The Las Vegas-based Golden Matrix Group’s subsidiary Expanse Studios is making waves in the US gaming market with the release of Beach Penalties, its debut social casino game.

On the heels of Beach Penalties’ release, Expanse Studios Chief Executive Officer Damjan Stamenkovic highlighted the company’s growth ambitions in the social gaming space.

For Expanse Studios, venturing into social gaming unlocks new opportunities, new audiences, and a chance to showcase their expertise in the ever-growing market.

This is not the only recent launch from a Nevada-headquartered developer, as early this month 10 Ten Gaming released Smiles Casino, a new social casino platform.

Key takeaways

  • Expanse Studios releases its first social casino game, Beach Penalties.
  • The social gaming market is expected to reach $39.95 billion by 2032, driven by demand for casual online entertainment.
  • The US social casino market sees increased competition with recent launches from Expanse Studios (Beach Penalties), 10 Ten Gaming (Smiles Casino), and Thunderkick.

What to expect from Expanse Studios’ Beach Penalties

The Beach Penalties is a soccer game where you take penalties on a beach. You try to score, the goalie attempts to stop you, and if you win, you get prizes.

Beach Penalties lets you personalize your gaming experience with customizable options. Players can tweak settings to suit their style, enjoy engaging animations, and progress through various levels. Whether you are casual or hardcore, the game adapts.

The game is loaded with features, including jackpots and competitive tournaments. Plus, new players can dive right in with a helpful tutorial that gets them up to speed quickly.

Beach Penalties blends casual gameplay with strategic depth.

What’s more, you can tweak the RTP (96.5%-97.5%) and volatility to fit your playstyle. As you progress, odds and rewards escalate, and you can cash out whenever.

In a Golden Matrix Group press release, Stamenkovic said: “The launch of Beach Penalties is an exciting development for Expanse Studios as we enter the social gaming market for the first time.

Social casino games represent a significant opportunity for growth, and Beach Penalties allows us to showcase our ability to create engaging, accessible content that resonates with a wide audience.

We look forward to further expanding our social casino offerings and pursuing new opportunities in this thriving market.”

US social casino market is primed for rapid growth

Social gaming’s becoming a big deal, and Expanse Studios is dipping its toes into social casino gaming. The timing couldn’t be better.

Industry experts project this market will skyrocket to $39.95 billion by 2032, with the global social gaming space growing at a healthy 5.38% clip. The appeal is clear for players, especially younger generations, who want relaxing entertainment.

Expanse Studios crafts engaging online casino and social casino games including online slots, table games and crash games.

Their reach extends to over 50 regulated markets, where they supply top-tier content to operators, fuelling global gaming growth.

In May, fresh faces entered the US social casino scene. Thunderkick, a Swedish game studio, partnered with High 5 Casino to bring its games to American shores.

Some of the games it brought to the US include:

  • Bones & Bounty
  • Hellapenos
  • Midas Golden Touch
  • Shifting Seas
