Encore Boston Harbor, operated by Wynn Resorts, generated the highest revenue of any Massachusetts property throughout September 2025 after reporting $59.1m to the MGC, equating to an increase of 2.5%.

MGM Springfield reported a September 2025 slot machine revenue of $18m, rising 7.3%, while table games generated nearly $4.3m for an increase of 2.5%.

On September 12, Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell filed a lawsuit against predictions markets platform KalshiEX in Suffolk Superior Court, accusing Kalshi of failing to follow state law which governs sports betting, such as licensure by the MGC, while offering "illegal and unsafe sports betting."
Campbell went on to accuse Kalshi of using an online exchange platform to offer sports wagering to consumers under the "guise of sports events contracts," allowing bettors to select a "yes" or "no" option depending on the likelihood of an event to occur.
The Attorney General's Office also stated Kalshi has "neither applied for nor received" a sports wagering license from the MGC, as required by state law.
The MGC recently held a public meeting to address the next steps for players receiving betting limits from sports betting operators on October 1
