Hollywoodbets Launches IGT PlayDigital Slots in SA

Hollywoodbets has expanded its online casino catalogue in South Africa through a new content agreement with IGT PlayDigital, making a selection of the supplier’s games available to local players for the first time.

The partnership has introduced an initial group of 20 IGT PlayDigital titles to Hollywoodbets’ platform. The launch includes several established games from IGT’s international portfolio, including Cash Eruption™, Cleopatra™, and Mystery of the Lamp Treasure Oasis™.

The move marks IGT PlayDigital’s first entry into the South African iGaming market and gives Hollywoodbets access to additional online casino content from a supplier with a long-standing presence in gaming.

IGT CEO of Digital Gil Rotem said the launch represents an important development for the company’s international operations.

"Expanding into South Africa marks an exciting milestone for IGT PlayDigital as we continue to grow our global footprint,” said Gil Rotem, IGT CEO of Digital. “Collaborating with Hollywoodbets allows us to bring a proven portfolio of high-performing, player-favorite titles to a dynamic and rapidly evolving market. Our focus is on delivering engaging content that resonates with players and drives long-term value for our partners."

Initial Release Followed By Wider Game Rollout

The current launch covers 20 games, with another 20 titles expected to become available in the coming months as the partnership continues.

The additional releases will further extend the range of IGT PlayDigital content offered through Hollywoodbets. The operator said adding recognized games from the supplier will support its aim of providing a broader selection of online entertainment options to customers.

Wayde Dorkin, Head of Product at Hollywoodbets, highlighted the importance of bringing IGT’s portfolio to the platform.

"With the most site visitation in the South African iGaming market, Hollywoodbets is pleased to bring IGT PlayDigital’s globally recognized content portfolio to our players in South Africa,” he said. “The addition of iconic titles such as Cleopatra and Cash Eruption strengthens our offering and reinforces our commitment to delivering premium entertainment experiences. This collaboration supports our strategy of providing diverse, high-quality content to our growing customer base."

The agreement adds IGT PlayDigital’s digital games to Hollywoodbets’ existing offering while introducing players in South Africa to titles that have achieved recognition across global markets.

IGT Continues Digital Expansion Through PlayDigital

For IGT PlayDigital, the Hollywoodbets agreement extends its presence beyond existing markets and brings its online casino portfolio into South Africa for the first time.

The company said its digital offering benefits from its background in land-based gaming, allowing it to bring established gaming brands and content performance into online channels.

Through the collaboration, Hollywoodbets will offer IGT PlayDigital games alongside its current online casino content, while IGT will continue expanding access to its digital portfolio.

The companies said the partnership will develop further after the initial release, with more titles planned for rollout in the months ahead.
