Who PG Soft is
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Studio | PG Soft |
| Founded | 2015 |
| Headquarters | Valletta, Malta |
| Specialisms | slots |
| Catalogue size | Not published |
| Publishes RTP | Yes |
A catalogue size is not published. Nowhere does the studio give a figure for how many titles it has.
Whether PG Soft publishes RTP
You can trace an RTP quoted for one of its titles straight to the studio, not an aggregator, because PG Soft puts a return-to-player figure on its own game pages.
On the page a visitor sees, the RTP field shows a blank dash; PG Soft does publish the figure in its game data, which the server sends with the page. Since every value read in that way matched independent consensus for the same title, the numbers can be treated as real. Say ‘per PG Soft’s published game data’ and not ‘as shown on PG Soft’s page’; a reader who checks by eye will find only a dash.
This matters more than it sounds. Only as reliable as its source is a return-to-player figure, and evidence is not what a number repeated between comparison sites with no primary source amounts to.
Titles covered on this site
This site has its own page for 2 PG Soft titles: Wild Bandito, Treasures of Aztec.
On its own pages, PG Soft itself highlights Mahjong Ways 2, Fortune Tiger, Fortune Ox, Lucky Neko, Wild Bandito. Here the studio is advertising its own catalogue. Which casino carries any of them is left unsaid, and so is which have pages here.
Licences the studio holds
PG Soft is recorded as holding: Malta Gaming Authority, UK Gambling Commission and Gibraltar, the entries on PG Soft’s list. Covering the company that makes the games and not the casino offering them, a studio licence differs from an operator licence, and a player’s recourse runs through the operator’s regulator instead of the studio’s.
- Malta Gaming Authority — Licensee: Pocket Games Software Limited (C 76195), under reference MGA/B2B/435/2017. Search the MGA’s verification portal and the B2B Critical Supply Licence for the casino vertical comes back with status Licensed. Because of a compliance breach, a suspension of that licence by the MGA took effect on 29 September 2020, and reinstatement came afterwards. Without that history, the current status would appear less eventful than the facts, and that is why it has been recorded.
- UK Gambling Commission and Gibraltar, the entries on PG Soft’s list — On its own licensing page, PG Soft shows badges for both. What PG Soft lists is how these two are stated, while the MGA licence above traces to a public register.
PG Soft in the Philippine market
For Pocket Games Soft, a PAGCOR EGLD approved-games list exists; it approves content and does not act as an operator licence. According to widespread reporting PG Soft is one of the most-played slot suppliers on PAGCOR-licensed Philippine sites, but PG Soft did not publish it; affiliate sources did.
