DraftKings and Hacksaw Gaming extend partnership to New Jersey

December 1, 2023

The brands have already launched in West Virginia, and Hacksaw Gaming has its sights on Pennsylvania for the supplier's next US license.

DraftKings has partnered with Hacksaw Gaming in New Jersey, after beginning a relationship around this time in 2022. The partners also recently launched together in West Virginia in September this year.

Just last week, Hacksaw Gaming gained a license in New Jersey, its second in the US market, and the studio is also planning to expand into Pennsylvania, pending regulatory approval. The company is headquartered in Zebbug, Malta.

Now, Hacksaw Gaming and DraftKings will roll out games including slots like Chaos Crew and OmNom, as well as Dare2Win titles like Mines and Boxes. For the next two weeks, DraftKings Casino will brand Hacksaw Gaming’s first 10 games with exclusivity.

Marcus Cordes, Hacksaw Gaming CEO, said, “Having secured such a significant presence in the US in 2023 is something we are incredibly proud of. Our hard work takes form in our ever-increasing footprint.”

DraftKings has completed a significant number of launches this quarter, as the brand announced a merchandise collaboration with the NBA; opened a flagship TPC sportsbook as a partner of the PGA Tour in Arizona; teamed up with Maine’s Passamaquoddy Tribe to launch its sportsbook as soon as sports betting went live in the state; and announced a retail sportsbook in the works at Golden Nugget Biloxi in Mississippi.

DraftKings also most recently began its Holidays on The House promotion, which lasts until January 2 and gives players the chance to win a share of over $5m in online casino credits in five states
