And, now, you can add a new name to that growing list of companies GameCo. It is moving its corporate offices from New York to Las Vegas. <\/p>\n
\"We have a belief that Las Vegas is the perfect home for these types of activations and events and a lot of it has to do with that built-in ability for ... unique experience for gamers,\" said CEO Blaine Grayboyes. <\/p>\n
GameCo's move to Las Vegas could signal another change long rumored to be coming.<\/p>\n
The company specializes in taking existing gaming from the ones you pick up at the app store to the first-person games that make headlines and converts them to gambling. <\/p>\n
\"We're really focused on the idea of video game gambling so we created a hardware and software platform that makes it easy to adapt existing games to play inside regulated casino environments,\" Grayboyes said. <\/p>\n
While GameCo's move has begun, it won't happen overnight. For now, its corporate offices are moving to Las Vegas with other operations to follow. <\/p>\n
