Playtech launch Dirty Dancing slot

Playtech, in a licensing collaboration with Lionsgate, has launched ‘Dirty Dancing’, a multi-jackpot progressive slot based on the iconic 1987 American romantic drama dance movie featuring Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey.

The new slot remains true to the hit dance romance which was the first film to sell more than one million home videos when it was released in 1987 and celebrates its 30th anniversary this year.

‘Dirty Dancing’ includes memorable scenes and audio from the movie while offering the opportunity to win a Johnny jackpot, Baby jackpot, a Dirty Dancing Jackpot Game, Whirling Wilds with up to six random wilds in any spin, dancing wilds stacked in free games, and up to 35 free games with expanding wilds.

Retro-style symbols include all the film’s main characters, dancing shoes, vinyl records, a classic 1950s sports car, and jewels that award a large pay out if players achieve three in a row and enter the Dirty Dancing Jackpot Game.

James Frendo, Casino Director, Playtech said:

“Dirty Dancing is such an iconic brand that it was an obvious choice for us to transform into a leading branded slot. The game is sure to be an instant hit with our licensees’ players both old and new.”

Peter Levin, President of Interactive Ventures and Games, Lionsgate, added:

“Thirty years after its arrival, the original ‘nobody puts Baby in a corner’ Dirty Dancing remains a deeply memorable classic that helped define a generation of cinema. We’re proud to work with great partners like Playtech to leverage our unique properties to connect with fans around the world.”
