Stake-Exclusive Games Expand Beyond as Juice Opens Its Portfolio to Sweepstakes Casinos

Paula | September 17, 2026

Key Takeaways

• Five studios behind Stake-exclusive slots and instant games have launched Juice, a new B2B game supplier.
• The portfolio includes more than 130 games, including Drac’s Stacks, Bank Basher, Knucklehead Brothers, Fish, and Candy Crunch.
• Juice CEO Brais Pena Sánchez confirmed that the games will be made available to sweepstakes casinos.
• The move could change how operators compete on exclusive game content, while raising questions about what exclusivity means for Stake’s casino lobby.

What Happened?

Stake has spent years building a casino lobby around games that players could find on its platforms but not necessarily elsewhere. That may be about to change.

Five studios behind some of those exclusive titles have now been brought together under a new B2B venture called Juice. The company is opening its game portfolio to third-party casino operators, creating a new route for titles previously associated with Stake to reach a wider audience.

Juice founder and CEO Brais Pena Sánchez confirmed that the company’s games will be available on sweepstakes casinos.

That puts exclusive games in an interesting position. They have been part of what made Stake’s casino offering distinctive, but the studios behind them are now moving into a broader supplier market.

Juice launched with five studios:

1. Massive Studios
2. Twist Gaming
3. Knucklehead Syndicate
4. The Originals
5. Monstrums

Together, their back catalogs include more than 130 games. Several of the titles are already familiar to players who have spent time on Stake.

Why Stake-Exclusive Games Matter

Game exclusivity has always been a useful way for casino platforms to stand out. When a title is available on one platform and not another, it gives players a reason to visit that particular lobby.

Stake’s catalog has played a part in that identity. The question now is whether some of that distinction becomes less meaningful as the studios behind those games begin supplying other operators.

That does not mean Stake is losing all of its exclusive content. The five studios joining Juice represent only part of the wider ecosystem of developers associated with Stake.

Still, the move changes the conversation around these particular games. A title that was once closely tied to Stake may soon be available through other casino brands, including sweepstakes operators.

Juice’s New Role in the Game Supply Chain

One of the more notable details is how Juice plans to distribute the games.

Operators will be able to access the five studios through a single remote game server (RGS) integration, rather than connecting with each studio separately.

That makes the arrangement more straightforward from a technical perspective. Instead of five separate integrations, operators can work through one supplier relationship to access the combined portfolio.

Roobet, a crypto casino, was identified as the first third-party operator to receive the games through this setup.

The model also gives Juice a way to bring its studios’ existing games to new operators without requiring each developer to build a separate distribution arrangement.

What Does This Mean for Stake?

On one hand, Stake still has exclusive studios that are not part of Juice. Its wider game offering is therefore not being opened up wholesale.

That could make some of Stake’s familiar titles less distinctive. But it is too early to say how much that will matter to players or whether it will change the balance between operators.

There is also a connection between Juice and Stake itself. Stake co-founders Ed Craven and Bijan Tehrani were identified as investors in the new venture.

Sánchez also has a history with Stake. He was involved in the company’s early development and later held senior roles at Easygo, the business behind Stake, before moving into the new venture.

That background makes Juice’s launch particularly notable. The studios are moving beyond their previous exclusive relationship with Stake, but the new company is not entirely separate from the people who helped build that ecosystem.

What Happens Next?

Juice’s next step is bringing its games to more operators, including sweepstakes casinos. The rollout will determine how widely these previously Stake-exclusive titles become available.

Juice has confirmed plans to supply sweepstakes casinos, but specific launch dates and operator names have yet to be announced. The focus now is on which platforms pick up the games and whether they offer the full portfolio or selected titles.

The five studios joining Juice represent only part of Stake’s game ecosystem. Whether other developers follow the same route remains unclear, but the move could gradually change how exclusive game content is distributed.
