JULY 22, 2024 – Inspired Entertainment, Inc. (“Inspired” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: INSE), a leading B2B provider of gaming content, systems, and solutions, is delighted to announce the launch of Re-Play eSports featuring Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (“CS:GO”) with premium online sports betting and gaming brand, Betano.
Betano is owned by Kaizen Gaming, one of the biggest GameTech companies in the world,

Re-Play eSports showcases footage taken exclusively from CS:GO’s global tournament, the Champion of Champions Tour, which includes professional teams from across the globe. The official in-game data and video feeds that power Re-Play eSports are provided by GRID, a game data platform that specializes in providing in-game data solutions for the eSports and gaming industry.
CS:GO is a well-known and popular tactical multiplayer first-person shooter video game. In Re-Play eSports, two teams go head-to-head to battle it out. Bets are offered on a variety of possible outcomes including which team will win, which team will get the first kill and total number of survivors.
