Big Daddy Gaming Granted a UKGC License
Big Daddy Gaming is the latest slot developer to receive a UKGC license, meaning it will soon make its online slots available to UK players.
This means entertaining online slots such as God Bod, Legacy of Desperados, BonBon Boom, and others will soon be released on UK slot sites.
Major milestone for Team Big Daddy
Big Daddy Gaming proudly announced on October 22, 2026, that they are now licensed by the UK Gambling Commission.
Co-founder Simmon Hammon wrote on Big Daddy Gaming’s LinkedIn page:
“When we started Big Daddy Gaming, the aim was simple: build a studio the biggest operators would want to work with. Obtaining our UKGC licence is a big step towards that, and a clear sign of our ambition. It also says a lot about how we build games. Our features are designed for multiple markets from day one, so the full experience goes everywhere our games do. Bonus Gamble is one example. Double Gamble is the next, and it arrives in Los Luchadores on 12 November. Player-friendly games, familiar features with a twist, built for regulated markets. That’s the Big Daddy way. Huge thanks to the team who made this happen. The UK is open, and we’re ready. Reel Fun. Real Value.”
