International Game Technology (IGT) has struck a licensing deal with Gamesys to provide the online gaming firm with intellectual property usage rights for certain game features offered within its portfolio.
Under the agreement, Gamesys will have access to a range of game and bonus features found on IGT slot machines.
Gamesys will now be able to utilise such features in its own range of slot titles.
“This agreement with IGT allows Gamesys to utilise compelling and well-established game mechanics in key jurisdictions where such IP is protected by patents,” Gamesys’ head of game studios, Hans Elias, said.
“By further extending our partnership with IGT we have ensured we can benefit from their investment in R&D to develop yet more compelling, unique content for our partners and players.”
Victor Duarte, global chief product officer for gaming at IGT, added: “Working in partnership with Gamesys to enhance its online games leverages our industry-leading R&D investment to deliver better games to more players.”
