IGT has clinched a five-year Digital Platform and Content Agreement with Penn National Gaming.

Under the terms of the agreement, IGT’s PlayDigital division will provide Penn National Gaming with a full suite of digital gaming products, including the platform, and services for the newly regulated Pennsylvania online gaming market.

IGT’s digital gaming platform, PlayCommand™, will enable online gaming for Penn National’s Pennsylvania-based customers via its online gaming portal – HollywoodCasino.com.

Penn National will also leverage IGT’s PlayCasino to provide its players with a portfolio of games including Wheel of Fortune®, Elephant King®, Ocean Magic® and Cleopatra® slots. In addition, Penn National will deploy both IGT’s PlayBingo and PlayPoker online solutions.

Enrico Drago, IGT Senior Vice President of PlayDigital, said: “The newly regulated Pennsylvania online gaming market presents an exciting opportunity for IGT to extend the success of our PlayCommand platform and PlayCasino to Penn National as it expands the scope of its entertainment offering.”

Penn National expects to go live in the Pennsylvania online market during the first quarter of 2019.
