PG Soft in the Philippine market
PAGCOR EGLD approves Pocket Games Soft’s games through an approved-games list, which counts as content approval and not an operator licence. On PAGCOR-licensed Philippine sites, reports widely rank PG Soft among the most-played slot suppliers, but affiliates, not PG Soft, are behind those reports.
Titles covered on this site
This site has its own page for 7 PG Soft titles: Fortune Tiger, Lucky Neko, Mahjong Ways, Mahjong Ways 2, Treasures of Aztec, Wild Bandito, Wild Bounty Showdown.
On its own pages, PG Soft features these titles: Mahjong Ways 2, Fortune Tiger, Fortune Ox, Lucky Neko, Wild Bandito. That’s simply the studio putting its own catalogue forward. Whether a casino offers any of these, or whether they show up as entries on this page, is left unanswered.
Whether PG Soft publishes RTP
PG Soft doesn’t leave RTP data to aggregators — the studio itself lists that figure on each game’s own page, so the number for any of its titles traces straight back to PG Soft.
A visitor looking for RTP on PG Soft’s page finds only a blank dash, despite the number being present in the game data the server sends alongside the page. Because values obtained through that method matched independent consensus title by title, the numbers stand as real. ‘As shown on PG Soft’s page’ isn’t accurate; ‘per PG Soft’s published game data’ is, given that checking by eye reveals only a dash.
This matters more than it sounds. A return-to-player number that merely echoes across comparison sites, without any primary source underneath, tells you nothing — credibility comes only from where the figure originated.
Licences the studio holds
PG Soft is recorded as holding: Malta Gaming Authority, UK Gambling Commission plus Gibraltar make up the pair PG Soft identifies as authorities. An operator licence and a studio licence are not the same thing: the studio licence covers the company that builds the games rather than the casino offering them, and a player’s recourse goes through the operator’s regulator, not the studio’s.
- Malta Gaming Authority — The licence held by Pocket Games Software Limited (C 76195) is numbered MGA/B2B/435/2017. The MGA’s verification portal confirms Licensed status on a B2B Critical Supply Licence in the casino vertical. A compliance breach was behind the MGA’s suspension of that licence, effective 29 September 2020, which reinstatement later reversed. This gets recorded here precisely because skipping it would leave the current status looking less eventful than reality.
- UK Gambling Commission plus Gibraltar make up the pair PG Soft identifies as authorities — PG Soft’s own licensing page includes badges covering both. As PG Soft lists them, the remaining two licences are stated here, unlike the MGA licence above, which traces to a public register.
