Sweden-based slot studio Gaming Corps has expanded its multi-year partnership with global operator Entain, extending the distribution of its casino content across more Entain brands and markets — with Canada positioned as the key near-term focus. According to EE Gaming's July 8, 2026 coverage, the rollout confirms Gaming Corps titles are live on BetMGM Ontario and prepares the studio's content for a day-one launch on Party Casino and Sports Interaction when Alberta opens its regulated iGaming market on July 13.
The expanded agreement builds on Gaming Corps' existing Entain relationship. The supplier went live with Entain's joint venture BetMGM in Ontario in December 2025, followed by a wider Entain rollout in the province in March 2026. The latest phase extends that footprint across additional Entain brands and prepares the supplier for Alberta's entry into the regulated Canadian iGaming market — the second province to legalise after Ontario.

What's in the Expanded Gaming Corps × Entain Deal
The publicly disclosed portion of the expansion covers two near-term distribution events for Gaming Corps content in Canada:
- BetMGM Ontario (already live) — Gaming Corps content has been live on BetMGM Ontario since December 2025, with a wider Entain group rollout in the province completed in March 2026. The expanded deal formalises the relationship and sets up further brand-level distribution in Ontario going forward.
- BetMGM Alberta (day-one ready) — Gaming Corps content is "ready to go live from day one" on BetMGM when Alberta's regulated iGaming market opens on July 13, 2026. The BetMGM joint venture is jointly operated by Entain and MGM Resorts and will be one of the larger operator brands in the new Alberta market.
- Party Casino & Sports Interaction (Alberta follow-on) — Party Casino and Sports Interaction, both Entain brands, are lined up to carry Gaming Corps content in Alberta after BetMGM goes live. The two follow-on brands extend the studio's Alberta reach beyond the BetMGM player base.
Outside Canada, the expansion includes completed rollouts in Brazil (Sportingbet and Betboo, May 2026) and the United Kingdom (Ladbrokes, Coral Gala and Foxy, June 2026, exclusive 3 Pigs of Olympus launch). Additional launches are being prepared for Portugal, Spain, and New Zealand.
On the content side, the latest phase of the partnership features football-themed titles including Penalty Champion, Goals to Glory: Football Fever, and Goals to Glory: Instant Blitz — the same Goals to Glory series Gaming Corps used in its Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) launch on June 25, 2026. The series pairs with the broader 3 Pigs IP and other established Gaming Corps titles to give operators a recognisable football-timed content slate for the summer sports calendar.
Why Alberta Day-One Matters
Alberta's regulated iGaming market opens on July 13, 2026, becoming the second Canadian province to launch a fully-regulated online casino and sports betting market after Ontario. The supplier side of the market is racing to be ready on day one, and the operators with the deepest day-one supplier libraries will have a meaningful go-to-market advantage.
Entain, through BetMGM and its Party Casino and Sports Interaction brands, is one of a small handful of operators with a credible day-one Alberta plan. For a mid-sized slot studio like Gaming Corps, having content ready to ship on BetMGM's Alberta launch is therefore not a small distribution event — it's a chance to land in the new province with the largest possible operator footprint from day one. The July 8 announcement reads less like a routine supplier-extension press release and more like a coordinated go-to-market play for the Alberta launch.
The Ontario side of the deal is no less material. BetMGM Ontario is one of the province's larger AGCO-licensed operators, and Gaming Corps has been live there since December 2025. The expanded agreement formalises a multi-brand rollout that has been building since the spring and gives the studio an Entain group-wide footprint in the largest regulated Canadian market.
How This Fits the Broader Ontario Supplier Landscape
Ontario's regulated market has been on a steady cadence of supplier-distribution stories through the second quarter of 2026, with each new deal reflecting a slightly different angle on how content reaches Ontario players.
Gaming Corps itself has been on a notable run. The studio's June 11 launch with PowerPlay opened an iGaming Ontario channel; the June 25 OLG launch added the provincial crown corporation channel; and the July 8 Entain expansion consolidates the studio's multi-brand presence through the Entain group, including BetMGM, Party Casino, and Sports Interaction. That is three significant distribution events in less than four weeks — a notable cadence for a mid-sized European studio entering North America.
Wider Ontario supplier-distribution news from the same window includes Yggdrasil's YGG Champions studio programme launch on June 23, St8's content-aggregation deal with RubyPlay in late May, and Incentive Games' four crash-style titles on BetMGM Ontario in mid-June. The expanded Gaming Corps × Entain deal sits alongside these as one of the more material multi-brand distribution events of the quarter.
What Ontario Players Should Know
Ontario players who already play on BetMGM Ontario, Party Casino, or Sports Interaction will see the Gaming Corps titles in those operators' lobbies under the standard release cadence. BetMGM Ontario has carried Gaming Corps content since December 2025; the other Entain brands have carried it since the wider Entain rollout in March 2026. The July 8 announcement formalises the broader relationship rather than introducing new content to existing Ontario players.
Players who play with other AGCO-licensed operators — LeoVegas, Betway, Hard Rock Bet, theScore, and the rest — will not see Gaming Corps content on those sites unless the studio signs additional operator-level distribution on top of the Entain group deal. As of the July 8 announcement, no such additional Ontario operator deals have been disclosed, although the studio has indicated broader North American expansion plans as Alberta opens.
