NYX Gaming Group has announced that it purchased Zen Entertainment Incorporated, a social poker software developer and operator that has been struggling pretty bad lately, for an undisclosed amount of money. 

NYX is planning to combine the acquisition with its NextGen Gaming division in Nevada. There have been reports that the company is thinking about developing social and real-money poker games in cooperation with operator Nevada Gold Casino Group. 

Zen Entertainment was operating a number of subscription-based poker sites but revealed that its model has been ‘unsuccessful’.

Matt Davey, CEO for NYX Gaming said: “I am delighted to secure the acquisition of Zen Entertainment Incorporated, a transaction that supports the expansion of the group business into the emerging online gaming markets within North America.”
