch strengthens Greentube’s position in Spain, where its classic titles are already well established, and reinforces the supplier’s long-standing relation s hip with bet365 following successful rollouts in multiple international markets.

David Bolas, Commercial Director at Greentube, said: “We are pleased to be launching in another territory with bet365, one of our key partners. This further strengthens and expands our relationship with one of the biggest global brands in the sector. We’re confident that bet365 players in Spain will recognise Greentube as a premium slot supplier, helping us to consolidate our position in the country and across the wider European market.”

Spokesperson at bet365, added: “Greentube content is recognised for its quality and strong player engagement, and its addition further elevates our portfolio in Spain. Incorporating these classic NOVOMATIC titles alongside Greentube’s wider range of premium slots supports our ongoing commitment to offering players the most compelling and diverse gaming experience.”

With blazing graphics, immersive audio, and a backdrop of drifting desert clouds, Egypt Power x1000 channels the energy of ancient Pharaohs into every spin. The Cascading Reels mechanic keeps the excitement flowing, as every winning combination triggers a chain reaction of multiple wins in a single spin.

Players who land four or more Scatter symbols trigger the Free Spin mode, where every Multiplier from a winning spin contributes to a Total Multiplier that builds throughout the feature.

To elevate gameplay, the Bonus Shop allows players to purchase direct access to four types of Free Spins, including the Epic Free Spins, where the Total Multiplier starts at 100x. Additionally, four powerful Spin Boosters are available, such as Epic Multi Hunt Booster, which guarantees a minimum multiplier of x100 on every extra-bet spin.

Combining crisp visuals, dynamic bonus mechanics, and immense win potential, Egypt Power x1000 offers players a pharaonic adventure, reaffirming 3 Oaks Gaming’s commitment to delivering premium, feature-rich slot experiences for global markets.

Yuriy Muratov, Chief Commercial Officer at 3 Oaks Gaming said: “Egypt Power x1000 captures the spirit of ancient Egypt, blending cascading mechanics and massive multipliers for a high-energy experience. With its Bonus Shop and the chance to unleash wins of up to 40,000x, it is a game built to excite and reward players.”

The Snowman is a Wild symbol. When it lands on any of the three reels, it expands and triggers a single respin. During the respin, seven win lines transform into twenty-seven ways to win, piling up prizes like Christmas presents. When all three reels are fully stacked with the same symbol, the total win is multiplied by ten, creating a snowstorm of rewards.

Players can also activate the Respin Booster, which increases their total bet by 1.5x and boosts the chance of triggering a respin by 300%. The feature remains active until manually switched off, giving players full control over their gameplay.

For those feeling extra lucky, the Star Gamble Ladder appears after every base game win, allowing them to gamble their winnings by guessing the next star’s colour – pink or blue. Each correct guess doubles the prize and pushes the player up one level. The Golden Star can randomly appear at levels two to five to double the win instantly, no guess required.

“Santa Yeti brings together everything players love about Tom Horn games – fun, engaging mechanics, and a great story to match. It’s festive, it’s fresh, and it’s packed with features that keep the excitement rolling. We wanted to end the year on a high note, and Santa Yetti does exactly that with humour, charm, and plenty of win potential,” said Ondrej Lapides, CEO at Tom Horn Gaming.

Blending simple yet fast-paced gameplay with dynamic mechanics, Santa Yetti offers short, mobile-optimised sessions that are sure to delight both casual spinners and seasoned players. Its engaging format and rewarding features make it a perfect choice for operators looking to boost engagement during the high-traffic festive season. With its playful theme, quirky light-hearted style, and generous win potential, Santa Yetti is set to make this Christmas truly santastic.

Good Morning. Patience pays off. The Grand Ho Tram has been calmly waiting and biding its time for Vietnam to shift its policy towards locals gaming. And now its time has come. The new 5-year allowance enables the property to tap into the highly lucrative Ho Chi Minh market, boosting revenue to further the build-out of the IR. Looking at Macau, the ‘concert economy’ is helping boost operators’ income in premium mass, while also improving market share. And looking to Malaysia and beyond, Genting saw a strong third quarter, with revenue improvements, despite a strong slide in profit.

Locals gambling allowance huge boost for Ho Tram

Vietnam’s move to further liberalize its gaming industry by allowing locals to gamble at The Grand Ho Tram is a huge win for the operator. The move wasn’t totally unexpected, as the group’s new ownership and management had been pushing to fulfill promises that first earned it its table and machine gaming allowance. If it wisely chooses to divert funds from its new revenue source towards further build-out, the group could even double its allocation, further tapping the lucrative Ho Chi Minh market.

The group notes that its leisure and hospitality business in Malaysia – Resorts World Genting (RWG)– saw a 19 percent increase in revenue, to RM1.99 billion ($481.6 million), ‘mainly driven by higher overall business volumes in the gaming segment at RWG’. This caused adjusted EBITDA for the segment to rise by some 27 percent, to RM627.4 million ($151.84 million).

According to results from the group’s parent company Genting Berhad, Resorts World Sentosa, in Singapore, saw 13 percent revenue growth in 3Q25, rising to nearly RM2.14 billion ($517.9 million), with EBITDA up by 35 percent yearly, to RM759.4 million ($183.8 million). The group notes that ‘the uplift was driven by improved VIP rolling volume and win rate, and continued growth across non-gaming business’.

Looking to the US, the results for Resorts World Las Vegas ‘were impacted by lower visitation as well as macroeconomic uncertainty’. Overall results from the US and Bahamas saw a 64 percent increase in revenue, to RM774.3 million ($187.4 million), ‘mainly attributable to the consolidation of Empire Resorts […] from June 2025, which added RM332.8 million ($80.54 million) in revenue’. The group notes that this contributed to a 22 percent increase in adjusted EBITDA, to RM151.2 million ($36.6 million), for the quarter.

Looking ahead, the group notes that in Malaysia it will ‘capitalize on Visit Malaysia Year 2026 to drive visitation to Resorts World Genting’. The group is planning to roll out its latest ecotourism attraction – set to be ready ‘next year’.

In Singapore, the group notes that it’s ‘transformation will continue to be anchored on resilient fundamentals, disciplined execution and a keen focus on sustainability’. The group recently debuted its Oceanarium and launched The Laurus – Singapore’s first The Luxury Collection all-suite hotel.

MIBR’s VALORANT roster currently includes players from the United States and Brazil. Over the past few years, the team has been a regular competitor in VCT Americas, and in 2025 they qualified for VALORANT Masters Toronto — the only Latin American team to do so. Later that year, MIBR also earned a spot at VALORANT Champions 2025, finishing in the Top 5 worldwide.

Beyond their esports success, MIBR continues to expand its media presence through collaborations with leading Brazilian influencers such as Sacy, producing original entertainment content, and hosting watch parties during major tournaments — all helping the organization remain one of the most talked-about and fan-favorite names on the regional scene.

Among the team’s stars is Erick ‘Aspas’ Santos, widely regarded as a VALORANT legend in Latin America. In 2025, he set the VCT Americas record for the most kills in a BO3 series and became the first player in VALORANT Champions history to surpass 1,000 eliminations across tournaments (2022–2024). Outside of competition, Aspas is a three-time Prêmio eSports Brasil “Athlete of the Year” winner and a massive fan favorite — during VCT Americas 2024 Kickoff, he became the most-mentioned player on Twitch chats, with over 11,300 mentions.

Simon Westbury, 1XBET — _{Simon Westbury}

1xBet is one of the most recognized brands in esports betting, regularly supporting major global tournaments and sponsoring top-tier teams around the world.

Simon Westbury, Strategic Advisor at 1xBet, said: “This is a historic step for 1xBet — becoming the first official betting partner of an esports team within the Riot Games ecosystem. MIBR features some of the most talented and visible players in Latin America, and together we aim to strengthen VALORANT’s presence across the LatAm region, elevate its appeal internationally, and deliver a unique fan experience for audiences around the globe.”

Raphael Castanheira, MIBR’s Director of Marketing and Partnerships, added: “Being the first organization in the entire Riot ecosystem to obtain approval for a betting sponsorship is a direct result of how MIBR operates today, as an organized company with robust governance, clear processes, and protected by policies that put competitive integrity at the forefront. ”

DigiPlus Interactive Corp. (DigiPlus), the pioneer and leading digital entertainment provider behind BingoPlus, ArenaPlus, and GameZone, announced a strategic partnership with Pay&Go, one of the leading providers of self-service payment kiosks in the country, to expand secure and convenient wallet-loading options for its players.

Through this new payments partnership, DigiPlus and Pay&Go, the self-service payment kiosks operated by BTI Payment Philippines, a subsidiary of Australia-based Banktech, will enable users to fund their e-wallets with utmost ease by way of its growing network of 3,500 self-service kiosks. With a cash-out feature also being eyed early next year, this collaboration kicks off with BingoPlus and will expand soon to ArenaPlus and GameZone.

“Our commitment at DigiPlus has always been to deliver digital entertainment that is engaging, trustworthy, and service-oriented. Achieving that requires strong partnerships with organizations that share our commitment to customer trust and service excellence,” said Jasper Vicencio, President of AB Leisure Exponent, Inc. and Total Gamezone Xtreme, Inc., subsidiaries of DigiPlus. “This partnership with Pay&Go is grounded in innovation, accessibility, and a shared mission to serve more Filipinos through secure and convenient payment touchpoints. This means more access, more convenience, and more ways for our community to enjoy the DigiPlus experience wherever they are.”

Formally signed on November 26, this partnership agreement was led by Vicencio together with Danilo Ibarra, CEO of BTI Payments Philippines, and its COO Mariel Medina, pairing the former’s growing digital ecosystem with the latter’s operational expertise.

“We are excited to support DigiPlus with Pay&Go’s nationwide footprint. Together, we’re making trusted payment access available to more BingoPlus players across the country, and soon with ArenaPlus and GameZone,” added Danilo Ibarra. “DigiPlus sets a high bar on player trust, and Pay&Go is determined to meet it.”

DigiPlus partners only with payment channels certified by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas in accordance with the requirements set by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR). In partnering with BTI Payments, a certified Operator for Payment System (OPS) and Independent ATM Deployer (IAD) whose breadth of experience spans over 25 years, the gaming company taps into decades of expertise in transaction processing and payment device management.

The Pay&Go partnership expands DigiPlus’ player support network, adding to 24/7 in-house service, 130 BingoPlus stores, multiple payment channels, and wallet protection — underscoring its commitment to safe, reliable entertainment in the Philippines.

GR8 Tech has expanded the virtual sports lineup within its ULTIM8 Sportsbook with a new range of virtual basketball, continuing a year of investment in the category that has already seen the addition of virtual horse racing and virtual cricket roulette—a unique format blending casino mechanics with the sport of cricket.

The expansion builds on GR8 Tech’s established strength in cricket, where the company developed one of the industry’s most comprehensive betting lines. Virtual cricket was designed to fill gaps between real-world tournaments, giving operators a way to maintain player engagement year-round—a model now being applied to basketball for markets where the sport dominates.

This content independence stems directly from GR8 Tech’s in-house trading capabilities.

“One of the things that GR8 Tech stands out for is the quality of the trading and the fact that we perform extremely well in very difficult environments, like Asia,” said Dinos Doxiadis, Head of Sportsbook Business at GR8 Tech. “Even our clients’ players in these challenging markets don’t behave like typical players in ‘easier’ regions such as Latin America, we still manage to achieve some of the highest margins there.”

That trading foundation enables GR8 Tech to build and localize content for specific markets rather than relying solely on third-party providers.

“We already have a very strong sportsbook, and now we’re scaling our processes and output capabilities to take it even further…We’re improving the product and creating the conditions to localize very quickly and offer a truly localized experience across the world.”

GR8 Tech is also investing in infrastructure to give operators greater control over how they deploy this content.

“The goal is to put even more power into the hands of our operators so they can tailor the product exactly as they want. As we move forward with new data and content agreements, they’ll gain an even greater ability to adapt the sportsbook to their specific needs—on top of what they can already do today.”

Personalization is central to that roadmap. “We have delivered quite a few recommendation models, and right now we can serve custom content on a user level, and we will continue working in this direction,” added Doxiadis. “We have a very good infrastructure and baseline to invest in.”

Singapore raised its 2025 economic growth forecast after a strong revival in tourism and rising hotel demand helped power a better-than-expected third quarter, with international visitor arrivals and tourism receipts now close to or above pre-pandemic levels, the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI) said.

Tourism, which contributes about 6 percent of Singapore’s services exports, continued its robust rebound this year. Tourism receipts climbed 5.3 percent year-on-year to SGD15.7 billion ($12.1 billion) in the first half of 2025, following a full-year total of SGD29.8 billion ($22.9 billion) in 2024—7.6 percent above 2019 levels.

Spending on food and beverage, entertainment, gaming and accommodation all grew strongly, supported by a packed calendar of concerts and major events.

International visitor arrivals reached 12.9 million in the first nine months of 2025, up 2.3 percent year-on-year, recovering to nearly 90 percent of 2019 levels. Growth was driven by key markets including Australia, India, mainland China and Malaysia.

The accommodation sector expanded 4.9 percent in the third quarter as hotel lettings rose across segments, led by luxury properties, while air travel through Changi Airport continued to increase.

Singapore is home to two integrated resorts: Marina Bay Sands (MBS) and Resorts World Sentosa (RWS), the only licensed casinos in the country, forming a controlled duopoly.

The tourism momentum helped lift overall GDP by 4.2 percent in the third quarter, prompting the government to upgrade its 2025 growth forecast from 1.5–2.5 percent to ‘around 4 percent’. Quarter-on-quarter, the economy expanded 2.4 percent.

Manufacturing remained the other major driver, with the electronics cluster boosted by strong global demand for AI-related semiconductors, servers and components. Biomedical manufacturing, wholesale trade and finance also posted firm growth as global and regional activity stayed resilient.

The MTI noted that the recovery in tourism mirrored broader regional trends, with Asia-Pacific arrivals reaching about 90 percent of 2019 levels in 2024. Singapore has maintained a roughly 6 percent share of visitor flows among major regional destinations.

The ministry cautioned, however, that global uncertainty, a strong Singapore dollar and intensified competition from visa-liberalizing destinations could weigh on visitor numbers in the near term.

For 2025, the Singapore Tourism Board projects between 17 million and 18.5 million arrivals and tourism receipts of SGD29–30.5 billion ($22.3–23.5 billion).

Looking ahead to 2026, MTI expects GDP growth to ease to 1–3 percent as tariff pressures in major economies become more pronounced and export momentum softens.

Tourism remains a long-term bright spot, with Singapore’s “Tourism 2040” roadmap targeting up to SGD50 billion ($38.5 billion) in annual tourism receipts by enhancing major events, lifestyle offerings and business travel.
