Good to Know

BGaming Enlists Júlio César for World Cup Initiative

BGaming has teamed up with former Brazil goalkeeper Júlio César as part of a new campaign leading up to the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The deal was unveiled at SiGMA South America in Brazil, where Júlio César signed the contract at the BGaming booth during a public ceremony.

The event drew over 200 visitors and featured an autograph and photo session that attracted partners, media, and fans.

Júlio César brings significant football credibility to the partnership. Throughout his career, he played in three World Cups, earned 87 caps for Brazil, and won three major international trophies. At the club level, he was also part of the Inter Milan squad that secured a treble under José Mourinho.

The collaboration will directly feed into product development. BGaming is preparing to launch Penalty Duel with Júlio César, a football-themed casual game where players step into the role of the kicker and aim to hit multipliers by scoring goals. The format relies on timing and precision, designed as a quick football gaming experience.

Two core features are at the heart of the game. The Chance feature increases the likelihood of triggering the Golden Ball, which boosts scoring opportunities. The Buy Bonus feature unlocks a special round where players take part in a series of penalty kicks with Júlio César against a Rio beach backdrop.

The game is scheduled to go live in June, giving BGaming a football product in the market just before the 2026 FIFA World Cup build-up gains momentum.

Kate Pateiko, Chief Marketing Officer at BGaming, said:

“Júlio César is a true legend of Brazilian football, and we are proud to welcome him as a partner. This collaboration goes far beyond a traditional endorsement, it’s about integrating his legacy directly into the product experience.”
