Gaming Corps has received a license from the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), enabling the Swedish-listed game development company to distribute its content within one of North America’s largest regulated igaming markets.
Following the approval, Gaming Corps has secured agreements with several Ontario-licensed operators and is preparing a phased rollout of its content. Initial releases will include a selection of sports-themed titles, such as Hoop Champion and Shootout Champion, which have been tailored to meet regional player preferences.
Ontario, with a population of over 15 million, has quickly established itself as a key jurisdiction for the igaming industry since opening its market to private operators in 2022. According to data from iGaming Ontario, the province recorded more than CAD 2.4 billion in gross gaming revenue in 2023, supported by more than 1.2 million active player accounts and over 40 licensed operators.
Gaming Corps, known for developing non-traditional game formats and proprietary engines, is positioning its portfolio to meet the Ontario market’s demand for differentiated content. In addition to existing operator partnerships, the company is pursuing further agreements, including collaborations with licensees connected to major sports brands, as part of its broader North American expansion strategy in the igaming sector.
Juha Kauppinen, CEO at Gaming Corps, said: “Being approved for a license in Ontario is a major achievement and a clear validation of the quality, integrity, and compliance standards we uphold. Ontario is not only one of the most regulated iGaming markets in the world, but also a gateway into the wider North American region. This license opens up significant opportunities for Gaming Corps and reinforces our commitment to working only within licensed and regulated jurisdictions. With a growing appetite for original content, we’re excited about the potential Ontario holds – both in terms of player engagement and long-term growth.”
