Mobile games developer to gain direct access to a network of approved affiliates as it looks to boost its marketing activity
First Look Games, the award-winning marketing platform for game studios, has welcomed boutique independent content developer, ESA Gaming, to its roster of partners.
ESA Gaming, which is embarking on a 2024 roadmap of innovative slot releases, can now access a fully branded library where it can upload information and assets for each of its games including game sheets, logos, images and videos of each title.
These can then be downloaded by First Look Games’ network of approved affiliate partners to be used to create previews and reviews of each title.
The First Look Games platform is powerful and sophisticated and even allows providers to offer demo links for each of their games with player verification carried out seamlessly by 1account.
This means that affiliates in highly regulated markets can still let players enjoy demo spins on games before firing up the reels and playing them with real money at online casinos.
ESA Gaming has total control over its library and the assets it shares with affiliates, including when those assets are made available.
It can even offer a selection of affiliates a “first look” up to two weeks before a game goes live, helping to generate anticipation and excitement among players.
Elliot Resnick, Managing Director at First Look Games, said: “ESA Gaming is an exciting studio responsible for some truly great content.
“By partnering with First Look Games, the studio can connect with players the best affiliates in the business and promote games to highly engaged audiences looking for the latest content to play.
“That First Look Games allows studios to do this in a way that is highly cost-effective is yet another reason why providers such as ESA Gaming come to us to turbo-charge game promotion.”
Thomas Smallwood, Head of Marketing at ESA Gaming, added: “As an independent studio, we have the freedom to create truly unique games but driving awareness of our titles can be tough given the stiff competition we face from the industry’s power players.
“This is an important partnership with us, and we look forward to unlocking the full potential of the First Look Games platform as we level up the promotion and marketing of our games.”

Internet Vikings and SB Software Partnership Transforms Infrastructure Performance for iGaming Operator Editec
Internet Vikings, a licensed hosting provider for the European and U.S. iGaming and online sports betting industry, and SB Software a B2B provider of iGaming platforms, share the success of their partnership in transforming performance outcomes for Editec, a multinational gaming operator serving over 20 countries and operating among others such brands as: PremierBetZone, PremierLotoZone, ZoneGold, etc.
The Challenge: Infrastructure Bottlenecks Threaten Growth
As Editec was growing dynamically, it required the implementation of the best available server solution. Simply adding storage was inefficient, creating persistent bottlenecks that threatened the operator’s expansion plans and the quality of the user experience.
The Turning Point: Purpose-Built iGaming Infrastructure
SB Software, Editec’s trusted platform provider, began conversations with Internet Vikings, an established iGaming-focused hosting provider to deliver a comprehensive solution combining advanced platform capabilities with specialized hosting infrastructure to secure platform and operator’s growth. Internet Vikings implemented a VMware vSAN-based cloud solution specifically optimized for high-demand iGaming workloads. The new setup delivers up to 20,000 (input/output operations per second) per virtual machine with average throughput of 600-700 MB/s representing an enormous performance improvement over the previous solution.
“Internet Vikings stood out through their technical transparency, great account management, and understanding of the specific industry needs,” said Kamil Głowacki, CTO at SB Software. “They provided clear performance benchmarks and a detailed roadmap that addressed our client’s exact requirements.”
Measurable Results Across Multiple Markets
The partnership has delivered significant improvements across Editec’s operations:
Performance Enhancement: Virtual machines now handle peak loads without degradation, supporting seamless user experiences during high-traffic periods.
Operational Efficiency: Unified back-office management across all 20+ countries, with multi-language and multi-currency support, custom loyalty programs, and specialized odds management.
Scalable Architecture: Infrastructure designed to support continued growth and market expansion without performance compromise.
“SB Software’s flexibility in tailoring solutions to our business requirements has been exceptional,” added the Editec spokesperson. “Combined with Internet Vikings’ hosting expertise, we now have a technology foundation that can scale with the platform and our ambitions.”
Industry Implications
The successful partnership demonstrates the value of specialized providers in the iGaming sector, where standard hosting solutions often fall short of industry-specific performance requirements. “This collaboration shows how purpose-built infrastructure and flexible platform solutions can transform operational outcomes,” said Rickard Vikström, CEO and Founder of Internet Vikings. “When hosting providers truly understand iGaming demands, operators can focus on growth rather than technical limitations.”
For iGaming operators looking for a powerful and scalable platform supported by a hosting provider that truly feels the industry, the Editec–SB Software–Internet Vikings story shows a clear blueprint of an alliance for success.
