Most recently, SOFTSWISS has boosted their gaming portfolio thanks to the content deal with Real Dealer Studio.

Some of their best-performing slots, including Real Roulette and Real Baccarat series will become available to SOFTSWISS players.

Also, the company has signed a Push Gaming agreement, extending their presence in the international markets thanks to the reach the Curacao-licensed brand has.
