Microgaming has teamed up with brand Playboy once again to develop a new multi-player online pokie called Playboy Multi-Player. This awesome new interactive pokie can now be found in several top Australian online casinos. Players can only experience this new pokie in the real money mode and it can only be launched from within Microgaming’s award winning download client.

This new multi-player pokie can now be found in several top Australian online casinos such as Jackpot City Casino, Betway Casino, Platinum Play Casino, Gaming Club Casino, Spin Palace Casino and Royal Vegas, plus it will continue to arrive in more AU online casinos over the coming weeks. Speaking about the release of this new pokie was Microgaming’s Head of Multi-Player Games, James Ford;

“Playboy is one of the most recognisable brands in the world – it has 97% unaided global brand awareness. So to be able to bring our popular Playboy online slot to Multi-player is very exciting. It is an ideal acquisition tool and provides our operators with a fantastic opportunity for creative and engaging marketing campaigns.” These comments came from the official Microgaming website.

Microgaming also recently announced that it would be adding several new games from a company called Betdigital onto its non-downloadable Quickfire platform. These new pokies are likely to include popular titles such as Superpots Bar-X, Caesar’s Palace and Fantastic Fruits and they will be live on this platform before the end of the year.

In other news from Microgaming, this leading online casino software provider recently won the Digital Product of the Year award at the world’s first ever Global Gaming Awards - an event which took place in Las Vegas, Nevada.
