About Yggdrasil Gaming

Yggdrasil Gaming is a B2B iGaming software supplier and online casino game developer founded in 2013 by Fredrik Elmqvist. The company develops casino content, platform technology and engagement tools for regulated international markets, serving operators across Europe, Latin America and other licensed jurisdictions.

Its portfolio includes online video slots and table-game content, with titles such as Vikings Go Berzerk, Valley of the Gods, Raptor DoubleMax, Golden Fish Tank, Cazino Zeppelin and Holmes and the Stolen Stones. The studio builds games around its proprietary Game Engagement Mechanics, including MultiMax™, Gigablox™, Splitz™ and DoubleMax™, alongside the HTML5-based iSENSE 2.0+ framework.

Publishing and platform ecosystem

Yggdrasil operates as both a first-party developer and a publishing and technology partner. Its YGG Masters initiative enables independent studios to build and distribute games through Yggdrasil’s operator network using Game Adaptation Tools & Interface (GATI) and Game in a Box™. Studio in a Box™ provides a white-label development platform for partners building casino content.

The company also offers BOOST™, a set of in-game gamification tools that lets operators run features such as tournaments, cash drops and missions within game clients. Its Source Platform and distribution capabilities support multi-market operator integrations and content delivery.

Company development

Originally established under Swedish gaming group Cherry AB, Yggdrasil expanded from an in-house game studio into a broader publisher and B2B solutions provider. Cherry AB was taken private in 2019 by European Entertainment Intressenter BidCo AB, a consortium led by Bridgepoint. Yggdrasil remains active as an international supplier of casino games, development platforms and player-engagement technology.
