A Swedish gaming company has purchased the troubled free-to-play online poker network Zen Entertainment.

NYX Gaming Group has completed the acquisition according to Gaming Intelligence Report.

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

Zen gaming filed for bankruptcy in late January.
