DWG Launches Real-Money Gaming with GoldenNuggetCasino.com

December 16, 2021 – Innovative casino content studio Design Works Gaming (DWG) continues its US expansion, as its games go live in New Jersey with Golden Nugget Online Gaming (NASDAQ: GNOG).

GoldenNuggetCasino.com players within the Garden State will now be able to enjoy a range of DWG titles, including Golden Grand and Shifting Hearts.

The launch comes via SG Digital’s industry-leading content distribution platform, OpenGaming, with DWG content set to be rolled out across other New Jersey online gaming licensees over the coming weeks. In a first-of-its-kind dual pilot, DWG content also goes live via SG Digital with ResortsCasino in New Jersey this month.

The Scottsdale, Arizona-based content studio draws upon 16 years of game building expertise, with DWG titles already a fixture across land-based and social casinos, as well as regulated real-money online casinos in the UK.

Design Works Gaming CEO Troy Zurawski said: “It’s great to be back in the US. We always intended to launch our games in regulated markets across the country, and New Jersey is a perfect place to start. Land-based and social casinos have already shown us how popular DWG games are in the US. Alongside Golden Nugget Online Gaming, now we’re going to show what’s possible in real-money gaming too.”

GNOG Vice President Warren Steven said: “We are constantly continuing to grow our portfolio of iGaming content, and we are excited to expand our games repertoire by launching DWG games. This will broaden our content offering with DWG’s innovative features and exciting games available to our online patrons”.

DWG’s real money launch in New Jersey is the beginning of a push across the country’s regulated igaming jurisdictions, with a similar roll-out in Michigan to come.

Games like the award-nominated Double Fancy 7s and innovative non-spinning titles including Test Your Strength are already proven hits in real money online casinos in Europe and beyond.

DWG Live in New Jersey with Resorts & Mohegan Sun

,

December 14, 2021 – Casino content studio Design Works Gaming (DWG) is live with New Jersey operator Resorts Digital Gaming on www.resortscasino.com and www.mohegansuncasino.com.

DWG games are now live in NJ with Resorts across both its Resorts Casino and Mohegan Sun brands. The operator was the first to sign DWG real money gaming content in the US.

Games including Wonders of Africa and Armadillo Artie Gone Wild are available now, with more content to follow. The integration is via SG Digital’s OpenGaming platform, as part of a first-of-its-kind dual pilot.

The partnership will also see DWG working closely with Resorts to build a series of bespoke content, informed by the data, that will raise the bar for online gaming in the US.

Design Works Gaming CEO Troy Zurawski said: “As soon as we sat down with Ed Andrewes and the team at Resorts, we knew these were our kinda people. They haven’t built their brand by following the crowd and neither have we – that’s probably why we get along so well. Watch this space for a game-changing partnership, bespoke content and a reimagining of what a great online casino product looks like in New Jersey.”

Resorts Digital Gaming CEO, Ed Andrewes said: “We are absolutely delighted to have partnered with DWG. Their content has already performed remarkably well in Europe and, with their heritage, we believe it can do even better in the US market. DWG immediately understood the demographic of our audience and we believe our customers will love the bespoke content which is significantly different from anything else available”.

DWG’s launch in New Jersey is the first step in a major stateside push, which will see the content studio’s games rolled out across regulated markets with some of the country’s biggest operators. The states of Michigan and Pennsylvania are next on the roadmap, with DWG recently receiving licenses in both.

Design Works Gaming is repeating a remarkable growth story already witnessed in Europe, where the company first launched its real money content last year after more than a decade in the land-based and social spaces. DWG titles have quickly become staples in key markets including the UK, where the content is live with major operators including Kindred, William Hill, and Betfred.

DWG Granted Licenses in Michigan and Pennsylvania

,

October 20, 2021 – Design Works Gaming’s (DWG) stateside expansion continues to pick up pace, after the content studio was granted licenses to provide its games to real money online operators in Michigan and Pennsylvania.

The licenses, which were granted in consecutive days by the Michigan Gaming Control Board and the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board, allow DWG to supply its content to regulated online operators in the states.

DWG already holds a similar license from the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement, meaning its games are now licensed in the three largest states to offer regulated online casino games.

DWG CEO Troy Zurawski said: “We’re serious about transforming online casino content in the US, and that means taking our games into all regulated jurisdictions across the country. Michigan and Pennsylvania are new and exciting markets that are crying out for original, world-class content. Our proprietary RGS integrated with SG Digital affords us break-neck speed to market. We can’t wait to deliver our best-in-class content to the players of these great states!”

Last month, DWG announced its entry in regulated markets in North America via an agreement with SG Digital. The partnership is set to kick off with a first-of-its-kind dual pilot launch in New Jersey with leading operators Golden Nugget and Resorts Casino.

Design Works Gaming Launches Bespoke Nifty Fifty Megaways™ Slot with Betfred

October 5, 2021 – Online gaming pioneer Design Works Gaming (DWG) has launched its first ever Megaways™ game, in the form of a bespoke title for Betfred as part of the hugely successful Nifty Fifty series.

The Nifty Fifty Megaways™ slot is the result of close cooperation between Design Works Gaming, Betfred and Big Time Gaming. It is the first DWG game to incorporate Big Time Gaming’s popular Megaways™ mechanic, as well as being the latest game provided exclusively to Betfred.

In developing Nifty Fifty Megaways™, DWG tested multiple game play models within its proprietary system to determine which variations would be best suited to players at Betfred—with the result including cascading reels and free game features.

Betfred Head of eGaming Andy Horne said: “Working on bespoke content with Design Works Gaming is always a pleasure because Troy and the team are always challenging assumptions on what makes a game great. They insist on building a deep understanding of our players, and then work their magic on developing a game which defies expectations. With Nifty Fifty Megaways™, they’ve done it again.” 

Design Works Gaming CEO Troy Zurawski: “We love building games for Betfred because we get to work as part of their team, not just as another supplier. We’ve exhaustively analyzed exactly which style of Megaways™ works best with the Betfred player base. This is data-led game development on a whole new level and the result is something unique with genuine blockbuster potential. Stay tuned, we’re just getting started.”

DWG previously worked with Betfred to deliver the revolutionary Nifty Fifty games series, which includes a slot and a non-spinning, no-reel game. The brand has featured heavily in Betfred marketing campaigns. The inspiration for the Nifty Fifty series is the Nifty Fifty numbers game, Betfred’s unique and exclusive numbers betting game, designed with the player in mind.
