Play’n GO’s Delaware Expansion Raises Questions for Players
Play'n GO's latest expansion into Delaware might sound like progress, but there's a darker side to the company's push into the U.S. market. While the Swedish game provider is increasing its reach with a sixth U.S. state license, the company is bringing along games with RTP (Return to Player) rates that are far from favourable to players, often falling below 80%. It's no secret that Play'n GO has been known for offering some of the most predatory RTP percentages in the industry, making this new venture into Delaware questionable for players who expect a fair shot at winning.
The company is partnering with Rush Street Interactive's BetRivers, the state's exclusive online gaming operator. While this may sound like an opportunity for Delaware players to access popular titles like Piggy Blitz, it's important to note that these games are hardly giving players an edge. In fact, the real winners here are Play'n GO and its partners, as they continue to expand their grip on the U.S. gambling market, knowing full well the odds are stacked against those who choose to play.
Play'n GO's U.S. growth strategy seems to prioritise market penetration over player well-being, as evidenced by the company's lack of transparency around RTP rates. While new staff and licensing approvals are celebrated, the truth is that players are not being given the chance to make informed decisions about the games they're playing. If the company is truly committed to providing a premium gaming experience, they would start by offering greater transparency and allowing players to see the RTP of each game.
Despite the claims of success and the ongoing partnerships with major operators like BetMGM and DraftKings, the company's push into new regulated markets like Delaware raises serious concerns. Are these expansions truly benefiting players, or are they simply a way for Play'n GO to keep capitalising on a system designed to favor the house? If the company truly cares about U.S. players, it's time for them to rethink their approach and ensure that gambling remains a fair form of entertainment—not a one-sided game where the odds are stacked against the player.

Congrats to Play’n GO for yet another expansion, but it’s disappointing to see a provider thriving on games with such low RTP. This feels more like a gamble for the players.
Glad to see more slots hitting the U.S., but Play’n GO’s RTP feels like a scam waiting to happen. Transparency is key—let the players see those odds!
Play’n GO expanding yet again, but with their poor RTPs, it’s more of a 'win for them' than a win for players. Delaware residents, beware!
Another state gets flooded with Play’n GO slots. Too bad the RTP is hardly ever player-friendly, with some games barely hitting 80%. Hope they reconsider giving players more control over it.
