Gaming Realms, a London-listed games developer, has announced that it has entered into a licensing agreement with Inspired Entertainment that will see the parties develop a new game under the Reel King brand.

Slingo Reel King is due to launch at the beginning of next year and will join Gaming Realm’s popular Slingo format and Inspired’s premier Reel King brand with Gaming Realms maintaining exclusive worldwide distribution rights for the new game.

The agreement forms part of a three-year sublicensing deal signed with Inspired earlier this year, which resulted in the favorable release of Slingo Centurion.

Michael Buckley, Gaming Realms interim Chief Executive Officer and non-executive chairman, commented on the new agreement by saying that Reel King remains one of Inspired’s most popular and successful brands and they are very excited to partner with them to bring something new to this firm favorite for players worldwide.

Buckley went on to say that following the successful launch of Slingo Centurion earlier this year, they have no doubt that the game will be well received by existing and new players.

Claire Osborne, Vice President of Interactive at Inspired Entertainment, said that they could not be more delighted to extend their successful partnership with Gaming Realms.

Osborne also said that following the acquisition of the Novomatic Gaming Technology Group (NTG) in October 2019, the Reel King brand is the jewel in their crown and after the success of Slingo Centurion they know customers are going to love this new brand tie up.
