Game Developer Achieves Full Independence After Two-Year Internal Build, Launching Weekly Releases and Custom Operator Content

Backseat Gaming has officially launched as a fully independent studio, transitioning to a proprietary remote gaming server (RGS) and technology stack built and controlled entirely by its in-house team. Following two years of dedicated internal development and testing, the milestone allows the studio to take complete command of its product roadmap and deliver player-led content to a global iGaming audience.

The studio already features active game deployments across multiple platforms and operators, bolstered by a recent integration with Hub88. Moving forward, Backseat Gaming plans to maintain a rapid cadence of one new game release per week, alongside the development of bespoke titles created exclusively for select operator partners.
