“Japan is acting cautiously, after observing missteps from other jurisdictions. They are proceeding in the way that best suits them,” she adds.
The factor that led some operators to drop out of the licensing race could be the “uncertainty” created by regulations that “didn’t seem set in stone”, says Leckert.
“Some of them [investors] that were looking at Japan were looking at a big IR licence or nothing. With Tokyo and Yokohama being out of the mix, maybe some weren’t as interested anymore and decided to sit back, and wait and see how regulation and licensing shake out.”

A Bet365 spokesperson said the company was working to limit the number of job losses and support employees affected by the changes.
“We are committed to minimising the impact on our people and are exploring all avenues to reduce the number of redundancies,” the spokesperson said. “As a first step, we are planning a programme of voluntary redundancies.
“Our colleagues are our priority. We understand the concerns many will have. Impacted staff have been informed and are being fully supported throughout this process.”
About Threads
PopOK Gaming has added Piggy Dynasty to its slot catalog. It’s a release worth a look less for its wealth-and-prosperity theme than for how tightly it leans on a single multiplier mechanic inside a deliberately small format.
Piggy Dynasty is built on a compact 3×3 layout with 5 paylines, and it puts the focus on smooth gameplay with frequent win potential. That structure signals a studio that prioritizes quick, repeatable spins over sprawling reel setups. It’s a design choice that suits shorter mobile sessions, where players tend to want fast rounds rather than a slow build toward a single bonus.
The game is backed by a solid mathematical model, with a Return to Player (RTP) of 96.01%. That figure sits within the standard band for mainstream slots. In other words, this is steady core content rather than a high-volatility outlier.
