Gambling Technology Giants Unite to Develop New Generation of Live Slots

Two months after expanding its ravishing iGaming portfolio with top-class games from Spinomenal, 888casino, one of the world’s leading online casino brands is back to reveal the first live casino slot game created exclusively for the brand, called Safari Riches Live.

It was developed by Playtech, the industry’s highly renowned gambling technology company and it will represent a unique milestone for 888.

First Live Slot Game Project for 888

Never in its history has 888 partnered with a slot brand developer to work on a bespoke live casino game such as Safari Riches, which is powered by the industry-first live slot technology.

The game is basically a hosted version of Safari Riches, one of 888casino’s best-performing video slots to date. It is known for engaging action and content-rich features like stacked wilds, big icons and bonus spins.

Hosted by Playtech presenters like in Michigan and New Jersey, this out of the box game will stream from a state-of-the-art studio in Riga, Estonia. The provider has even taken care of providing a truly exciting and entertaining playing experience by including a progressive Daily Jackpot – the first of its kind to be launched on a Playtech Live Casino game!

However, it can only be triggered and won by a single spin made by a single player. In addition, the jackpot is accessible to live casino players only.

As highlighted, the launch of Safari Riches follows some recent partnership announcements in 2022, such as the agreement with Spinomenal, Push Gaming, Triple Cherry and other brands.

Nonetheless, thanks to the company’s increased presence on the market and last year’s distribution agreement with the same provider, 888casino was finally able to include a new branded live casino studio in its offering followed by a range of Playtech’s best performing RNG games too…

“We are thrilled to collaborate with 888casino to create this bespoke live casino slot game, Safari Riches Live,” stated Kevin Kilminster, head of live casino innovation at Playtech.

According to Kilminster, 888casino has made a good choice for the development of its new-generation products by entrusting the Playtech Live team with one of its best-performing iGaming titles.

As the increased demand from worldwide operators grows, providers around the globe enter a race to create new and engaging content for the customers, and this live casino slot game, based on one of 888casino’s most successful proprietary slots, offers a range of tailor-made features for extended play!

The head of live casino innovation is confident that Safari Riches will be as popular as the original.

Extending the Slot Vertical to Live Casino

In the meantime, Talya Benyamini, vice president of B2C casino at 888 commented that the industry’s leading sports betting and online poker website is thrilled to introduce a brand-new and exclusive Safari Riches Live casino slot game to its audience.

The latest launch will help the company expand its amazing portfolio of super exciting games and new formats, which is an important part of the product competitiveness and content strategy, concluded Benyamini.
