Entain brings a fresh twist to the online experience with innovative new game
Entain, a leading player in the global sports betting and gaming sector, has launched an innovative new game, Bingo Tournaments, through its UK brands Gala and Coral – an industry-first that brings a fresh twist on the free-to-play experience. Players can now go head-to-head for leaderboard points to claim top ranking positions and win prizes, in tournaments that start on the hour, all day, every day.
Bingo has stood the test of time and evolved into a game that takes different formats – from the local community Bingo Hall, to free-to-play mobile games. In fact, the number of UK players logging in to play Bingo with Entain’s leading brands has increased by 80% since 2021[1], and this upward trend is continuing in 2024.
What makes Bingo so popular is that it is an inherently social game. It is about players enjoying the game, experiencing little moments of excitement, and sharing these experiences with other people who love the game. Bingo Tournaments brings this community-based element to the online game for the first time – providing more ways to play, more ways for players to interact with each other, and more ways to win.
Since its launch last month, Entain’s Bingo Tournaments has already been a hit, amassing over 80,000 unique players, and with 68% of Gala Bingo players engaging with the new game. These figures are expected to grow as Entain continues to deliver even better Bingo experiences for its customers.
Satty Bhens, Chief Product & Technology Officer at Entain, said: “Everything we do comes down to making sure that we’re providing the best experiences possible for our customers – so they enjoy playing with us, and keep playing with us. Introducing a groundbreaking game and a more social way to play through Bingo Tournaments is just one way that we’re refreshing and investing in our games to deliver the best products to our customers.”

Vasista Esports rolled to a spectacular finish after a nail-biting grand finals of the iQOO Neo 10 Skyesports Championship 2025 – BGMI. The team secured the title by taking down India’s top 16 teams in the Sky Surge and Grand Finals, which took place from May 15 to 18. The Skyesports Championship is India’s longest-running homegrown esports IP, and the 2025 BGMI edition saw hundreds of teams participate in the open qualifiers for a shot at the title and a share of the INR 17.5 lakhs prize pool.
With its exciting format, long legacy, and top teams competing, the iQOO Neo 10 Skyesports Championship 2025, powered by AMD with associate partners WD_BLACK and GIGABYTE accumulated 30 million views from broadcast and 40 million through VOD views for a total 70 million viewership.
Vasista Esports have been in red-hot form throughout the tournament. After emerging on top in the Upper Bracket, the team entered the Grand Finals as one of the favorites – and they didn’t disappoint. With a dominant performance, they accumulated 169 points, 32 ahead of second-placed Autobotz Esports.
The iQOO Neo 10 Skyesports Championship 2025 featured a unique format in the Grand Finals with the introduction of the Sky Champ format—a first in the history of BGMI esports.
As part of this, May 15 featured the Sky Surge, based on which teams received bonus points for the 3-day Grand Finals from May 16 to 18. Vasista placed 14th in the Sky Surge, earning no bonus points and needing to climb the rankings from scratch.
In the Grand Finals, teams needed to reach 125 points to become Sky Champ point eligible. Once eligible, a team had to secure a WWCD (Winner Winner Chicken Dinner) to be crowned champions. This format ensured every match remained crucial, even as Vasista built a strong lead in the points table.
Ultimately, no team was able to secure a WWCD after becoming Sky Champ point eligible. As a result, Vasista Esports were crowned champions after 18 matches, based on their overall points as they remained consistent and aggressive.
A visibly emotional Sohail “Hector” Shaikh from Vasista Esports, who is also credited with building the winning lineup, said in a post-tournament interview, “A lot of people doubted me. A lot has happened in my life over the past 10 months, but I finally got the opportunity to prove myself. I’m grateful to my team. Our next target: winning the official BMPS 2025.”
The iQOO Neo 10 Skyesports Championship 2025 recorded over 100,000 peak concurrent viewers and more than 30 million total livestream views—highlighting the excitement around India’s premier homegrown esports IP.
Commenting on the tournament, Shiva Nandy, Founder and CEO, Skyesports, said, “First of all – congratulations to Hector and Vasista Esports for their dominant performance, not just in the Grand Finals, but throughout the tournament. Their resilience and high-tier performance kept us on the edge of our seats. With more than 30 million livestream views so far, it showcases the growth and attention of our premium esports property. Lastly, thanks to our partners in iQOO, AMD, Western Digital, GIGABYTE, and Red Bull for making this tournament possible.”

Fast Track has unveiled its proprietary machine learning platform, FTML, designed to drastically simplify the process of deploying AI models into live production.
FTML marks a major step forward in applying artificial intelligence within CRM, addressing the operational challenges that often slow data science teams. By automating complex processes such as data availability, data transformation, model training, deployment, and retraining, the platform enables AI models to go live exponentially faster than anything else on the market. This acceleration makes data science more agile and impactful, reducing the time and resources traditionally needed to implement AI models and allowing partners to access AI-driven insights faster.
Additionally, FTML includes a dedicated testing environment that supports continuous analysis and optimisation, ensuring models are regularly improved and kept current. This functionality positions FTML as a foundation for future AI-driven features, enabling smarter, faster, and more scalable CRM strategies for Fast Track and its partners.
“Behavioural AI models demand not only a huge degree of creativity and subject matter expertise to be developed, but they also need to be deeply contextual, tailored, and trained on each partner’s data to be truly performant. Scaling this process is extremely challenging. From data availability and quality issues, domain-specific expertise, algorithm selection, and delivering actionable outcomes, to the added complexities of information security, explainability, and continuous model monitoring,” said Simon Lidzén, Co-Founder & CEO of Fast Track.
“Traditionally, solving these problems at scale is slow and resource-intensive. However, with the IP we have just released, we have cut the time to market to a fraction of what it used to be. It solves almost all of the complexity around scalability, enabling us to move many times faster than anyone else in the market, and empowering our partners to benefit from truly personalised behavioural AI without the typical barriers.”
FTML has been in development for several years and has undergone rigorous testing and iteration through internal use. The release of the latest version marks a significant milestone in Fast Track’s vision for achieving Singularity. Now in full production, FTML operates behind the scenes to support all Fast Track partners as part of the supplier’s core infrastructure.
