Reading Time: 3 minutes
Luxury gaming manufacturer and electronic table game (ETG) market leader, Interblock, announced today their partnership with Eldorado Resorts, Inc. Circus Circus Reno and Silver Legacy Resort Casino will be amongst the first of over 20 Eldorado properties to install the new electronic products which will attract existing and new players alike to the next generation of gaming. Circus Circus Reno will become the first casino in North America to replace all of their live tables with an Electronic Table Pit.
John Connelly, Chief Executive Officer of Interblock, said, “The ability to demonstrate the operational efficiencies Electronic Table Games can offer, combined with its revenue generating capabilities, is only possible with the willingness to innovate. Eldorado is one of the first operators in North America to embrace this concept and completely automate one of their casino floors through Electronic Table Games. Interblock will continue to invest heavily in supporting Eldorado’s innovation.”
Utilizing technology, Eldorado is quickly automating their casinos to offer various forms of Electronic Tables Games to reduce operating expenses and drive higher handle/hold across their operations. The extent of this effort ranges from Live Stadiums, Automated Electronic Table Game Pits and Standalone products; each designed to cater to a different demographic, yet achieving the same financial results.
Anthony Carano, President and Chief Operating Officer at Eldorado Resorts, said, “We are proud to partner with Interblock as we continue to focus on innovative ways to provide our guests with dynamic, first-to-market games and continue to deliver the unbelievable experience they have come to expect from Eldorado Resorts.”
The implementation of Electronic Table Game Stadiums, combined with Standalone products, has taken an array of shapes, depending on the casino. For example, Circus Circus Reno has introduced electronic table games across the entire casino floor, while other casinos have complimented their traditional table game offering with ETGs. The flexibility of Interblock to transition between Live Electronic Table Game environments, and then migrate to a strictly automated format in non-peak hours, is an example of how technology can be used to transform the way we look at table games. This, combined with the largest product portfolio in this sector, ensures all forms of table games can be met.
Just some of the products being offered by Eldorado Resorts in an Electronic format are Blackjack, Roulette, Craps, and Baccarat in both a Live and Automated format.

Ygam and TSB Bank have joined forces to help increase understanding of in-game spending and help young gamers manage their money with confidence.
Ygam and TSB Bank have joined forces to help increase understanding of in-game spending and help young gamers manage their money with confidence.
As part of this collaboration, they have co-created specialist educational resources for schools. Developed with Ygam’s expertise and delivered by TSB Bank staff as part of their school’s programme which runs throughout the UK, the module aims to provide young gamers with practical guidance on managing their money and understanding potential financial risks while gaming.
A recent Censuswide survey of over 2,000 young gamers, commissioned by TSB, found that while the average initial cost of a game is £32, gamers spend an average of £540 annually on in-game purchases and subscriptions. Nearly half (47%) of those who spend money in-game feel they have little or no control over their spending while playing.
Linda Scollins Smith, Director of Programmes at Ygam, said: “Gaming now plays a central role in young people’s lives, offering significant benefits. However, it is always important to safeguard against the risks, and the increasing sophistication of game monetisation through microtransactions and in-game purchases underscores the need for education on this issue. We are delighted to be working with TSB to support their school programmes, combining financial education with gaming education, to help young gamers develop healthy habits and navigate the digital world safely.”
Kate Osiadacz, Head of Responsible Business, TSB, said: “Gaming is often one of young people’s first interactions with spending or managing their money digitally; so we’re pleased to be working with Ygam to reach young people with targeted advice. Our Money Confident schools programme greatly benefits from Ygam’s insight – and we’re keen help empower the next generation to make informed decisions for their financial lives ahead.”
According to a 2024 Mumsnet survey commissioned by Ygam, 88% of parents in the UK believe schools should provide education on gaming, despite only 35% reporting that their children currently do. Furthermore, 99% of these parents think this education should begin by the end of Key Stage 2.
Alongside developing educational resources, Ygam and TSB Bank will collaborate on a range of initiatives throughout 2025 to raise awareness of this issue and support families in avoiding unexpected costs from gaming.

MixRift unveils brand new strategic PvP arena gaming experience
MixRift, an innovative mixed reality (MR) gaming developer, today announced the official launch of Battle Orb, a competitive strategy game which invites players to challenge each other and transform their physical surroundings into dynamic battlefields. Available now for Meta Quest platforms, Battle Orb represents the next evolution in mutli-player MR gaming.
A first PvP game for MixRift, Battle Orb allows players to step into immersive arenas where physical and digital worlds collide. Skill meets chaos in this fast-paced multiplayer strategy game, which challenges players to aim, shoot, and dominate with speed and precision across customized battlefields, combining tactical thinking with physics-based gameplay. Every hit counts as players collide, strategise and outplay opponents from around the world, from the comfort of their own homes. Players can compete in 2-player or 4-player battles, earn trophies, unlock and upgrade powerful units, and master unique arenas to climb the leaderboard.
“With Battle Orb, we’re not just launching a game, we’re basically turning your living room into a fantasy battleground.” said Bobby Voicu, CEO of MixRift. “We wanted to create something where anyone can jump in and start having fun in seconds, but that you could also master and keep replaying. I think this is what the future of gaming looks like, and it’s a blast!”
Key Features:
- HD Graphics: Cutting-edge MR design technology creates a truly immersive gaming experience
- Creative Character Options: Choose from tens of monsters, creatures, and cartoons to play with – each one zanier than the last
- Real-Time PvP Action: Face-off in 2-player or 4-player matches full of high-stakes action
- Physics Meets Strategy: Master the perfect angle, power, and timing to outmaneuver opponents, and perfect your shots to climb through the ranks
- Unique Units & Powers: Earn wins and open loot chests to unlock and upgrade special characters and abilities
- Environmental Integration: Scale your battlefield to fit any space, turning living rooms into competitive arenas
- Competitive Progression: Climb global leaderboards through a rewarding rank system and prove you’re the righteous winner
The game’s intuitive controls ensure players of all skill levels can jump in immediately, while the strategic elements provide long-term engagement for competitive gamers. Battle Orb’s intuitive and quick matchmaking system means players are matched with others in similar ranks within seconds.
Battle Orb has been designed with comfort and safety in mind, earning a “Comfortable” rating and PEGI 3 classification, making it appropriate for players of all ages while still delivering compelling gameplay for serious competitors.
“We’ve created Battle Orb to be a really special mixed-reality competitive experience,” said Voicu. “The way it transforms your physical environment into a strategic battlefield creates moments of gaming magic that simply aren’t possible in traditional formats.”
Availability:
Battle Orb is available now on the Meta Quest Store for Meta Quest 3S, Meta Quest 3, and Meta Quest 2 platforms. The game requires an internet connection for its online features.
