Microgaming in the Spotlight

Publishing: February 15, 2017

We can start by taking a look at some of the winners from this year’s International Gaming Awards and then we can quickly discuss several new games that were showcased at ICE 2017. IGA 2017 took place on February 7th at the InterContinental London on Park Lane and Microgaming ended up scooping the highly sought-after Mobile Product of the Year award. Microgaming is a pioneer in mobile casino software, having developed the first games for mobile back in 2004.

“We are very proud to win the award for Mobile Product. We predicted that mobile would be the future of gaming back in 2004 when we created the world’s first mobile casino software, and we haven’t looked back,” said the Microgaming CEO, Roger Raatgever. Microgaming has developed a comprehensive portfolio of mobile casino games which consists of more than 350 individual titles, with brand new mobile casino games arriving on almost a bi-monthly basis throughout the year.

Their games have created numerous multi-millionaires and the biggest win occurred as recently as August 2016 when one lucky player netted a life-changing €7,968,311.26 (approx. AU$10,953,643.85) from the famous Mega Moolah Mobile Pokie. This incredible windfall was recorded as the largest ever mobile jackpot win.

“The platform is thriving and it is very much the future of our industry, with even more growth to come,” added the CEO. “It is great to receive recognition for our hard work and to be viewed by the industry as having the best mobile product out there. This is the perfect way to start what is sure to be the most incredible ICE Totally Gaming for Microgaming!” We managed to obtain these exact words directly from the official Microgaming website.

Microgaming’s state of the art mobile casino software can be accessed at hundreds of trusted Australian mobile gambling sites and it is compatible with more than 3,000 handheld devices. Australian players can now enjoy playing on these games at top-rated Australian mobile casinos such as Jackpot City Mobile Casino, Platinum Play Mobile Casino and Ruby Fortune Mobile Casino and you can play on these games in the real money mode and in the free play demo mode.

If you do play at any of these trusted Microgaming powered mobile casinos, don’t forget to claim your guaranteed new player welcome bonus that you are entitled to when you deposit for the very first time.
