Awager, an Aristocrat iGaming technology company, has partnered with BetMGM to launch its live-streamed slots offering on BetMGM and Borgata Online in New Jersey.
The offering allows players to remotely access physical slot machines through a live-streaming platform, combining online play with the experience of playing a land-based machine.
At launch, players will have access to 50 slot cabinets featuring more than 30 game titles, including Aristocrat Gaming titles such as Buffalo Ascension and Lightning Link.
“The collaboration brings together Awager’s proprietary remote gaming technology and BetMGM’s industry-leading online casino platform to deliver a differentiated player experience that bridges the gap between land-based and digital gaming,” the partners said.
Awager’s platform streams gameplay in 4K video with authentic machine audio and real-time responsiveness. Each spin is performed on a physical slot machine operating in a regulated studio environment.
“Bringing land-based play online is at the heart of our mission to deliver a truly authentic casino experience straight to players’ devices,” said Superna Kalle, Chief Strategy Officer at Aristocrat.
“We’re incredibly proud to partner with BetMGM on this launch and continue expanding access to real slot machine play. Together, we’re creating new ways for players to enjoy the games they love while preserving the authenticity and trust that make the land-based casino experience so compelling.”
Awager said its platform is built on more than a decade of development across proprietary hardware, software, and streaming technology. The company operates studio locations across North America and Europe and highlighted that it operates exclusively in regulated jurisdictions.
Rob Passerino, Director of Gaming at BetMGM, said: “At BetMGM, we’re committed to bringing new and innovative gaming experiences to our players. The addition of Awager’s live slots offering creates an exciting new way for our players to engage with slot machines digitally.
“This is just the beginning of our partnership, and we look forward to continuing to work together to explore new opportunities that further enhance the BetMGM online casino experience.”
