Full Tilt Poker parent company The Rational Group has chosen Leander Games following a competitive bid process for the provision of a casino gaming platform and game content as it expands from online poker only to online casino gaming.
Technical integration has already begun and will leverage Leander’s LeGa platform for the launch of exclusive games along with a selection of games from Leander’s partner portfolios.
Full Tilt will additionally launch new third-party content from a range of “boutique” game developers, a statement said.
The roll out of Blackjack and Roulette is already in test phase on the Full Tilt platform, while the launch of Leander’s LeGa platform is expected this Spring.
“This is a landmark deal for Leander,” said Leander chief executive officer Steven Matsell. “We are incredibly proud that Rational Group has recognised Leander as a strategic partner to move forward with on this incredible project.
“This partnership will change Leander’s position within the marketplace from “new kid on the block” to a serious contender. We are a small but dedicated team who live and breathe delivering the best games possible and this deal is testament to the quality of our offering. We are excited about the next few months as we work on our biggest venture to date.”
“Leander is the leader in a new generation of gaming platforms,” said Sam Hobcraft, Director of Casino for Rational Group. “They’re smart, creative, nimble and combine speed-to-market with technical excellence.”
