BetMGM has launched an exclusive slot title using its endorsement from the National Hockey League, releasing NHL Gold Blitz for its New Jersey-facing platform. 

The slot uses Digital Gaming Corporation’s flagship Gold Blitz mechanic while utilising IP from the hockey league to appeal to its loyal fan base across North America. 

“BetMGM is ecstatic to partner with the NHL and Digital Gaming Corporation to bring this first-of-its-kind slot to BetMGM,” said Oliver Bartlett, Vice President of Gaming Product & Content, BetMGM. 

“The iconic NHL brand combined with the great action of the game make this a real winner. We are proud to offer this and many more unique games exclusively at BetMGM.” 

Produced out of an ongoing partnership with DGC’s B2B igaming division, the exclusive slot title showcases a 6×4 reel set that has 4,096 ways to win, with bonus features such as instant prizes, wild multiplier free spins and jackpot rewards. 

The game uses team logos from all 32 NHL teams as well as the ‘iconic’ NHL shield, in a bid to create an ‘immersive experience’ for hockey-loving slot players. 

Neill Whyte, Chief Commercial Officer of DGC’s B2B igaming division, added: “In BetMGM we have a partner that understands the importance of offering their players unique and diverse content that delivers the high levels of engagement and entertainment they are seeking. 

“Our collaboration on NHL Gold Blitz does just that. A great game, a great brand and a great team.” 

This is not the first time BetMGM has launched an NHL-themed game, having previously worked in collaboration with Evolution to create a series of branded live casino titles.
