After two years of cancelled events due to the pandemic, we can now proudly present the best Arctic Game Week ever! As the midnight sun shines over northern Sweden, we once again open the doors to a week filled with business conferences, networking, entertainment and the public event Nordsken where games, culture and creativity meet. The event will be arranged in Skellefteå, Sweden, in the new cultural center Sara Kulturhus and in Skellefteå Kraft Arena.
The focus of Arctic Game Week is to create a strong platform with global appeal and to strengthen the Nordic entertainment industry. A unique conference with new business opportunities based on Intellectual Properties.
The week starts with Arctic Game Conference, northern Sweden’s annual meeting place for game developers, publishers, investors and game students and Fantastic Conference, a new meeting place that focuses on filmmakers, writers, illustrators, creators and streaming services.
The Arctic Game Conference and Fantastic Conference will bring together two different target groups. The purpose is to create new business when different industries that work with the same type of Intellectual Properties meet.
By facilitating that meeting and involving top industry names, we create a platform for the future”, says Johan Linder, project manager for Arctic Game Week.
The conferences, which are expected to attract about 1,000 participants, will together have 40 top lecturers from around the world, including Peter Zetterberg (Senior Director at Microsoft and founder of the company Wanderword), Agnes Larsson (Game Director at Mojang), Fredrik Malmberg (one of the founders to Swedish gaming industry and president of Heroic Signatures), Lloyd Levin (famous American film producer who has made Predator, Lara Croft, Event Horizon, Hellboy, Watchmen etc.), Tam 17, Vladislav Tsypljak from the Asian publisher Neon Doctrine, Elias and Agnes Våhlund (the creators of the book success Handbook for Superheroes) and Johan Egerkrans (one of today’s most famous Swedish illustrators). Host for the conference will be Orvar Säfström, well known film critic, musician and front figure for IPs and games.
On Friday, the program on the Creative Stage is especially aimed at librarians and teachers. Creators at the event then participate in panel discussions and lectures. Of course, other interested visitors can also attend these program items.
10-year anniversary for Nordsken
 
The game culture festival Nordsken celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. It will be a fantastic festival for everyone who likes popular culture, entertainment and games in all forms. The main attraction during the event will be the Swedish championship in Cosplay, which is a fantastic show to witness. During one of the evenings, a concert by Sabina Zweiacker will also be performed at the newly built culture house Sara, with music from The Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, The Witcher and others.

Covid has meant that there is a huge need to physically meet. Everyone we talk to now is extremely eager to visit Nordsken and to all our plans for the event, so we really believe that this will be something not to be missed”, says Pia Enroth, project manager for Nordsken.

Arctic Game Week is organized by Arctic Game (a game cluster that strengthens the gaming industry in northern Sweden) and Nordsken (non-profit organization) in collaboration with Bonnier, Rabén & Sjögren, B. Wahlströms, Wanderword, Global Top Round, Goodbye Kansas, Film i Västerbotten, Turborilla and Heroic Signatures.

Provider introduces its newest feature, Power Combo, in an action-packed slot with plenty of wild win potential

Step into the heart of the untamed frontier in Bison Moon – Power Combo, a slot from Northern Lights Gaming that captures the rugged beauty and boundless thrill of the Great Plains with plenty of big wins in store.

This action-packed slot introduces the provider’s latest mechanic, Power Combo, where three unique Scatters unlock incredible bonus features via its proprietary Link&Win feature. Players also get to experience the thrill of Expanding Reels for even more wild slotting action.

Players will feel the rush as Multipliers super-charge their payouts, amping up the excitement each time they hit. They can also seize the moment with Instant Collect, allowing them to claim big rewards as and when they drop.

But with each Scatter triggering a new layer of action, no two spins are ever the same.

Adding to the excitement is the Jackpot feature, which has been embedded within the Link&Win bonus. Players must land Jackpot Moons to trigger either Mini or Major Jackpot wins or fill the reels to unlock the Grand Jackpot and the game’s largest payouts.

For the boldest of adventurers, keep watch for the Scatters that turn into Golden Eagles. Collect five in total, and they can activate the Golden Eagle Pick’Em bonus.

From the serene beauty of the open plains to the heart-pounding moments of chasing down the Jackpots and Golden Eagles, Bison Moon Power Combo provides a slotting experience like no other.

All that players need to do to enjoy it is saddle up, embrace the wild and discover the riches waiting to be uncovered under the vast Western skies.

Chris Loftus, Commercial Director, at Northern Lights Gaming, said: “Bison Moon – Power Combo lets players take a walk on the reel wild side as they come face to face with magnificent beasts, big bonuses and plenty of slot playing action.

“Power Combo is a thrilling bonus that changes the game with every spin, and we really couldn’t think of a better game to introduce it to players. This, combined with Link&Win and plenty of jackpots to trigger, makes Bison Moon a compelling and rewarding slot to play.

“We look forward to seeing it roam into online casino lobbies, and for players to embark on their very own big win adventure under the vast Western skies.”

Checkd Dev, the leading iGaming technology specialist and part of the award-winning Checkd Group, has entered into a landmark three-year partnership with OpenBet, a leading provider of betting and gaming technology, content, and services. Together, they will deliver a next-generation Automated Betting Solution (ABS), known as ‘Trending BetBuilder,’ designed to enhance the pre-canned BetBuilder experience.

This strategic collaboration represents a significant milestone for Checkd Dev as it brings its proprietary ABS technology to the BetBuilder vertical for the first time, further expanding the product’s versatility and market impact.

Originally launched in 2023 to optimise the user experience of incorporating key statistics into the accumulator bet journey and increasing bet placement conversion for operators, Checkd Dev’s ABS has now evolved to serve the growing demand for automated, pre-canned bet builder content.

Trending BetBuilder integrates seamlessly with OpenBet’s market-leading pricing and BetBuilder capabilities, powered by SportCast, giving operators a powerful, scalable tool to curate engaging betting opportunities.

The partnership allows OpenBet’s global network of operators to benefit from: Dynamic, stats-driven pre-canned widgets for front-end user engagement, a fully automated back-end system for bet creation, management, and localisation, and a multi-territory ready interface that supports global scalability through a centralised, intuitive admin control panel.

This single integration delivers two key outcomes for operators: significantly increased pre-canned bet builder conversion rates and major operational efficiencies—saving trading teams valuable hours daily.

OpenBet’s BetBuilder, powered by SportCast, has revolutionised the sports betting landscape. This innovative product pioneered player stats and same-game betting, offering a premium and highly personalised experience. Today, it provides unparalleled entertainment to the world’s leading sportsbooks.

Commenting on the partnership, Andrew Grimshaw, Commercial Director at Checkd Dev, said: “This is an exciting step forward for Checkd Dev. Working alongside OpenBet’s SportCast, one of the most respected names in our industry, we’re thrilled to introduce a powerful, automated solution to their extensive global client base.

“Our accumulator product has already proven its value with Tier 1 operators in the UK market. With this expanded ABS now tailored for pre-canned bet builders, we’re confident OpenBet clients will experience both uplift in conversion and operational time savings in what is a high-margin, high-volume betting category.”

Jason Ayton, SVP Business Development & Strategy at OpenBet, said: “Through our BetBuilder product, powered by SportCast, we provide customers with highly engaging, personal digital experiences that immerse them in the excitement of live sport.

“Trending BetBuilder takes the product to the next level for our partners. It offers an automated solution that gives operators around the world a pre-canned content solution that is highly scalable and adaptable to local markets. We believe it will have a major positive impact on the market as it rolls out with our global partner base.”
