MY.GAMES DIVES INTO ALTERNATIVE DISTRIBUTION WITH APTOIDE
Aptoide, the original independent app store on Android and iOS, today announces strategic partnerships with MY.GAMES, a leading European developer and publisher, which will see some of the world’s best-loved mobile games join Aptoide’s Android store.
In bringing their games to Aptoide, MY.GAMES will access a large, engaged audience of new users in Europe, the US and across the globe. Aptoide is the longest-standing alternative app store with more than 50 million monthly active users. In 2024, the company made history by launching the first ever third-party storefront on iOS.
Founded in 2011, Aptoide has led the charge in alternative distribution for more than a decade, and brought the first ever successful antitrust challenge against Google in 2018. Since then, a wave of legislation including the European Union’s Digital Markets Act has opened up the distribution ecosystem further and raised awareness of alternative channels among game developers and publishers.
Paulo Trezentos, CEO of Aptoide, said:
“This is a significant moment for Aptoide, and for the unstoppable rise of a fairer distribution landscape for publishers and users alike. By bringing these chart-topping games to Aptoide, we are continuing our commitment to giving our users access to the best mobile gaming content available. We’re pleased that one of the leading brands in mobile gaming, MY.GAMES, has chosen Aptoide as a partner in their quest for new users, new revenue streams, and greater control over the distribution of their IPs.”
The new partnerships represent the first time MY.GAMES has distributed a game in an app store not owned by a major hardware manufacturer, representing a significant milestone in the rise of independent distribution ecosystems. The new titles coming to Aptoide are as follows:
MY.GAMES:
-
Rush Royale, a fast paced real time strategy game, that has garnered over 90 million lifetime installs, with lifetime revenue of $370 million to date.
-
Additionally, the action-packed survival shooter Left to Survive has exceeded over 70 million lifetime installs, with lifetime revenue of $140 million.
Elena Grigorian, CEO of MY.GAMES, commented:
“At MY.GAMES, we are always looking for innovative ways to bring our games to new audiences. Partnering with Aptoide enables us to tap into a large, global user base while exploring alternative distribution channels that align with our mission of delivering high quality, engaging games to players, everywhere. We are confident that this partnership will bring great value to both our players and developers.”

Promatic Games, a polish game-tech brand and a slots studio specializing in game design and software solutions for online casinos, officially entered the Slovak market on January 24th, 2025. Eurogold, a long-time partner of Promatic Group in the land-based gaming sector, became the first online casino in Slovakia to launch 10 of the studio’s popular online slot games.
“Entering the Slovak market has been a significant milestone for us. This year, we are focused on strengthening our presence in Central Europe, with Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Romania, Croatia and other markets in the region as key strategic priorities. Our portfolio of over 100 online slot games is designed to meet the expectations of players in these markets, as proven by our success in Poland. Partnering with a long-time customer for our initial launch in Slovakia was a natural choice, but our ultimate goal is to become a widely recognized game provider in the country and a trusted partner for all operators “– says Maciej Makuszewski, Head of iGaming at Promatic.
The collaboration with Eurogold online casino marks a significant milestone in Promatic Games’ journey. This partnership brings a selection of top-tier games to Slovak players, including fan-favorites such as Jumping Fruits, Ultra Reels, 81 Show, and Miss Inferno Deluxe. As a highlight for this market, Promatic Games has developed an exclusive slot for Eurogold – Kmeťo King Deluxe – which is a tribute to a popular Slovak folk singer Igor Kmeťo. The game is available exclusively at Eurogold.sk and features some of Mr. Kmeťo’s music during the gameplay. The launch of Kmeťo King Deluxe underscores Promatic Games’ commitment to delivering localized and tailored gaming experiences for new audiences.
All ten games introduced to the Slovak market have successfully passed rigorous certification by TSU Laboratory, a local Slovak authority specializing in game testing and certification. TSU ensures that all gaming software complies with international standards, guaranteeing fairness, reliability, and security for players. Promatic Games’ adherence to these high standards emphasizes the company’s dedication to delivering trusted and quality experiences.
Promatic Games is already preparing its next lineup of titles, promising to bring even more unforgettable gaming experiences to Slovak players. The new games will include, amongst others, Janosik 30 game based on the character of both Polish and Slovak folk hero. This expansion signals the company’s dedication to growing its presence in the Slovak market while maintaining the exceptional standards it is known for.
