Network Denmark and ELK Studios have announced a new partnership to see the Scandinavian country host various new online casino games.

ELK Studios was founded in 2013 and has risen to prominence in the iGaming industry throughout the previous decade. Some of its highest-profile online casino games include Tinkerbot, Shadow Shifter, Catemple, Ryze, Pirots, Cluster Kingdom, Slurpy, Squeeze, Thoro, Man vs Gator, and Ashoka Eternal.

Two of ELK Studios’ popular games, Metropolis 3, Cygnus 2, and Hidden, are now available to play in Denmark through NetBet, and more are expected to follow in the ongoing rollout.

In a press release, Claudia Georgevici, NetBet Denmark’s PR manager, said: “ELK Studios have demonstrated their expertise and innovation at making casino titles, with numerous award wins and nominations to their name. This makes them an ideal partner for NetBet, as we are always on the lookout for high-quality games to offer our players.”

Earlier in January 2025, new policies were passed in Denmark with updated iGaming and betting certification rules. The latest changes will require game suppliers in the region to file their own compliance papers and have a six-month window to complete the transition. They go into effect on July 1, 2025. The Spillemyndigheden (Danish Gambling Authority under the Ministry of Taxation) has outlined seven forms of certification, which will be reviewed every 12 months with game suppliers and license holders liable for any changes.

It’s been a big year for the Scandinavian country of Denmark in the online casino industry. NetBet Denmark was only launched in February 2024, less than a year ago, and already, there are high-profile partnerships, such as the new agreement with ELK Studios, that are diversifying the iGaming options in the region. The company joins the likes of Push Gaming, renowned for its titles like The Grand Show, Big Man-Book, Razor Ways, Cats of Olympuss, Jaguar Drop, and Mystery of the Nile, among others.
