Hacksaw Ventures Invests in Jinx Gaming to Grow OpenRGS Platform and Develop New Slot Games
Hacksaw Ventures has strengthened its investment strategy with a minority stake in Jinx Gaming, reinforcing collaboration within the OpenRGS platform and supporting the growth of emerging studios in the iGaming sector.
Strategic Investment Strengthens Partnership
Hacksaw Ventures, the investment arm of Hacksaw Gaming, has entered into an agreement to invest in Jinx Gaming and become a minority shareholder in the studio. Hacksaw Ventures focuses on supporting early-stage companies within the iGaming ecosystem by providing capital, industry expertise, and strategic guidance to help promising studios scale their operations.
Hacksaw Gaming, the parent company behind the initiative, is a global iGaming content and technology provider known for developing online casino games and platform infrastructure used by operators and partner studios. The investment represents a strategic step in strengthening the relationship between the two companies while deepening their collaboration through the OpenRGS platform.
The move reflects Hacksaw’s broader strategy of expanding its partner studio network while supporting innovative developers within its technology ecosystem. The company has also been strengthening its global distribution through operator partnerships, including launching its slot titles with Mozzartbet in Romania.
Jinx Gaming’s Entry into the OpenRGS Ecosystem
Jinx Gaming joined the OpenRGS ecosystem in December with the launch of its debut title, Dead Headz. The studio’s entry marked the beginning of its collaboration with Hacksaw Gaming’s platform technology, which enables partner studios to develop and distribute games through the OpenRGS network.
OpenRGS is Hacksaw Gaming’s remote game server platform that allows independent studios to build, manage, and distribute casino games using Hacksaw’s technology framework. The platform enables third-party developers to release games while maintaining their own creative identity, helping them reach operators through Hacksaw’s existing distribution network.
Since joining the platform, Jinx Gaming has focused on building its development roadmap while integrating with Hacksaw’s tools and platform infrastructure. The partnership provides the studio with access to technology support, distribution channels, and industry expertise as it continues to expand its portfolio.
Supporting Early-Stage Studios Through Hacksaw Ventures
Hacksaw Ventures focuses on identifying early-stage companies and entrepreneurs with strong development potential across the iGaming industry. Through targeted investments, the company provides financial backing alongside operational guidance to help partner studios grow and deliver new content.
By investing in studios connected to the OpenRGS platform, Hacksaw Ventures aims to strengthen its broader content ecosystem while encouraging innovation in slot game development. Expanding the OpenRGS studio network also increases the pipeline of new games that can be delivered to operators worldwide.
Fran Mifsud highlighted Jinx Gaming’s creative direction as a key factor behind the investment. He noted that the partnership will support the studio’s development roadmap while strengthening its integration within the OpenRGS ecosystem.
Growth Plans and Future Collaboration
Reu Wilde described the investment as an important milestone for the studio’s growth. According to Wilde, the partnership with Hacksaw will help the company expand its development capacity and accelerate the creation of new slot titles.
The agreement also includes an option for Hacksaw Ventures to increase its ownership stake in Jinx Gaming over time. This structure allows both companies to expand their collaboration as the studio continues to develop new content.
As the partnership evolves, Hacksaw Gaming and Jinx Gaming aim to increase production and release additional titles through the OpenRGS platform. The continued expansion of the OpenRGS ecosystem is expected to strengthen Hacksaw’s studio network and support the delivery of new slot content to operators across the global iGaming market.
