BetMGM, a leading sports betting and online casino operator announced the launch of Everi’s Lions Deluxe slot game in Michigan.
Michigan online gambling launched in December 2019 and BetMGM teamed up with Detroit Lions in September 2020 to become one of the team’s official sports betting partners.
The partnership has involved co-branded assets on team broadcast programming and digital marketing assets.
The Detroit Lions also have partnerships with Soaring Eagle Casino Resort and WynnBet.
BetMGM casino game continues long-standing partnership
Lions Deluxe expands BetMGM’s long-standing partnership with Everi Digital, the online gaming business of Everi Holdings Inc.
Oliver Bartlett, BetMGM’s Director of Gaming said:
“We are thrilled to continue to expand our relationship with the Detroit Lions as we bring another great title to our list of Lions branded games. BetMGM continues to set the standard for casino games in the state of Michigan and we are excited to continue to develop great games for players in the state.”
David Lucchese, Everi’s EVP of Sales, Marketing and Digital added:
“Our partnership with top-tier iGaming operator BetMGM has enabled the delivery of high-performing content across North America. The LIONS DELUXE slot game reinforces our commitment to providing award-winning gaming content to online players in Michigan, including our progressive jackpots which are featured in this exclusive Detroit Lions game. This new progressive game also adds to our Digital catalog of over 50 distinct titles, all housed and delivered via our proprietary Spark Remote Game Server™.”
Detroit Lions-themed slot machine
Lions Deluxe is the latest progressive slot added to BetMGM casino’s portfolio. The game features a 3×2-reel grid with nine pay lines, bonus features, fixed multipliers and Detroit Lions wilds.
Low-value symbols are represented by different forms of BARs, whereas higher-paying symbols come in the form of a variety of lucky sevens.
Once the wild lands on the reels, it substitutes for any symbol except for the symbols with fixed multipliers. The wild will occur with an arrow facing up or down, which will determine the direction it will nudge in.
The built-in “nudge” feature gives players a better chance to win more spins or one of four separate jackpot prizes. Players can set their betting range from $2.25 to a maximum of $6.75. In order to hit the progressive jackpot, though, a maximum bet must be placed.
Players can access Detroit Lions-themed slot using their BetMGM account on iOS, Android and desktop. Apart from an online casino, BetMGM also offers sportsbook and poker apps available on the same platforms.
