Slingshot to develop exclusive content for Microgaming

News on 12 Sep 2018

Online gambling games and software developer Microgaming has announced a collaborative deal with new independent game studio Slingshot Gaming, which will be developing exclusive content for the Isle of Man company.

Slingshot Studios are game builders focused on enhancing successful slot game staples and innovating with fresh new features. Driven by a passion for bringing vibrant game experiences to players, the team comprises industry talent with a flair for producing high-quality games made for avid slots fans and new players alike, Microgaming said in a statement Wednesday.

The statement announced the roll-out of the first Slingshot game under the agreement, titled Cash of Kingdoms, a game that includes a brand new feature in the form of Invading Wilds, which occurs in both the base game and free spins.

Cash of Kingdoms is a fantasy-themed online slot, which Microgaming teased on the third day of ICE Totally Gaming 2018 at the beginning of the year. The Microgaming Bar was decked out with medieval accessories, including barrels for tables, archery targets and full sets of armour. In addition, there was a special routine by a skilled foot archer who took centre stage and stunned the audience with her daring performance (see previous report).

John Coleman, Microgaming CEO, said Wednesday: “Microgaming’s extensive digital portfolio will benefit from the unique personality and expertise of Slingshot Studios, who are developing original games with exciting engines and features, all targeted at specific markets and audiences. The content they have coming is fantastic, and their drive to create and challenge is incredible. Slingshot are the latest in a number of game studios to be announced as exclusive providers to Microgaming, and we look forward to unveiling more content from them in the coming months.”

Richard Vermaak, creative director at Slingshot Studios, added: “At Slingshot Studios, our energy and imagination push us forward. We love building games that people love to play, and we can’t wait to share them with Microgaming for their operators’ players to enjoy.”
