Leading slot manufacturer International Game Technology announced a new multi-year agreement with Sony Pictures Consumer Products, under which IGT will continue to develop games based on the Wheel of Fortune game show for casinos, as well as mobile and online channels, including for-wager iGaming and IGT’s social DoubleDown Casino.
Since IGT launched the first Wheel of Fortune slot machine, more than 200 slot themes have been introduced around the world based on the show.
As part of the new agreement, IGT has also licensed the Jeopardy! brand, including game development for slot machines, online games for its DoubleDown Casino and for-wager online play. The game’s appearance on IGT’s DoubleDown Casino will mark the first time that Jeopardy! will be available on an online social casino in the U.S.
Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! are part of IGT’s MegaJackpots Wide Area Progressive product line.
