The prestigious award ceremony took place on the final day of the SBC Summit Barcelona at the Caves Codorniu, where Evoplay was nominated for seven categories.

Judges were particularly impressed with the provider’s Football Pack which has been commended by operators for its ability to appeal to new demographics and capture the interest of previously untapped markets in the iGaming landscape.

Evoplay’s standout release of the year, Penalty Shoot-out found success not only with online casinos but also on sportsbook websites across LatAm and Europe, with the graphics and gameplay mirroring the atmosphere and thrill of a football stadium.

The game empowers players through customisable features such as choosing the goalpost corner to take a shot at and enabling them to select which national team to play for.

During the previous year, the provider continued to release diverse titles that took the industry by storm and entered a slew of new partnerships with multiple tier-one providers, including Bragg Gaming, Fortuna Entertainment Group and Relax Gaming.

Commenting on the accomplishment, Ivan Kravchuk, CEO at Evoplay, said: “In what has been a remarkable year of success for Evoplay we are thrilled to receive an accolade for Industry Innovation of the Year at the SBC Awards 2023, one of the most prestigious awards in the industry.

“The recognition is a testament to the dedication and passion the team have put into driving the industry forward, exemplified in our Penalty Shoot-out game, a flagship title in our portfolio. We look forward to building on this success and continuing our unstoppable trajectory for the remained of the year and beyond.”
