Operators may now use this new genre to better engage with their audiences and host tournaments on the popular game genre that has been steadily building momentum. The Tournament Tool by SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator has proven a powerful solution for boosting player engagement and retention, driving strong results across the board.

Crash games, for their part, make an ideal addition to the growing Tournament Tool ecosystem, as they offer a simple, quick, and highly rewarding gameplay. SOFTSWISS has once again leveraged its bird's eye view of the industry to crunch the numbers and check how popular crash games are in the first place.

SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator Head Tatyana Kaminskaya has welcomed this new opportunity, arguing that adding crash games into tournaments was the right move, as it helps boost both social interaction and gamification trends within the iGaming sector, which are both powerful ways to tread the needle and move it forward. She added:

"Now, any game can become social and even more engaging as players can compete in tournaments across different game categories. The combination of tournaments with crash games, live games, and slots is truly winning – it enhances player experience and boosts casino performance."

According to SOFTSWISS, these games tend to be quite popular in regions such as Europe and Latin America. For example, Aviator, the world’s leading crash game, was ranked as one of the top five games globally and in Latin America, making the launch of the crash game tournament a strategic and well-thought-out move.

Tournaments have a strong impact on player-spending and engagement

Yet, crash games aren’t yet dominating and they are not the most played titles. SOFTSWISS’ analysis established that as of Q22024, crash games in Latin America accounted for 3.9% of all casino games on offer, but for less than 1% of all games in Europe.

The Tournament Tool itself is a powerful business and player solution that benefits both parties.

Players feel more involved and happier to compete in the leaderboards, whereas operators that host events using the tool usually see an increase in spending by 4.23% during tournament periods. Spending further raises to 9.01% in the post-tournament cooldown, SOFTSWISS can reveal. Crash games have been building their footprint in both Latin America, with a recent partnership between Betano and BetGames and Africa where Incentive Games teamed up with 888Africa to launch more of this genre’s titles.
