"Following our successful licensing deals with Britain's Got Talent Games and The X Factor Games we are delighted and excited to be extending our strategy with Love Island Games. Alongside Storm, we are providing gaming content and hosting the games on our state of the art platform.
Love Island is a fantastic brand to be working with. It's fun and full of personality and matches the style of Love Island Games that have been developed."
