WWE and Fanatics Betting & Gaming will unveil WWE-themed online casino games this summer, following a new multi-year licensing agreement.
This collaboration will introduce exclusive games for Fanatics Casino, available on iOS, Android, and the web in Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
The new games are set to launch at the end of July, perfectly timed with WWE SummerSlam, which occurs on August 2nd and 3rd at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.
Ari Borod, Chief Business Officer at Fanatics Betting & Gaming, says: “We are excited to expand our relationship with WWE to now include an exclusive portfolio of WWE-themed online casino games.
“This is a natural extension of the WWE-Fanatics partnership which already includes global e-commerce, licensed merchandise and memorabilia, as well as producing and distributing a growing line-up of digital shows.”
The WWE-themed games will feature popular titles such as WWE Blackjack, Raw Multiplier Melee, SmackDown Big Money Entrance!, WWE Bonus Rumble Gold Blitz and WWE Clash of the Wilds. These aim to capture the energy and excitement of WWE events, providing fans with a unique way to engage with their favourite wrestling entertainment.
Fanatics Casino’s WWE-branded experience will also include exclusive sign-up offers and a special edition of the Spin to Win game, featuring a WWE makeover.
This strategic move by WWE and Fanatics Betting & Gaming is expected to enhance fan engagement by merging the worlds of sports entertainment and online gaming, offering fans a novel way to experience the thrill of WWE beyond traditional broadcasts and events.
