Gaming tech firm Pariplay has partnered Foxwoods Resort Casino in what it considers a landmark technology agreement.
The Connecticut resort and casino complex owned by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, has adopted Pariplay’s interactive gaming platform eyeON, enabling guests at North America’s largest resort casino to enjoy digital gaming on-property, subject to any necessary legislation and regulatory review and approval.
Pariplay’s eyeON was granted Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) certification in 2015 and will now provide Foxwoods Resort Casino’s seven gaming floors, four award-winning hotels and over 35 restaurants, with an all-encompassing, integrated digital gaming experience, a press statement reads.
eyeON will provide guests access to a myriad of digital games, including branded titles Atari Pong, X-O Manowar and Atari Asteroids via a Foxwoods-branded mobile application and web portal. The platform also offers real-money instant win, scratch cards and bingo games developed in-house by Pariplay.
Gili Lisani, founder and CEO of Pariplay Ltd., said:
“Interactive gaming is a critical growth factor for the land-based casino industry in the U.S. We feel that the growth is closely tied to on-premises interactive gaming using mobile devices, and our eyeON product remains the pioneering product in this space.
“Our partnership with Foxwoods, one of the world’s leading land-based casino groups, allows Pariplay to demonstrate our leadership potential as a significant technology player in U.S. gaming. Pariplay will almost certainly play an instrumental role in its digital future.”
Seth Young, Director of Online Gaming at Foxwoods Resort Casino, added:
“We are thrilled to partner with Pariplay and leverage their world-class interactive gaming platform to lay the groundwork for our entry into the U.S. iGaming market.
“Developing an interactive gaming program is the next step in Foxwoods’ commitment to providing an ever-expanding range of amenities to match the changing needs of our guests and to continue to be first-to-market with unique experiences for visitors.”
