1X2 Network Integrates its Games with Golden Palace
1X2 Network has integrated the games from its 1X2gaming and Iron Dog Studio subsidiaries with popular online casino brand Golden Palace.
Following the integration, players at Golden Palace will be able to access blockbuster slots such as Pirate Kingdom Megaways and Battle Maidens, and classic titles such as Neon Jungle and Blood Queen.
The partnership will also see Golden Palace launch a Branded Megaways slot using Iron Dog Studio’s innovative concept to offer its players a unique Megaways title that has been customised and tailored to align with its own look, feel and branding.
Kevin Reid, Chief Commercial Officer at 1X2 Network, said: “We are delighted to add Golden Palace to our growing roster of big-name casino partners and for its players to enjoy the hugely entertaining experience our slots and table games have to offer.
“This includes our most recent titles such as Battle Maidens: Cleopatra and 1 Million Megaways BC as well as some of our longstanding player favourites like Blood Queen and Neon Jungle. Of course, the jewel in the crown is undoubtedly Branded Megaways.”
Glenn De Cuyper, Product Lead at Golden Palace, said: “At Golden Palace we are always listening to our players and what they want. The fact that many players have requested games from 1X2 Network and its brands was more than enough for us to partner with the developer.
“Making its full suite of games available to our players was a must, but the added bonus of being able to launch our own Branded Megaways slot makes this one of our more important and valuable partnerships to date.
“We look forward to seeing our players enjoy the depth and quality the 1X2 Network portfolio offers as well as their response to our very own Megaways slot.”

The 8th AskGamblers Awards Officially Enters the Voting Stage

AskGamblers has announced that the final voting stage of the 8th annual AskGamblers Awards has started.
The voting phase kicked off on 28 April, and will last until the award ceremony scheduled for 12 June.
As in previous editions of the Awards, players can cast their votes for one of the top 10 finalists in the following categories: Best Casino, Best New Casino, Best Sportsbook, Best New Slot and Best Software Provider.
The Best Crypto Casino, Best Partner and Best Manager categories will traditionally be chosen by the AskGamblers team. This year’s edition introduces a new category, the Superstar Award, a crown achievement handed out to one operator that best represents the values of brands, whose laureate will also be chosen solely by AskGamblers.
Another novelty in this year’s Awards cycle is the Forum vote: the votes from the members of AskGamblers Forum will be counted towards the final tally of votes as a separate voting tier.
Commenting on the launch of the 8th AskGamblers Awards voting stage, Dijana Radunović, General Manager at AskGamblers, said: “Now that we have the finalists, we are entering the final stages of preparation for our biggest night of the year. To say that we are excited about the 8th edition of the AskGamblers Award would be an understatement.”
“As everybody in the team is working tirelessly to make the gala ceremony a night to remember, we invite our players to do their bidding: to give a vote to their favourite contestants and help us choose the rightful winners in the five categories that are open to public vote,” Radunović added.
Before the award ceremony on 12 June, AskGamblers will host the traditional Charity Night on 11 June, where the partners will bid for positions on the website, with the money raised allocated to a humanitarian cause.
