If you are into online casino gaming, you have undoubtedly heard of Playtech – the undisputed leader in casino software development. They have been spearheading innovation in the field for many years now, and have created some of the best and most memorable games out there. Just recently, they have signed an agreement with Warner Bros and DC Entertainment – holders of the highly popular Batman, Superman, and other superhero franchises. This can only mean one thing – we have some great games coming our way!
The Dark Knight Comes to Online Casinos
We will get to experience the new games sooner than you think. There is a total of six planned branded slots, with the first two expected to hit online casinos by the end of the month. They will be based on DC’s most popular and iconic character – Batman. Themed around the classic 1960’s Adam West TV show, ‘Batman & The Joker Jewels’ and ‘Batman & Catwoman Cash’ will have you help the Dark Knight as he faces some of Gotham’s toughest villains. The exciting news is that all DC games will share a total of four progressive jackpots – similar to Playtech’s Marvel Comics slots.
What More Can We Expect?
Future planned releases will be based on popular DC super hero movies, both classic and modern. Here is the full list.
- Superman (1978)
- Superman II (1980)
- Green Lantern (2011)
- Man of Steel (2013)
We can safely say that more titles will be announced soon, including a slot based on the most recent DC movie – Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. Even though it received mixed reactions from fans and critics alike, a slot themed around it is sure to be a hit.
The COO of Playtech, Shimon Akad, said that the announcement of the partnership generated ‘significant global demand in anticipation for the launch of these exciting DC branded games’. He added that the DC Comics-themed games will be a premium addition to their best-performing range of jackpot slot content, while providing fans with the ultimate Batman gaming experience.
