Independent slots studio Thunderkick has officially launched in Ontario, partnering with renowned operators PokerStars and LeoVegas. This strategic move marks a significant step in Thunderkick's North American expansion plan.
Ontario is now a focal point for Thunderkick, joining other key markets such as Italy, Portugal, and Sweden. This launch represents the latest phase in Thunderkick’s broader North American strategy, with a series of game releases and commercial deals planned throughout 2024.
The Ontario license allows Thunderkick to collaborate with a variety of operators in the region, which has shown strong growth since its market went live in 2022.
As part of this new venture, several of Thunderkick’s acclaimed titles will soon be available to PokerStars and LeoVegas players in Ontario. The initial offering includes popular games such as 12 Bolts of Thunder, Xterminate, Midas Golden Touch 2, Beat the Beast: Dragon’s Wrath, and Midas Golden Touch Reborn, all set to be accessible within a month of the launch.
This milestone positions Thunderkick for significant growth, particularly in North America, where it recently entered the US social casino industry.
Svante Sahlström, Chief Commercial Officer at Thunderkick, commented on the launch: “Ontario is one of the most significant strategic moves for us this year, and I think we’ll look back on it as an important marker in the company’s development.
Partnering with two prominent brands in PokerStars and LeoVegas highlights our drive to deliver on our long-term strategic goals in the continent as we continue to work towards providing the ultimate player experience.”
He further added, “The market entry is the latest step in Thunderkick’s progressive worldwide expansion goals, proving that independent slots studios can operate on a global scale and develop a player base across continents by prioritizing high-quality games.”
Sahlström also emphasized the potential for growth in North America, stating, “There is a huge amount of unlocked potential in North America, and as more Canadian provinces and US states become regulated, there is a fantastic opportunity for Thunderkick to expand further.”
With this launch, Thunderkick solidifies its presence in North America and demonstrates its commitment to delivering exceptional gaming experiences across the globe.
