Switch Studios — Slots, Games and Provider Overview

Switch Studios was founded in 2017 in Ipswich, United Kingdom. In an official Games Global interview, head of studio Tom David explained that the team was created to build a “best of breed” suite of table games. In 2018 the studio released its first title under the simple name Roulette. Roulette also shaped the visual identity of the brand: the Switch logo combines elements of a power button and a roulette wheel.

The first commercial phase was closely tied to Microgaming. In November 2018, Microgaming announced Switch Studios as an independent partner studio developing a new generation of table games on an exclusive basis. The debut Roulette featured a 3D wheel, racetrack betting, favourites, special bets and portrait/landscape adaptation for mobile devices. The catalogue then expanded quickly into blackjack, baccarat, dice and card formats.

In May 2022, Games Global completed its acquisition of Microgaming’s distribution business, online games catalogue, jackpot networks and interests in several studios. Switch Studios subsequently became part of Games Global’s exclusive studio network. Games Global still lists Switch among its exclusive studio brands, with the games primarily distributed through that ecosystem.

Switch Studios is not an online casino for end users. The studio develops RNG games and game mechanics, while Games Global handles distribution. Registration, deposits, withdrawals, KYC, bonuses and customer support belong to the individual casino operator. A supplier licence or regulatory status therefore does not replace the need to check the casino itself.

Digital RNG table games remain the core of Switch Studios. The current Games Global Table Games section includes Low Stakes Roulette, Roulette Mega Moolah, European Roulette, Multifire Roulette, Extreme Multifire Roulette, 9 Pots of Gold Roulette, Multihand Classic Blackjack, Premier Blackjack with Side Bets, European Blackjack, Three Wheel Roulette, Baccarat, Sic Bo and Wheel of Winners.

• Roulette. Classic single-zero versions, Multifire mechanics, Three Wheel Roulette, Low Stakes Roulette, branded variants and Roulette Mega Moolah.
• Blackjack. Classic, European, Premier and Multihand versions, plus numerous side-bet variants with additional rules.
• Baccarat and Sic Bo. RNG versions of traditional casino table games without a live dealer.
• Video Poker. In 2024 the studio released Playboy Jacks or Better Video Poker and Cards of Venus Aces and Faces.
• Casual / hybrid. Flippin’ Awesome, Land & Win, Wheel of Winners and other products that mix table-game concepts with casual or slot-style elements.
• Slots and crash. Gridlock Gem Blast became the studio’s first full slot release, while Runaway Chicken was its first crash project.

This distinction matters for search intent: Switch Studios should not be described as a conventional slot provider. Roulette and blackjack remain the most characteristic parts of the brand, although by 2025 the studio had deliberately moved into adjacent categories. “Switch Studios games” is therefore a broader and more accurate intent than “Switch Studios slots” alone.

Roulette is the original and most important product line in the Switch Studios catalogue. The first 2018 title used a single-zero European wheel, realistic 3D physics, a racetrack layout and saved favourite bets. The studio later experimented with multiple wheels, multipliers, jackpot networks and branded mechanics.

Three Wheel Roulette lets players bet on three independent roulette wheels within one session. The underlying logic remains European single-zero roulette, but three outcomes change the pace and bet structure. Multifire Roulette and Extreme Multifire Roulette add random multipliers to selected numbers, creating a more volatile version of standard roulette.

Low Stakes Roulette keeps the classic European format and is designed around a low entry stake. Specialist game databases commonly list an RTP of 97.30%, in line with the standard mathematical return of single-zero roulette under normal payouts. Exact betting limits can vary by version and operator, so they should be checked inside the live game client.

Roulette Mega Moolah combines roulette with the Mega Moolah jackpot network. This does not automatically make the base roulette bet more favourable: the progressive jackpot adds a separate prize layer with its own mathematics. Games Global continues to show the title among Switch Studios’ main progressive/table products in 2026.

A separate branch uses a roulette-style layout as the foundation for hybrid games. In 9 Masks of Fire Land & Win, the 1–36 number board is paired with a separate reel, random multipliers and free plays. Games Global stated a maximum potential of up to 4,500x in 2024. This is not conventional roulette, but a hybrid/casual product built around the familiar geometry of a roulette table.

Blackjack became the studio’s second major category after Roulette. Early releases included Classic Blackjack, European Blackjack, Vegas Strip and other traditional rule sets. Switch Studios later expanded heavily into side bets, multihand play and special bonus mechanics, turning the core card game into a large family of variants.

European Blackjack is commonly listed in specialist databases with a theoretical RTP of about 99.60% when played with the relevant rules and correct strategy. Perfect Strategy Blackjack is shown at roughly 99.91% in game catalogues. These values cannot be applied to every Switch Studios blackjack title: deck count, surrender, split/double rules and side bets all change the mathematical return.

ReDeal Blackjack, released in 2022, allows selected parts of the deal to be redealt up to five times, including the player’s hand, the dealer’s hand or the last card. From 2023 to 2025 the studio continued to develop its side-bet approach through releases such as Classic Blackjack Side Bet Suite, Perfect-11, Sweetheart 16, Noble Diamonds, Ten-20, Poker Side Bets and Multi Hand Blackjack Ten Side Bets.

Side bets normally have their own paytables and RTP values separate from the main blackjack wager. A high theoretical return for the base game does not mean every extra bet has the same RTP. When comparing Switch Studios blackjack versions, the rules and paytable for each side bet matter more than a single headline percentage.

From 2023–2024, Switch Studios expanded noticeably beyond classic table games. Games Global linked this strategy to growing interest in casual and non-traditional game formats. One of the key concepts was Land & Win, used in 9 Pots of Gold Land & Win and 9 Masks of Fire Land & Win.

Land & Win uses a familiar 1–36 numbered board together with a separate slot-style reel. Players select numbers, after which the reel can add multipliers, modifiers and free plays. In 9 Masks of Fire Land & Win, individual multipliers can be boosted, while the number of selected positions affects the volatility profile. It is a hybrid rather than ordinary RNG roulette or a standard video slot.

In February 2025, Flippin’ Awesome Shields of Asgard introduced a casual coin-flip format. Before a round, players can choose how many shields are flipped and how many successful outcomes are required, with probabilities and potential payout shown before the bet. The series continued in July with Flippin’ Awesome Gold Chase, where risk can also be adjusted through the number of coins and the target result.

On 7 April 2025, Gridlock Gem Blast became the first officially announced Switch Studios slot release. Games Global described it as a cluster-based slot with cascading reactions and a bonus round. That distinction is important because third-party pages had often labelled the whole Switch catalogue as “slots” even while the studio’s own profile described the team as a developer of RNG table and non-slot games.

On 20 October 2025, the studio released Runaway Chicken, its first crash game. The player guides a chicken across nine roads over three levels while the potential reward rises with progress. The release shows that Switch Studios now works not only with table games but also with short, risk-driven formats.

There is no single universal Switch Studios RTP. Roulette return depends on wheel type and additional features, blackjack depends on rules and strategy, video poker depends on the paytable, and hybrid or casual games use their own models. A supposed “average Switch Studios RTP” would therefore be of limited value and potentially misleading.

The values for classic roulette variants are directly linked to the wheel structure: a European single-zero wheel has a 2.70% house edge, while American double-zero roulette has a 5.26% house edge. Branded roulette with multipliers, jackpots or extra features can use a different payout structure, so not every title within the category should be treated as mathematically identical.

Blackjack is even more sensitive to rule details. RTP normally assumes optimal or near-optimal strategy, while side bets are calculated separately. For example, a label such as “European Blackjack 99.60%” does not mean Sweetheart 16, Perfect-11 or Poker Side Bets share that percentage. Correct comparison requires the rules and paytable inside the exact game version.

For some 2025 casual and slot releases, RTP values are published by independent game databases rather than a single Games Global technical catalogue. The figures above are therefore limited to values that are consistently repeated in current sources, with the exact version still needing to be checked before play.

Mobile interface design has been part of Switch Studios’ approach from the beginning. The first Roulette in 2018 already supported dynamic portrait and landscape layouts, while later releases continued the same browser-first model. Current Games Global content is built for HTML5 and is delivered to desktop and mobile devices through operator lobbies.

Switch Studios demo games are not concentrated in one universal public studio hub. Depending on the title, free-play versions can appear through Games Global integrations, partner platforms and third-party demo catalogues. In 2026, demo listings still include games such as Low Stakes Roulette, Roulette Mega Moolah, Immortal Romance Roulette and modern blackjack variants. Availability at a particular casino can depend on the operator and jurisdiction.

The newer stage of the portfolio includes 2025 releases such as Wheel of Winners Link&Win, Flippin’ Awesome Shields of Asgard, Gridlock Gem Blast, Flippin’ Awesome Gold Chase, Runaway Chicken and Multi Hand Blackjack Ten Side Bets. At the time of this localization check, the official Games Global material did not provide a sufficiently clear Switch-specific 2026 release that could safely be presented as the studio’s “latest 2026 game”. The page therefore avoids inventing a freshness claim.

Language options, currencies, stake limits and the availability of individual side bets can vary by operator build and jurisdiction. They should be checked in the exact version offered by the casino rather than assumed for the entire Switch Studios catalogue.

Switch Studios is closely tied to Games Global at brand and distribution level. The current Games Global studio profile lists Switch as an exclusive studio, while trademark records for SWITCH STUDIOS point to Games Global Operations Limited. This helps explain why regulatory information is normally published at Games Global company level rather than under the studio brand itself.

Games Global Operations Limited holds active UK Gambling Commission account number 58841. The register lists Gambling Software Remote / Game Host (Casino) Remote licence 058841-R-334504-005, effective from 15 February 2022. This is a supplier/distributor licence and is not the licence of an individual online casino.

Games Global’s licences page also lists Prima Networks Limited (C46476), licensed by the Malta Gaming Authority for Type 1 Gaming Services under MGA/CRP/926/2021. That MGA licence should not be labelled as a standalone “Switch Studios licence”, because it belongs to a different company in the Games Global structure.

No separate UKGC or MGA account under the Switch Studios brand itself was confirmed in the primary registers used for the approved source. The accurate formulation is that Switch Studios operates as an exclusive studio within Games Global’s regulated distribution ecosystem, while specific licences remain attached to Games Global Operations Limited or Prima Networks Limited.

Market availability should be checked separately for the player’s jurisdiction and casino. The presence of a supplier licence does not by itself establish that every Switch Studios title is permitted or offered in every market.
