Odobo Announces HTML5 Games With bet365
GIBRALTAR, October 31, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Odobo, the world's only dedicated HTML5 games development program and content
marketplace for the regulated gambling industry, today announces its inaugural partnership
with one of the world's largest online gambling groups, bet365. bet365 has signed-up to
distribute a selection of new games to millions of players. Each new game is produced by
experienced game development studios using Odobo's unique Game Development Kit (GDK).
Since integrating the Odobo platform, bet365 is already offering two new game titles,
The Legend of Olympus[1] and Baccpo[2], both of which have been created by leading
developers and produced using the latest HTML5 technologies and practices. Games produced
using HTML5 are delivered via the player's browser ensuring they have advanced
compatibility and support play on iOS, Android and Windows - desktops, tablets and
mobiles. The Odobo Marketplace operates as a new B2B "app store" for the gambling
industry, within which gaming operators browse, license, configure and install new games
content produced by participating developers as it becomes available.
Many gaming operators have responded to the opportunity to distribute HTML5 games
content from a wider variety of talented game developers on the Odobo platform. This model
therefore opens a new business opportunity for game developers worldwide to produce games
for the US$35bn/GBPGBP23bn* global online gambling industry. The partnership is beneficial
to the game developers who have the potential to reach a vast, existing audience of keen
gamers and receive royalties from both game play and referrals. Odobo also provides
support to ensure all games receive rigorous pre-testing and meet regulatory criteria.
Odobo founder and CEO, Ashley Lang, stated, "This announcement is the culmination of
many months of hard work from the teams at Odobo and bet365. Together, we share a
commitment to providing players with fresh and exciting content and with such a vast
player community, we are delighted to announce bet365 as our inaugural partnership. This
is a very important milestone for Odobo and in bet365 we have secured a premier global
partner".
All existing and upcoming games will be offered for play in multiple languages and
currencies. Odobo games can be played for free worldwide on Odobo Play (
http://www.odoboplay.com) and players in supported markets can play the bet365 games
selection on their tablet or mobile, by clicking through from Odobo Play.

distribution for real-money games content. This is delivered via a network of the leading
licensed and regulated gaming operators, including lotteries, across international gaming
markets.
