Launched in 2026, Rivalz is engineered for rapid deployment via API, allowing operators to integrate the games within their own branding and user interface while LOW6 manages contest operations, compliance tooling, and ongoing technical maintenance. The expanded skill game portfolio covers diverse formats, including blackjack, hold em, 8 ball pool, colour sort, and darts, with upcoming launches planned alongside multiple tier 1 operators in the USA.
