The tournament will follow a double-elimination bracket format, with matches being best-of-3 matches and the final matches being best-of-5. Each player will bring 3 decks, each with a different Avatar, and once a deck has won a game, it may not be used again within that set. The total prize pool is $30,000, split equally between the two conferences, with rewards ranging from $750 to $5,000 for the top Apeiron competitors.

Participation is by invitation only, and fans influence the selection by requesting their favorite Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) to join. The participants include notable members of the Web2 and Web3 gaming space, including:

Yolo Group Extends Solaride Partnership

Agreement focused on innovation renewed for two more years with Yolo Group supporting Solaride at 2025 Bridgestone World Solar Challenge

IT and technology company Yolo Group will partner with the Estonia-based Solaride for another two years, providing key support for the educational project focused on the future of sustainable technology.

The extended partnership, built on a mutual understanding that supporting innovation is the best way to create a brighter future, will now run until the end of 2025 and see Yolo Group branding on Solaride’s entry to the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge next year.

Solaride is an educational project focused on popularising technology education among young people, with more than 300 high school students, university students, mentors, trainers and partners taking part.

“Solaride is all about empowering young people who are not afraid to step outside of their comfort zone to make a difference and we couldn’t have found a better partner to support this mission than Yolo Group,” the Chief Executive Officer for Solaride’s third season, Asso Soosalu, said. “Its ‘fun, fast and fair’ approach has already been a huge help to us and we’re looking forward to working even more closely with its team to bring our dream of another successful World Solar Challenge to life in 2025.”

“The Solaride team is a huge inspiration to all of us at Yolo Group,” the Head of Partnerships for Yolo Group, Richard Barnwell, said. “We’re on the same page when it comes to putting innovation at the heart of everything. It’s been a real pleasure working alongside it and supporting its epic journey to Australia last October to compete in the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge. We simply couldn’t turn down the opportunity to do it all again in 2025.”

Yolo Group had previously supported Solaride’s 2023 campaign at the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge, with Yoloers travelling to Australia to cheer on the team and Yolo Group ambassador Brett Lee meeting the Solaride team at the finish line. Yolo Group has also hosted recruitment workshops to help Solaride attract the best young talent in Estonia.

This time, the two organisations will work to build an even deeper cooperation via joint events, shared career and growth opportunities and mentorship.

Campeon Gaming’s Scarabet Off to a High Start with Delasport’s Sportsbook

A new Campeon Gaming brand has just been launched, powered by Delasport’s sportsbook solution. Scarabet is the hub of high-quality entertainment running on Campeon Gaming’s in-house platform.

Scarabet promises even further success to its group after last year’s expansion of FoggyBet and 21.Red.

The new website runs on Campeon Gaming’s robust modular in-house platform. For the sports betting vertical, the iGaming leaders are once again trusting Delasport. The renowned supplier is reaping success after success with its sportsbook solution that is tuned to maintain high margins through personalization, unique ways of betting and real-time player engagement tools. A huge factor contributing to the impressive streak is the plug and play iFrame solution that allows operators to quickly embed and utilize Delasport’s sportsbook on their websites.

“Partnering with Campeon Gaming on yet another promising brand makes us proud and excited and we’ll help it stand out in its market right from the very start,” the Business Development Vice-President for Delasport, Rosaire Galea Cavallaro, said. “Campeon Gaming’s team is highly professional and that makes our day-to-day work with it a real treat. Sports betting is a must for any brand and we’re happy to assist Scarabet in reaching the highest margins in sports through optimal player retention, professional traders and risk managers and real-time player engagement.”

The personalized features and engagement tools make deals like this one a no-brainer. Overall, we take pride in how Scarabet has come together and we were eager to unveil it; undoubtedly players will enjoy everything about it.”

kr3m Unveils New Online Gaming Platform for Le Monde

Bridging German tech with French media: kr3m’s Playground enhances France’s premier daily newspaper’s website with more global partnerships on the horizon

kr3m, a trailblazer in digital entertainment based in Karlsruhe, Germany, is broadening its global outreach with the launch of a new and exciting project. The company’s online gaming platform, Playground, has been integrated into the digital services offered by Le Monde, the premier daily newspaper in France. This partnership represents kr3m’s inaugural foray into markets beyond German-speaking countries, signaling the beginning of an ambitious plan to forge global partnerships in 2024.

Playground, an innovative ‘white-label’ solution for the integration of HTML5 games at publishing houses, is used in Germany, Austria and Switzerland by most major publishers and media houses such as Der Spiegel, Focus, Bild, NZZ, Blick and Kronen Zeitung. Since early February, French audiences can enjoy this platform, localized in French and tailored to meet Le Monde’s specifications, at Arcade.LeMonde. fr.

The Managing Director for kr3m, Jan Reichert, expressed excitement over the collaboration, stating: “Collaborating with Le Monde to feature our HTML5 games is a privilege. This partnership is a key milestone in our strategy to expand internationally and sets a positive tone for 2024.”

Playground games are available to Le Monde’s readers without the need for registration, offering instant access to beloved classics like solitaire, sudoku, mahjong and snake, all at no cost and playable directly in web browsers.

The Benefits of HTML5 Games:

HTML5 games offer an immediate, hassle-free gaming experience across both mobile and desktop platforms, eliminating the need for downloads or wait times. Casual games not only help to increase traffic but also prolong the time users spend on the websites, increase the return rate and thus user loyalty to the portal. On average, users engage with the games for over 15 minutes.

The games are funded through advertising, yet players have the choice to opt for a gaming subscription as well; a tactic that’s becoming more and more popular with leading online newspapers but one that is not currently integrated on Arcade.LeMonde. fr. Classics like crossword puzzles, sudoku, solitaire, mahjong and bubble shooters form the cornerstone of Playground, chosen for their widespread global appeal.
