Peter & Sons applying Gigablox The game studio entered into a deal with Yggdrasil, enabling its creative team to leverage one of the latter’s popular proprietary mechanics – the Gigablox. Peter & Sons looks to enhance its future game production with the integration of the same payout mechanic used in game titles like ‘Lucky Neko’ and ‘Hades.’ The developer becomes the fourth studio to sign up for the Gigablox mechanic since Yggdrasil introduced this GEM offering within the YG Masters program. Reflex Gaming, DreamTech Gaming, and Bang Bang Games are the other studios that already incorporated this engine for the development of their games. Gigablox is one of the three Yggdrasil’s proprietary mechanics the supplier introduced to partners as part of the GEM offering. MultiMax and Splitz mechanics also bring fresh concepts to the gaming industry with a focus on increasing player engagement and retention levels. Peter & Sons is set to implement Gigablox into its games development process, while it may take before the end of the year for the development of the first game built around the said mechanics to begin. The studio joined Yggdrasil’s YG Masters program in October 2020, with the goal of accelerating growth strategy via access to the GATI technology. GATI, used by all YG Masters partners, is a preconfigured, regulation-ready development toolkit, enabling studios and game developers to use a standardized technology solution to develop and distribute games anywhere in the world. Key People on Peter & Sons applying GigaBlox Stuart McCarthy, head of partner programs at Yggdrasil, said: “We are thrilled with the interest in our GEM offering and it is a testament to the popularity of our mechanics with players around the globe. “By incorporating Gigablox into their upcoming titles, Peter & Sons will be able to take their games to the next level and we look forward to seeing the results.” Yann Bautista, business development manager at Peter & Sons, noted “We are very happy to license Yggdrasil’s popular Gigablox mechanical framework to build new and exciting games to add to our growing portfolio,” “We are always looking for new ways to engage and surprise players and building on Yggdrasil’s proven slot mechanics sets a solid foundation for us to create thrilling new content.
