Yggdrasil and Svenska Spel in Game Supply Deal

Internet betting group Svenska Spel has announced that they've inked a software deal with Yggdrasil Gaming and will begin offering the group's digital slot machines on their site as a result.

Svenska Spel is the largest betting operator in Sweden, having had a foot in the door with the restricted market. Things will be changing come January 1st, when the Swedish market will open up to outside operators. Moves like this will help keep Svenska competitive with other operators, as it bolster the group's library. Yggdrasil has really popped in the past year or so, with a bunch of new games that are very high quality. The games are working on being integrated and will be made available soon on desktop and mobile devices.

Commenting on the agreement Svenska Spel Managing Director Fredrik Wastenson said, "Yggdrasil was an obvious choice when selecting a casino gaming solutions partner. The innovative offering performs well in regulated markets and we are confident they will attract a large following in Sweden."

Yggdrasil's Fredrik Elmqvist added: "We're really happy to have agreed terms with Svenska Spel ahead of the Swedish market regulating next year." "Our strategy to expand our regulated market footprint is ahead of schedule and demand from operators across a wide variety of regulated and newly regulating markets is rapidly growing. We will be ready to go well ahead of the January 2019 launch date."
