BetMGM brings Buffalo Slot online

BetMGM, one of the leaders in iGaming in North America and beyond, has revealed a significant milestone involving the introduction of the acclaimed land-based casino slot game Buffalo to online audiences.

This is the first time the game has been introduced to online players and has indeed been digitalized. The title has launched with the brand’s online casino platform in New Jersey for its debut, but it’s due to roll out in other iGaming hubs, such as Michigan and Pennsylvania at a later time.

The game is one of the most popular land-based slot machines. Developed by Aristocrat, the digital version of the slot is also built by the company’s in-house Real Money Gaming division, Anaxi, which specializes in the creation of digital products, and has created Buffalo as a 20-payline and five-by-four slot game for players to enjoy online.

Celebrating this achievement, Anaxi Chief Operating Officer Cath Burns welcomed the opportunity, arguing that the "stampede" had officially begun. Burns was happy to see BetMGM adopt the slot and bring it to its portfolio of games and audiences of hundreds of thousands of gamers.

The slot is also realized as a part of a strategic partnership that both Anaxi and BetMGM have been working on together since the beginning of the year. In the meantime, BetMGM Chief Revenue Officer Matt Prevost has hailed the opportunity and said that the company was honored to be hosting the first instance of Buffalo slot machine that has been digitalized.

"We are ready to bring the thrill and excitement of Buffalo to our players in New Jersey and additional states this fall. Anaxi captured the fast-paced elements of Buffalo which players love and are now able to experience in the palm of their hands," Prevost said with confidence.

The casino brand has built an impressive library of titles with more than 1,500 games to choose from. BetMGM also paid more than $75m in jackpot winnings in 2022 and is on track to beat that result in 2023, owing to the company’s state-by-state exclusive jackpot networks. Now, Buffalo slot will only add to this excitement.

In the meantime, BetMGM has been growing its footprint well beyond its home stomping ground of North America, with the brand making a determined push in the European market where it launched in the United Kingdom, one of the most lucrative and competitive iGaming jurisdictions across the pond.
