Mercedes-Benz AG, as an official automotive partner of the globally renowned game “League of Legends,” is supporting the esports event, the “2023 League of Legends World Championship,” held in Seoul and Busan from October 10 to November 19. This year’s World Championship, where the League of Legends Esports elite will compete for the iconic Summoner’s Cup, is accompanied by Mercedes-Benz for the fourth consecutive year.

In Korea, the epicentre of the esports universe and where League of Legends achieved great success, esports has become a substantial part of Korean culture and industry. The combination of a tech-driven mindset with a passionate community and the pursuit of constant improvement not only led to Korea being a leading nation in Esports but also reflects the brand spirit of Mercedes-Benz.

Britta Seeger, Member of the Board of Management Mercedes-Benz Group AG, Marketing & Sales, said: “The dynamic and innovative mindset of the esports community aligns seamlessly with our brand’s dedication to push boundaries and our pioneering cutting-edge technology. Together with our partner Riot Games, we look forward to being a part of this culture and create a memorable experience for our fans worldwide.”

Naz Aletaha, Global Head of League of Legends Esports, Riot Games, said: “Mercedes-Benz’s and Riot’s joint dedication to excellence and innovation, combined with Seoul’s tech-forward culture, creates a synergy that will enhance the Worlds 23 experience from every aspect.”

Mercedes-Benz Korea, which is sponsoring T1 since May this year, is planning diverse events for Korean fans in line with the 2023 League of Legends World Championship season.

From a sports perspective, expectations are high for T1, which includes Lee Sang-hyeok alias Faker, a superstar in the League of Legends e-sports world. T1, a three-time League of Legends World Champion, is aiming to secure their first League of Legends World Championship victory since 2016, by winning the title in their home country at this year’s World Championship.

‘Faker’ Lee Sang-hyeok, the leader of T1, said: “It is an honor to play in the Worlds here in my home country, the support of the fans and the whole Esports culture in Korea is unparalleled. It is amazing to see a global brand like Mercedes-Benz embrace the passion that defines our community.”

Spinomenal marks the start of the holiday season with Majestic Santa

Published

Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has unwrapped its new title Majestic Santa, signalling the start of the festive season.

Spinomenal’s festive-inspired treat is a 5×3 slot that is bursting with Christmas imagery including red stockings, gingerbread men, and glistening golden bells. The reels are beautifully presented within a golden frame amongst snow-covered rooftops, softly glowing windows, candles, and lanterns. A festive, homely soundtrack wraps players snugly into the action as they look to win.

Unwrapping three Christmas wreaths will take players into the Free Spins game. Before the round begins, players spin the Wheel of Fortune to determine both the number of free spins (between 10 and 40) and the symbol that will double during the feature.

Majestic Santa’s bonus feature is triggered when three luxurious gold ribboned presents appear on screen. Players are given three spins to start, and the goal is to complete the metre by collecting Scattered winning symbols.

One segment of the metre is completed with five present symbols and players can win extra spins when they find a +1 symbol. Once the spins end there will be the final payout calculated by the final filled metre cell.

Majestic Santa also includes Stacked Wilds, where Wild symbols can land during spins to elevate the chances of a festive win. In the base game, only Double Symbols can be triggered — transforming all symbols into their double form for even greater payout potential.

Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Majestic Santa is an ode to the magic of the holiday season. Its warming visuals and festive soundtrack perfectly complement the excitement of Stacked Wilds and Double Symbols, delivering unmistakable Christmas cheer and plenty of chances to win.”

ThrillTech makes three additions to senior team to accelerate ‘explosive’ growth

– VP of Growth, Global Sales Director and Head of Technical Compliance recruited

– Additions bring experience from Evolution, Pragmatic Play and Kiron

– Jackpot provider aiming to build on momentum after breakout year 

ThrillTech, the global leader in side-bet jackpot technology for iGaming operators and game studios, has strengthened its senior team as it looks to build on a period of “explosive” growth.

Xavier Besseau has been appointed VP of Growth, making the switch from Kiron Interactive. Xavier has more than a decade of experience in iGaming, with previous roles at Sportradar, TrueLayer and Gaming Innovation Group.

Nemanja Grujicic has also joined the commercial team as ThrillTech’s Global Sales Director. Grujicic was most recently head of account management at slots provider Popiplay and was previously in a similar role at Pragmatic Play.

Also joining the ThrillTech team is Rocio Mata, who arrives as the new Head of Technical Compliance. Mata spent more than 10 years with Evolution, most recently as Senior Technical Compliance.

Collectively, the new arrivals bring deep expertise across commercial strategy, compliance and growth acceleration – all core pillars of ThrillTech’s next phase.

Founded in 2023, ThrillTech has enjoyed a successful 2025 and now employs 15 people, working remotely and in offices in Cyprus and Malta.

ThrillTech helps amplify player experiences while boosting GGR for partners with its unique ThrillPots and ThrillDrops products and is now licensed and certified in 10 jurisdictions.

Benjamin Bradtke, co-founder at ThrillTech, said: “A huge indicator that a company is doing well is its ability to attract and retain the brightest minds in the industry, and I am so pleased to say that the three new hires we’ve welcomed across Q4 are an incredible asset to ThrillTech.

“This has been a genuine breakout year for us. We’ve seen explosive growth across our product lines, expanded into new jurisdictions and secured partnerships with operators who are embracing a more creative approach to jackpots and player engagement.

“Bringing Xavier, Nemanja and Rocio into the business now is very deliberate – they’re here to help us accelerate that momentum through the final stretch of 2025 and propel us into an even stronger 2026.”
