Evoplay expands into Croatia through partnership with Hrvatska Lutrija

Strengthening presence in regulated markets

This partnership marks a notable development in Evoplay’s European expansion strategy. By launching on Cro Casino, the online brand of Hrvatska Lutrija, Evoplay gains exposure through the country’s only state-authorised lottery operator. The move aligns with the studio’s broader goal of delivering certified, high-quality content in regulated jurisdictions.

Ihor Zarechnyi, Chief Commercial Officer at Evoplay, emphasised the value of the partnership:

“Partnering with Hrvatska Lutrija marks a key milestone in our expansion across Europe. As Croatia’s national lottery operator, Hrvatska Lutrija has a strong and established brand, and offers us a trusted platform to bring our games to a wider audience. “We’re excited to launch with Cro Casino and deliver a range of engaging titles to players across the country.”

Launch through Intralot’s platform

The game integration has been enabled through Intralot SA, Hrvatska Lutrija’s long-standing technology partner. Evoplay’s content has been added to Intralot’s Lotos X Omni platform and made available via Bragg Hub’s aggregation system. Intralot currently operates in 39 regulated markets worldwide, ensuring a stable and compliant infrastructure for the rollout.

Ignacije Čutura, Chief Executive Officer at Hrvatska Lutrija, said:

“We’re delighted to partner with Evoplay and bring their innovative content to our players through Cro Casino. Their engaging titles align well with our focus on delivering high-quality, entertaining experiences. This collaboration marks an exciting step in strengthening our online offering and continuing to grow within Croatia’s regulated market.”

Among the 12 games now available to Croatian players is Penalty Shoot-out, Evoplay’s football-themed instant game, which has proven popular across multiple international markets for its simplicity and replay value. Additional releases are expected to be added in the coming months.
