East Side Games Group (TSX: EAGR) (OTC: EAGRF) (" ESGG " or the " Company "), Canada's leading free-to-play mobile game group, announces that it has entered into a publishing and Game Kit partnership agreement with NoPowerup Vietnam JSC (" NoPowerup "), based in Hanoi, Vietnam for the world-wide release of a free-to-play mobile game on iOS and Android (the " Partnership ").

The game will be developed in-house by NoPowerup, leveraging ESGG's proven Game Kit-Idle technology, and will be published by East Side Games (" ESG "). The title will be an idle business tycoon-style game and is expected to launch world-wide in 2022. Terms of the Partnership are subject to confidentiality obligations.

This platform is utilized by ESGG studios and is also open to third-party developers on a partnership basis.

"We are excited to expand our Game Kit network into Hanoi, Vietnam and we couldn't have selected a better partner to do this with. Known for developing the hit idle game, Lumber Empire: Idle Tycoon , NoPowerup has developed many top-tier Hyper Casual and Idle mobile games. They now get to leverage their past success and experience as they develop on ESGG's Game Kit-Idle platform," said Darcy Taylor , Chief Executive Officer of East Side Games Group. "This Game Kit agreement with NoPowerup is the 8th partnership announced this year and expands our geographic diversity and game publishing pipeline for 2022."

NoPowerup CEO, Mr. Hoàng Xuân Tùng, said: "We can't wait to get started working with ESGG's Game Kit-Idle platform and to realize the benefits that it brings to the development timeline. The new game we're working on together will leverage our vast experience and expertise in the Hyper Casual and Idle genres and build on our recent success in the idle space especially. This game will be a fun-filled idle adventure for the whole family!"

GameStop Frenzy Cools, E*Trade Considers Roaring Kitty Ban

GameStop (NYSE:GME) continues to cool following a trading frenzy that drove shares up by 75 percent between the close of trading last Friday (May 31) and the start of trading on Monday (June 3).

The brief rally, which took GameStop shares to US$40.09 on Monday morning, was sparked by a Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) post made late Sunday (June 2) by an account tied to the video game retailer's most prominent supporter, Keith Gill.

Gill, who ignited the meme stock craze in 2021 and is known as Roaring Kitty on other platforms, posted a screenshot on Reddit's Superstonk subreddit that shows a purported US$175 million position in GameStop shares and call options.

From emerging technologies to evolving regulations, the trajectory of iGaming has changed substantially in recent years as the market has experienced significant growth.
