Caesars Entertainment has signed a deal with Playson to integrate its titles onto the Caesars Palace Online Casino, Horseshoe Online Casino and Caesars Sportsbook & Casino platforms live in Ontario.
Ricardo Cornejo Rivas, Caesars Digital VP of Online Gaming, said: “The addition of Playson’s established portfolio of titles broadens the online casino offering for our players in Ontario.
“This partnership reflects our ongoing focus on advancing the online casino experience across our platforms.”
Customers will be able to access Playson titles, including 4 Pots Riches: Hold and Win, Thunder Coins: Hold and Win and Diamonds Power XXL: Hold and Win.
Ben Wood, Playson CCO, said: “Caesars Digital is a prestigious entertainment brand and this partnership reinforces our commitment to deliver player-favourite content to the world’s leading casino operators.
“We look forward to bringing our proven portfolio to an increased number of players across Ontario and continue strengthening our North American footprint.”
This is the first deal that has been announced since Caesars Entertainment entered into a $17.6bn definitive agreement to be acquired by Fertitta Entertainment.
The total figure includes an $11.9bn assumption of Caesars' total debts, alongside a $5.7bn acquisition fee. This tops the bid previously submitted by Icahn Enterprises.
Shareholders are set to receive $31 in cash per outstanding share, which is 49% premium over unaffected share prices as of 25 February 2026.
This agreement includes a “go-shop” period through 11 July 2026, where Caesars and its financial and legal advisors can negotiate alternative acquisition proposals from other companies, although the industry has been expecting this move from Fertitta for some time.
Playson first entered the Ontario market in 2022
