Backseat Gaming launches as fully independent studio

Backseat Gaming has launched as a fully independent studio, saying it is now operating on a proprietary remote gaming server (RGS) to deliver player-led content to a global audience.

The company said the move follows two years of internal development and testing, and that it is now running entirely on its own technology stack built and controlled by its in-house team.

Backseat Gaming said it already has games live with multiple operators and platforms, including a recent integration with Hub88. The studio said it is now fully in charge of its roadmap and is launching one new game each week, alongside plans to develop bespoke titles created exclusively for select operators.

Espen Oeye, Co-Founder and CEO at Backseat Gaming, said: "This is a defining moment for Backseat Gaming, after years of dedicated work by our team to create a studio that's entirely our own.

"Having full ownership of our technology and roadmap means we can move faster and stay closer to what players really want. We're looking forward to building on the momentum we have already gained, as we continue expanding our reach across the global iGaming industry."
