Award-winning game development studio Evoplay has officially made its highly anticipated debut in the Canadian province of Ontario after launching a selection of its market-leading slot portfolio with the prominent operator, Rivalry.
This strategic move marks Evoplay’s first entry into the regulated Ontario market and significantly strengthens its foothold in North America.
The initial launch sees a curated selection of twenty of the studio’s top-performing and most innovative slot titles go live on the Rivalry platform.
Players in Ontario can now access a diverse range of popular games, including the fan-favourite fishing adventure The Greatest Catch Bonus Buy, the classic fruit-themed Hot Triple Sevens, and the fiery title, Hot Volcano.
This carefully chosen portfolio is designed to introduce a brand-new audience to the quality and engagement that Evoplay’s games are known for globally.
This key market entry is a direct result of Evoplay successfully securing a full registration from the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) in March 2025. The license paved the way for the studio to introduce its innovative content to the regulated Canadian market.
The partnership with Rivalry is a significant first step in this expansion, as Rivalry has established itself as a major player in Ontario’s iGaming landscape.
Having been one of the first operators to receive an online license in the province, Rivalry offers a comprehensive suite of products, including sports betting, esports, and casino, providing Evoplay with access to a large and engaged player base.
Through this collaboration, Evoplay successfully introduces its acclaimed content to a new demographic, laying a solid foundation for further growth and additional partnerships within the competitive Ontario market.
The move is a clear statement of the studio’s ambition to become a key content provider across regulated North American jurisdictions.
Alex Malchenko, Head of Sales at Evoplay, commented:
Going live in Ontario is a fantastic achievement for us. Integrating our portfolio with Rivalry is an important step in our commercial trajectory, and we are excited to introduce our content to their customers. We have high expectations on Ontario and this is the first step into this exciting and fast-moving market. We are confident that our diverse games offering will resonate with local players.
Steven Salz, CEO at Rivalry, said:
Our goal is to deliver the most entertaining and differentiated casino experience in Ontario. Partnering with Evoplay allows us to introduce high-quality, innovative content, that will resonate with our players and keep them coming back. We feel honoured to be the first operator to offer Evoplay’s titles in Ontario and look forward to a successful partnership.
