Williams Interactive Signs with Ladbrokes

Williams Interactive has signed a deal with Ladbrokes to provide online slot content to the operator via its Remote Game Server technology.

Williams Interactive, the online subsidiary of Scientific Games Corporation, has entered into a multi-year agreement with leading British gaming operator Ladbrokes to add the full portfolio of Williams Interactive online slot games to Ladbrokes.com.

Through integration with the Williams Interactive Remote Game Server, Ladbrokes.com players will have access to a library of Vegas-style slot games including the player favorites like Spartacus Gladiators of Rome, classic hits like The Wizard of Oz Ruby Slippers, recent hit launches including Zeus III, and well-known retail themes like Crown Gems and Money Mad Martians.

Many of these games are already popular with players in Ladbrokes betting shops throughout the U.K., provided by a Williams Interactive sister company trading as SG Gaming. Games from the Williams Interactive game library are expected to launch for mobile and desktop players on Ladbrokes.com by the middle of 2014.

“We’re thrilled to provide the catalogue of Williams Interactive slot themes to our players later this year,” said Richard Poole, head of product for Ladbrokes Digital. “The expanded access to themes already popular in our betting shops, including the fan-favorite Rainbow Riches, is an exciting opportunity to extend enjoyment of those themes for our players online and on their mobile devices.

“In addition, their wide array of one-of-a-kind game engines like Colossal Reel and Double Money Burst are already exciting online players across Europe, and will provide new and engaging casino options for our player community.”

Jordan Levin, managing director for Williams Interactive, added, “Expanding the reach of our deep catalogue of unique and innovative slot themes and game engines with one of the U.K.’s leading betting and gaming enterprises is another exciting step for Williams Interactive. We believe that Ladbrokes players, who already enjoy our themes from our portfolio in Ladbrokes retail locations, will enjoy the omni-channel access this relationship provides them to our library of player-favorite slots at retail shops, from home, and on the go.”
