Playtech strikes online deal with PokerStars

PokerStars has closed a deal to integrate Playtech slots into its online casino, as the Amaya-owned brand continues its push to become a more diversified operator.

UK.- The deal extends Playtech’s relationship with PokerStars, which is already served by Quickspin, the games developer acquired by Playtech in May for €50 million. PokerStars players on mobile and desktop now have access to a variety of Playtech titles, such as White King, Frankie Dettori and Great Blue with more branded slots on the way including Top Gun, Gladiator and the Age of the Gods series.

Playtech chief operating officer, Shimon Akad, said that they’re delighted to have extended their existing relationship with PokerStars, one of the most established and well-known brands in the industry, and providing them with the industry’s best-performing content.

Sam Hobcraft PokerStars’ director of casino, commented: “We are very excited to partner with Playtech, and to provide our customers some of the best slots in the industry.” He added that Playtech’s suite of jackpot games will fill one of the final gaps in their product offering. This integration is part of a strategic move to bolster PokerStars’ presence on online casino and sportsbook.

Last month Playtech unveiled three titles in a series of seven Age of the Gods games, which will also be rolled out to PokerStars.
