Yggdrasil games live in Czech Republic

Innovative gaming supplier goes live with the country’s largest operator

Yggdrasil, the innovative gaming solutions provider, has gone live with its locally certified games portfolio with leading Czech Republic operator Tipsport.

The launch marks Yggdrasil’s debut in the market, which introduced a new Gambling Act in 2017, regulating online gaming.

Tipsport’s customers can now enjoy Yggdrasil titles, including Luca Maniacs and Valley of the Gods as well as the hugely popular Vikings trilogy.

The operator will also be able to use Yggdrasil’s unique in-game promotional tool BOOST® that enhances player experience via in-game tournaments, prize drops and missions.

By launching its games in the Czech Republic, Yggdrasil further expands its footprint in regulated European markets.

Fredrik Elmqvist, CEO at Yggdrasil, said: “Going live with Tipsport is another important milestone for us as we continue to implement our growing regulated markets strategy.

“As the country’s largest operator, Tipsport is the perfect partner for us and we are looking forward to working together.”

Jiří Švarc, Online Casino Director at Tipsport, said: “Adding Yggdrasil’s games to our expanding offering is very exciting, and we are confident our customers will enjoy the engaging and immersive content they provide.”

The Czech gambling market is predicted to have generated gross win of €1.6bn in 2018, of which online is expected to represent €490m, according to H2 Gambling Capital.
