Spearhead Studios is a Marbella‑based iGaming development studio wholly owned by EveryMatrix, a leading B2B iGaming platform provider. The studio was established in 2019 after EveryMatrix acquired an experienced games team from Gaming Innovation Group (GiG) and rebranded it as Spearhead Studios. It specialises in creating premium, mobile‑optimised HTML5 video slots, table games and customisable casino content for regulated markets worldwide. The studio’s in‑house capabilities cover the full game lifecycle – from concept design and JavaScript development to digital art, animation, UI/UX design, audio production, QA testing, certification and localisation. Spearhead Studios was created to extend EveryMatrix’s commercial offering into the game‑development vertical, leveraging strong synergies with EveryMatrix’s flagship CasinoEngine product. The team’s debut title, Book of Souls, notched over 20 million game rounds in its first ten months, establishing Spearhead as a rising force in the crowded online slots space. Since then, the studio has steadily expanded its game portfolio and distribution network, partnering with major aggregators and operators to bring its content to multiple jurisdictions.

Products and Distribution

The studio’s product line consists primarily of video slots such as Book of Souls, Sword of Destiny, Fortune Factory, and Lucha Legends, as well as classic table games like European Blackjack and European Roulette. All games are built in HTML5 for seamless desktop and mobile play. Spearhead does not operate its own distribution platform; instead, it relies on third‑party aggregators. Its content is available through EveryMatrix’s CasinoEngine, SoftSwiss Game Aggregator, SoftGamings, and Golden Matrix Group, reaching a wide network of operators without direct account management.

Market Position and Licensing

Spearhead competes in the highly competitive iGaming content market by delivering high‑quality, locally relevant games for regulated markets. The studio is fully licensed by the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) and its games are certified for multiple other jurisdictions including the UK, Romania, and several European and Latin American markets. This regulatory footprint allows the studio to serve operators in key regulated regions.

Team and Leadership

The studio operates with a compact, agile team; exact headcount is not publicly disclosed but job listings and public statements suggest a range of 20–50 employees covering game design, development, art, QA, and project management. Mathias Larsson, former Managing Director at GiG Games, serves as Managing Director of Spearhead Studios, leading the studio with a lean management structure under EveryMatrix’s group oversight.
