Microgaming and Playtech Pokies We Hope Will Be Made

December 1, 2016

The best movie themed pokies and television show themed pokies are also often referred to as branded pokies and these are the ones that have only been developed after Microgaming/Playtech have secured the necessary licensing agreements with the appropriate parties. The length of these licensing agreements can vary a great deal and they often have a tendency to expire which means that these games are not always around forever.

For example Microgaming developed The Dark Knight pokie and The Dark Knight Rises pokie and both games are no longer available because the licensing agreement expired in October 2016. The Dark Knight pokie first appeared online back in 2012 and the sequel, The Dark Knight Rises, first appeared online back in 2013. A similar thing also happened with Microgaming’s Lord of the Rings pokie more than four years ago.

Microgaming has also signed licensing agreements with Universal Partnerships & Licensing to develop pokies such as Jurassic Park (2014) and Jurassic World (2017). There was also the licensing agreement for the Terminator 2 pokie with Creative Licensing Corporation which represents Studiocanal and the more recent licensing agreement with Edgar Rice Burroughs Inc. for the new Tarzan pokie (Dec 2016).

Playtech is most well-known for games like Top Gun, Ace Ventura, Gladiator Jackpot, Monty Python’s Spamalot, John Wayne, Iron Man 3, King Kong, The Incredible Hulk, Blade, The Avengers, The Mummy and Pink Panther, and more recently for branded pokies such as Batman & Catwoman Cash and Dirty Dancing. Also coming soon from Playtech, remember to keep an eye out for Man of Steel, Superman I and Superman II.

There are literally hundreds of amazing branded pokies available online today, but there are still loads more that we hope will eventually be made one day. Some of the games that we would love to see become a realty include hit TV shows like Vikings, The Walking Dead, Friends, Peaky Blinders, Lost, Shameless, The Office, The Grand Tour/Top Gear, Breaking Bad, Twin Peaks, Only Fools and Horses, Blackadder, Deadwood, The X-Files, Stargate, Boardwalk Empire, Red Dwarf, Prison Break, Futurama and Sons of Anarchy, plus there are countless other hit TV shows that we would also love to see being turned into online pokies.

There are lots of films that we would also love to see being turned into pokies and some of the blockbuster Hollywood movies that come to mind include The Hobbit, Jack Reacher, Edge of Tomorrow, James Bond, Jason Bourne, Beverly Hills Cop, Indiana Jones, E.T., The Goonies, Police Academy, Scary Movie, Pirates of the Caribbean, Planes Trains and Automobiles, Star Wars, The Matrix, Westworld, The Truman Show, The Shining, The Exorcist, Casino, Reservoir Dogs, Django Unchained, The Wolf of Wall Street and The Godfather, to mention just a few.
