Supplier further expands in the US in the Mountain State.

Hacksaw Gaming has signed a distribution agreement with DraftKings in West Virginia.

Under the terms of the deal, three popular Hacksaw Gaming slots: Hand of Anubis, Hop’N’Pop, and Outlaws Inc, have been added to DraftKings' West Virginia-facing iCasino catalog. 

Other Hacksaw Gaming games include Wanted Dead or a Wild, Stack’em and Gladiator Legends, which are set to be integrated over the upcoming weeks.

Alongside partnering with DraftKings in West Virginia, Hacksaw Gaming also partnered with Rush Street Interactive in the Mountain State. Recently, the provider also received a license from West Virginia Lottery as well as landing itself a B2B gaming license in Sweden, launching with MaxBet in Romania, partnering with BetMGM in Ontario and more.

Hacksaw Gaming CEO Marcus Cordes said: “It’s been a hugely exciting couple of months on the US front. After receiving full regulatory approval last month, we’re thrilled to bolster our standing in West Virginia by adding another top-tier operator to our ranks.

“DraftKings is a name that needs no introduction in the world of iGaming, and we’ve nodoubt our top-shelf content will find scores of new casino fans through this partnership.”

In August, DraftKings Sportsbook celebrated its grand opening at The Queen Baton Rouge in Louisiana, which included a ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by former NFL quarterback Matt Flynn.

The operator giant also launched a daily show with former NFL player, Mike Golic and his son Mike Golic Jr to discuss sports, news, culture and personal stories from the hosts.
