Yggdrasil Expands UK Presence Through Partnership with The Rank Group
Yggdrasil has further solidified its position in the UK gaming market by forging a strategic partnership with The Rank Group, the operator behind Mecca Bingo and Grosvenor Casinos. This collaboration marks another significant milestone for Yggdrasil, which has been operating in the UK for nearly a decade.
Expanded Game Portfolio for UK Players
As part of this partnership, Rank’s UK-facing brands will now offer a selection of Yggdrasil’s most popular game titles. Players will gain access to engaging slots such as Max Elements GigaBlox, Trickstar Spins, and Golden Fish Tank. Additionally, the deal includes content from Yggdrasil’s YGG Masters studio partners, expanding the range of high-quality games available on Rank’s platforms.
Game Engagement Mechanics (GEMs) Integration
Yggdrasil’s signature Game Engagement Mechanics (GEMs), including MultiMax and DoubleMax, will also be incorporated into Rank’s offerings. These innovative mechanics are designed to enhance player experience and engagement, making the gaming sessions more immersive and rewarding.
A Step Forward in Yggdrasil’s Global Expansion
This partnership aligns with Yggdrasil’s broader expansion strategy, which has already seen the company secure a B2B gaming license from the Danish Gaming Authority, Spillemyndigheden, in 2025. Moreover, Yggdrasil has strengthened its foothold in North America by securing exclusive US and Ontario distribution rights through Aristocrat Interactive.
UK Licensing and Market Presence
Yggdrasil has been a licensed operator in the UK since 2016, when it received the necessary approval from the UK Gambling Commission. Over the years, the company has successfully built a reputation for delivering innovative and engaging gaming content to UK players.
Industry Leaders Weigh In
Jose Simon, Yggdrasil’s Chief Commercial Officer, emphasized the significance of strategic partnerships in driving success:“In any market, large or small, success is often influenced by the partners you choose to collaborate with. The Rank Group offers us an incredible opportunity to grow our market share in a competitive jurisdiction with a leading operator, and we couldn’t be more pleased with this partnership.”
Nolan Frendo, Casino Games Manager at The Rank Group, echoed similar sentiments:“Yggdrasil needs no introduction as a creator and distributor of truly great content, and we pride ourselves on being able to attract the best games from the biggest names in the industry for our players. Yggdrasil fits that bill, and this deal sees us bring a huge amount of established and proven content to our online casinos.”
With this collaboration, Yggdrasil continues to strengthen its footprint in the UK, further cementing its status as a key player in the online casino gaming industry.
OlakTHEPolak As for me, it's high time. The Internet is polluted with these gray sites. I don't want my kids to stumble upon casinos on TikTok!

thekidgamer52 PSG are really like a tank now. But finals are always nerves. Too often, the favorites fly from the "outsiders". I would take Inter with a handicap, the odds are good, the risk is justified.

This partnership is a smart move. Yggdrasil’s slots are some of the most innovative, and Rank Group’s platforms are among the best in the UK. A perfect match!
The inclusion of MultiMax and DoubleMax mechanics is what excites me the most. These features really enhance gameplay and make wins even more thrilling.
I love playing at Grosvenor Casinos, and adding Yggdrasil’s games will make the experience even better. Can’t wait to try Trickstar Spins!
Great news! Yggdrasil games have always been top-notch, and seeing them on Rank’s platforms is a huge win for UK players.
