LARO77 Pragmatic Play Games — Studio, Licences & Titles

This page covers Pragmatic Play the studio and not any operator that carries it. Drawn from the company’s own material and from public regulator records, this is what follows.

Who Pragmatic Play is

A catalogue size is not published. Title totals are absent from what the studio states.

Titles covered on this site

This site has its own page for 6 Pragmatic Play titles: Gates of Olympus 1000, Sweet Bonanza 1000, The Dog House, Wolf Gold, Big Bass Bonanza, Big Bass Splash.

Among the titles Pragmatic Play itself highlights on its own pages are Sweet Bonanza, Gates of Olympus, The Dog House, Wolf Gold, Sugar Rush. That amounts to a studio advertising its own catalogue. Which of them a casino carries is left unsaid, and so is which ones have pages here.

Licences the studio holds

Recorded licences for Pragmatic Play: Malta Gaming Authority, UK Gambling Commission, PAGCOR, the last one historical and no longer current. An operator licence and a studio licence are different things: the studio licence covers the company that makes the games and not the casino offering them, so a player’s recourse goes through the operator’s regulator, not the studio’s.

• Malta Gaming Authority — Registered against Pragmatic Solutions MT Limited, licence MGA/B2B/619/2018 is the relevant permit. On the MGA’s own verification portal, the B2B Critical Supply Licence in the casino vertical reads Licensed, and that is the source used, not Pragmatic’s site.
• UK Gambling Commission — Confirmation of an active licence sits on the UKGC public register, where Pragmatic Play (Gibraltar) Limited appears under account 56015 as licence 056015-R-332216-005.
• PAGCOR — historical, and no longer current — September 2016 is when Pragmatic Play announced its PAGCOR offshore gaming licence. PAGCOR confirmed the cancellation of all offshore licences, which were required to expire by 31 December 2024, after the Philippines abolished the whole framework. Still online and still quoted as current, the 2016 announcement has not aged out of circulation. It is not.

Pragmatic Play in the Philippine market

That regime was abolished with effect from the end of 2024, although a PAGCOR offshore licence had been held since 2016. With no statement from Pragmatic on its current Philippine status, this site treats the matter as unresolved and does not repeat the 2016 announcement.

Whether Pragmatic Play publishes RTP

On its own game pages Pragmatic Play gives a return-to-player figure, so any RTP quoted for one of its titles leads back to the studio instead of an aggregator.

A single RTP per title appears on Pragmatic’s game pages, and it represents the upper end of a set. The lower configurations go undisclosed on Pragmatic’s pages, even though independent records show that most titles ship in three operator-selectable configurations, Gates of Olympus 1000 at 96.50 / 95.51 / 94.50 per cent and Sweet Bonanza 1000 at 96.53 / 95.52 / 94.51. A given operator is not necessarily running the configuration behind a quoted Pragmatic RTP, since that figure is the best one available.

This matters more than it sounds. Where a return-to-player figure has no primary source, only recycled between comparison sites, it tells you nothing; the figure counts for as much as where it came from.
