The firm’s content licensing sales lifted 26% in North America last year, helped higher as more states allowed online gaming, while growth stood at an even higher 33% elsewhere.
It added that 2024 had got off to a “promising start”, with sales up 20% year-on-year in the first two months.
It has also released three new Slingo games so far this year, including Slingo Hot Roll and China Shores Slingo.
Mark Segal, chief executive of Gaming Realms, said: “We are now licensing our games into 20 regulated markets and have launched with 44 partners in the year and have 75 live games which demonstrates the scale of our content licensing business.”
On the outlook, he added: “With this momentum, we are excited to continue delivering further game launches, new partner deals and, with planned launches in West Virginia and Greece, expanding our global footprint even further.”
The group also released a raft of titles over 2023, such as Slingo Cleopatra with gambling giant IGT, while it also collaborated with two of the best known video game brands with Slingo Space Invaders and Tetris Slingo.
