EXCO Game Studio
EXCO Game Studio, short for Excommunicado, is an independent B2B iGaming slot developer founded in 2025 by Fredrik Elmqvist, the former founder and CEO of Yggdrasil Gaming. The studio entered the market with an emphasis on original game concepts, proprietary mechanics and a selective release strategy rather than high-volume production. Its catalogue focuses on online slots designed around distinctive themes, mathematical features and gameplay suited to streaming audiences.
EXCO's portfolio includes VEGASCALINE, The Robbin' Goblins, LUNA X, Piranha Bite Club, Apex Dregs and Bullfrogzilla. Its proprietary GAMEX mechanic family includes Wrapper Stacks, Power Bar, Power Fields, Boss Fights, Swimmer Reel and Doubling Dial. These features introduce different approaches to persistent symbols, multiplier progression and bonus rounds. Selected games also offer EXCO HACKS bonus-buy options, including Super Hack features that modify bonus mechanics and multiplier limits.
The studio publishes game-specific RTP configurations, maximum-win limits and detailed mechanic descriptions. Its operator resources include playable demos, game sheets and marketing assets, while supported promotional options include free spins and tournaments. EXCO Game Studio's slots are available through the Timeless Tech Game Aggregator, giving operators access to its original game catalogue and proprietary feature systems.
