LAS VEGAS – February 2, 2024 – Light & Wonder, Inc. (NASDAQ and ASX: LNW) (together with its subsidiaries, “Light & Wonder,” “L&W” or the “Company”) today announced an exclusive aggregation arrangement to debut 1X2 Network's innovative content in the U.S., starting in Michigan. This agreement marks a significant entry for 1X2 into the vibrant U.S. market, leveraging Light & Wonder’s market leading aggregation platform.

1X2 Network, renowned for its diverse range of content including slots, virtual sports, crash games and instant win titles, from its 4 internal studios, 1X2gaming, Iron Dog Studio, Prospect Gaming and Ad Lunam, is set to launch on the U.S. gaming scene soon.

We are starting in Michigan, but work is already well underway in other states."
