Content developer Gaming Realms is set to produce Slingo games in collaboration with some of the ‘best performing brands’ within the Interactive Game Technology game library following the signing of a licensing agreement.
As part of the partnership, Gaming Realms will produce Slingo games, which integrate elements of slots and bingo, into IGT titles including brands such as Cleopatra and Da Vinci Diamonds.
Executive chairman of Gaming Realms, Michael Buckley, commented: “Combining Slingo with IGT’s iconic proprietary gaming brands represents a compelling partnership, as we accelerate expansion across the US and European markets.
“Given the popularity of IGT’s titles, this is a fantastic opportunity for Gaming Realms to introduce its Slingo genre to new audiences and welcome a new generation of Slingo fans.”
This comes after the company was recently awarded an interactive gaming manufacturer license just last month by the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board – just one month after the company signalled its intention to go live in the jurisdiction.
Enrico Drago, senior vice president of IGT PlayDigital, noted: “Partnering with Gaming Realms to produce Slingo games represents an exciting opportunity for IGT to extend the reach of some of our top-performing casino brands.
“These iconic IGT brands are widely recognised by land-based and digital players alike, which will assist Gaming Realms with its goal of creating new Slingo players, while reinforcing the power of IGT’s brands in the fast-growing online market.”
