Greentube sets the pace for 2026 at ICE Barcelona
F
or Greentube, this year’s show was a clear marker of momentum. Across three packed days, the NOVOMATIC Digital Gaming and Entertainment division welcomed a steady flow of operators, partners and industry peers to a stand defined by meaningful conversations, high-quality attendance and genuine engagement. In an increasingly crowded global events calendar, ICE continues to stand apart, and for Greentube, it delivered exactly what the industry’s most influential show should: the space to showcase innovation, celebrate achievement and lay the foundations for long-term growth.
ICE’s continued relevance lies in its ability to bring the right people into the room. From senior decision-makers to long- standing partners and emerging market entrants, the quality of stand visitors throughout the week reflected a show that remains firmly business-first.
If there is one moment in the iGaming calendar that sets the tone for the year ahead, it is ICE. Returning to Barcelona for its latest edition, ICE 2026 once again proved why it remains the industry’s defining meeting point, not just for scale, but for substance.

Those conversations were underpinned by a line-up that balanced established success with forward-looking ambition, a theme that would define Greentube’s presence throughout the week.

Rather than leaning solely on concepts or early-stage previews, the focus was firmly on titles that are already delivering for operators across regulated markets.

Building on the recognisable mechanics and charm of the original, this sequel introduces refined gameplay features designed to extend session time while preserving the accessibility that made the franchise a standout success. Similarly, Starlight Jackpots – Captain’s
Catch demonstrated how Greentube continues to refresh proven brands with innovative twists. By blending familiar characters with new mechanics and a dynamic gameplay flow, the title reflects the studio’s ongoing commitment to evolving IP in ways that feel meaningful rather than cosmetic.
Other new additions such as Rumble Riches – Haulin’ Gold and Three Bandits: Shoot ’n’ Spin further illustrated the breadth of Greentube’s portfolio. Each title brings a distinct visual identity and mechanical approach, reinforcing
