BetMGM will become the first beneficiary after Anaxi and Aristocrat revealed that the popular Buffalo slot collection from the land-based casino would be coming to the digital world.
Anaxi, which began with New Jersey’s online casinos in the first quarter of this year, has promised that “the stampede” will continue across a variety of operators covering “more players and more markets” over the next few months.
The group, in addition to BetMGM has signed a number of US-based partnerships in recent years, including Caesars FanDuel, and Penn Interactive. This could pave way for Buffalo’s invasion in additional states.
“Bringing Buffalo, the iconic slot machine title to igaming, is so exciting that our customers and players can’t be more excited to play it online,” said Cath Burs Chief Operating Officer at Anaxi.
We are on a mission of creating gaming’s next frontier, and the stampede that continues online is a clear sign that we are charging forward with confidence.
Anaxi’s Buffalo expansion will have an international flavor, as well as its US-based expansion.
The MGM Resorts joint venture with Entain could facilitate this, following the recent announcement by MGM Resorts that the UK was the first step to its global growth.
The Buffalo games include Timberwolf, Wicked Winnings II (Sun & Moon), Wild Lepre’coins, Wild Wild Nuggets, Wild Wild Samurai, and Miss Kitty.
BetMGM has launched the game in New Jersey and plans to expand it to Pennsylvania and Michigan soon.
BetMGM’s Chief Revenue Officer, Matt Prevost said: “We are proud to be the online destination of Buffalo.
We are excited to bring Buffalo’s thrill and excitement to New Jersey, and other states in the fall. Anaxi has captured the fast-paced elements that players love about Buffalo and can now experience them in their palms.
