Yggdrasil has officially entered the Italian regulated online gaming market through a strategic alliance with Codere Italia. This launch marks Codere’s first expansion into a European market outside of Spain, with Yggdrasil serving as the central content partner to spearhead its Italian online casino ambitions.
Diversifying the Italian Casino Portfolio
The partnership provides Italian players with immediate access to Yggdrasil’s most celebrated titles, including Easter Island, Golden Fish Tank, and Arthur’s Fortune. Furthermore, Codere Italia will integrate specialized games developed under the YGG Masters program, offering a unique variety of content not found elsewhere in the jurisdiction.
Roberto Russo, Online Gaming Operation Director at Codere Italia, commented on the selection process:
“Italy represents our first European market outside Spain, so choosing the right content partners for this debut is critical. Yggdrasil’s reputation for high-quality, engaging games made them a natural fit.”
Market Efficiency through Microgame
The rapid deployment of Yggdrasil’s content was facilitated through its integration with Microgame, a leading service provider in the region. This technical bridge allowed for efficient content distribution across Codere’s licensed platforms.
Giovanni Foderá, Client Success Manager at Yggdrasil, remarked:
“Partnering with Codere marks an important step for Yggdrasil in Italy, and thanks to the integration of our games via Microgame, we believe this will be a great match for all”.
Italy remains a cornerstone of the European gaming market, and this partnership with Codere Italia significantly strengthens Yggdrasil’s broader global expansion strategy.
