UK-based Betlow has been acquired by Core Gaming as part of a long-term plan to design and deliver branded and original content to land-based and online operators.

Core Gaming was recently established by Steven Murray and James Grenfell to develop content including venue-based games terminals for ‘bricks and mortar’ casinos, and Betlow stated that its purchase will allow both companies to offer ‘the best of both worlds in terms of design and experience’ from a ‘single operational base’.

‘The integration of Betlow into Core Gaming combines considerable experience of designing original and branded content for both terminal and online applications and powerful, enduring relationships in both the land and web-based gaming industries,’ says Murray.

Betlow is led by Managing Director Justin Chamberlain and has a steadily growing reputation among online operators and software providers after delivering in excess of 50 titles over the previous three years.

Chamberlain adds: ‘The knowledge sharing and synergistic developments will enable land-based experience to be taken online and Internet related know-how and creative skills to be transferred into venues.’
