Playtech Set To Create Cowboys & Aliens Branded Game

Tuesday, December 6th, 2011

Playtech is set to add the brand of Cowboys & Aliens to their laundry list of games. Thanks to an agreement with Platinum Studios, Inc., Playtech now has a licensing agreement in place that allows them to create a branded Cowboys & Aliens game.

Platinum Studios, Inc. is a huge company, and they hold rights to over 5,000 comic book characters. This is Playtech’s and Platinum Studios, Inc.’s first time working together, but it likely won’t be the last. Of course, it’s going to be hard to top the characters from a New York Times best-selling graphic novel.

Playtech is a well known online gaming software provider, and when it comes to offering branded slot games, no one beats Playtech at it. Playtech has managed to tap into a niche market, and since they started, they’ve acquired quite a few popular brand names.

The first of Playtech’s branded slot games started with the Marvel Movies super heroes. After that, a deal was made with MGM, and Rocky came, and then the Pink Panther. A deal with Universal Studios was made, and Kong joined the rest of the cast.

Many players are awaiting the unveiling of the new Cowboys & Aliens game, and in the meantime, they’ll just have to enjoy Playtech’s other branded slot games. What will Playtech’s next branded game be after Cowboys & Aliens?

Cryptologic getting back into the game!

Thursday, July 15th, 2010

After a year of calm, the storm is coming back from Cryptologic. After last year, it was expected that we would be reading about Cryptologic even more in the headlines, but it just wasn’t so. Numerous agreements were signed by a bevy of gaming operators, ensuring Cryptologic owned the headlines then, but the past year has been a bit stale. Only a few agreements were signed this year, as well as the release of two World Cup themed slot games. Rather depressing, right?

Don’t cry anymore, for the Cryptologic we once knew and loved may be coming back around with more fight than ever! The launch of a new gaming package called Instant Click is just what the doctor ordered.

Described as the latest innovative wonder from Crypotologic, they’ve set a higher standard for gaming companies globally with Instant Click. Designed to transfer games to online gaming operators very fast, over 300 of Crypotologic’s online casino games will be available this way over the course of the next few weeks. The nice thing about this new software is that it allows for online gaming operators and gaming technology providers to get games from Cryptologic faster, without having to have it’s full hosting casino platform.
