Blueprint Gaming Forms New Game Studio 'Lucksome'

Casino game designer Blueprint Gaming has announced that they've launched a sub-studio dubbed Lucksome, which will put out online slots.

The developer is being headed up by the likes of Bryan Upton, formerly of NetEnt, and will work to launch new titles during the second quarter of this year. This is the sixth studio that Blueprint oversees, as the company also runs Reel Time Gaming, Livewire, Merkur Gaming, Project, and Games Warehouse. Lucksome will be based out of Malta and will operate in the same markets as Blueprint.

Commenting on the launch Lucksome's Bryan Upton said, "We're very excited to unveil Lucksome to the industry and to be part of the Blueprint family. Our studio's team is highly experienced in designing great games that resonate with players in multiple regions. Coupled with the group's prolific games development technology, I'm confident we'll bring even more exciting and innovative content to Blueprint's already rich portfolio.

"Building a presence in Malta is an important move for the group and shows the strong intent we have to work more closely with operators and broaden our reach."

Blueprint's Simon Thompson also commented, noting: The Lucksome team have a strong background within the casino sector and we're delighted to welcome them to the Blueprint family.

"With another games studio joining our portfolio, our design capabilities have elevated to a new level which will provide a strong base for us to bring fresh and engaging content to the market."
