Black Cat Games is thrilled to announce its official partnership with Yggdrasil Gaming as a new member of the renowned YGG Masters program. This collaboration marks a significant milestone for Black Cat Games, a UK-based studio dedicated to developing innovative front-end gambling games, as it joins forces with one of the iGaming industry’s leading content providers to deliver cutting-edge gaming experiences to a global audience.
