Key Takeaways
- Pragmatic Play presents a multi-vertical roadmap for 2026 at ICE Barcelona.
- New slots, live casino tables, arcade titles and latest Drops & Wins season on show.
- Expanding localisation, Smart Studio tech and a new studio in Brazil.
A Show-Stopping Presence at ICE Barcelona
Pragmatic Play is planning one of its most ambitious exhibition set-ups to date at ICE Barcelona. It’s using a large, multi-stand layout to reflect the scale of its portfolio. The supplier says its space will feature more than 100 screens, immersive branding and a central attraction designed to draw footfall throughout the three-day event.
The approach signals confidence following a strong 2025. Pragmatic Play is now positioning itself as a truly multi-vertical provider rather than a slots-first studio. The stand is expected to act as both a showcase and a meeting hub for existing partners and prospective operators.
New Games and a Broader Product Roadmap
Slots will continue to play a leading role, with several new and established titles being showcased as part of the 2026 roadmap. Rather than focusing on a single mechanic or franchise, Pragmatic Play is showing off its variety. The brand is combining high-volatility releases with familiar series that have already proven their appeal across regulated markets.
The supplier will also demo new live casino formats and arcade-style games. This underlines its strategy of cross-selling multiple verticals through a single integration. The latest iteration of Drops & Wins will be positioned as a key retention tool. This will reinforce Pragmatic Play’s emphasis on promotional mechanics that operators can deploy at scale.
Here are some games expected to be seen at ICE Barcelona:

Live Casino Expansion and Localisation Strategy
Live casino remains a major growth driver for Pragmatic Play. This is particularly important as operators look for differentiated, branded table experiences. Over the past year, the company has increased its live output significantly. Localised tables are playing an increasingly important part in regional strategies.
The planned launch of a new live studio in Brazil in 2026 reflects that focus. It also points to longer-term ambitions in Latin America, where locally hosted content and culturally tailored presentation are becoming competitive requirements rather than optional extras.
Engagements, Partnerships and Operator Value
Pragmatic Play is also using ICE Barcelona to reinforce its wider brand positioning. On-site activations and appearances, including a Q&A session with Clarence Seedorf, will support engagement rather than distract from the commercial message.
From an operator perspective, the focus is firmly on scalability and flexibility. By presenting slots, live casino, arcade titles and sportsbook content together, Pragmatic Play is making the case for consolidated partnerships. It’s all about simplifying content delivery while broadening player appeal this year.
