Barcrest Joins
Online Slots Venture
Barcrest is known for their slots and gambling
machines, and now they are going to be known for their online slots
as well. The company has decided to get into the online slots
business and has entered into the perfect pairing to make that dream
a reality.
Their parent company and Million-2-1 are going to be creating the
same type of land based games that they already make for the online
slots and mobile gaming world. IGT-UK has signed a deal with
Million-2-1 to accelerate the plans that they have to move forward
into the online slots and mobile gaming industry.
Their first game is going to be “Hi 5,” which will have progressive
online slots and different sorts of features that are only normally
seen on land based slots. The CEO of Million-2-1, Chris Sheffield,
says that with the growing demand of online slots mimicking those
that are traditionally online, they are poised to enter the market
with their new deal.
They think that they are going to start seeing more demand for
online slots, etc. for mobile phones as more and more people turn to
their mobile devices for gaming. IGT-UK says that this move is just
one more step for the company to move their Barcrest gambling
content into more markets than they are currently in.
