Microgaming and Unibet will continue their successful relationship which began in 2006 when Unibet joined the Microgaming Poker Network. Now the two companies have signed a new deal that will provide Unibet with Microgaming’s download casino platform.

The deal will provide UnibetCasino players the opportunity to play some of the best games online including Lara Croft Tomb Raider, The Osbournes and Hitman as well as Microgamings huge progressive jackpot network, currently standing at over €6 Million (which has also paid out over $250 million in the last five years).

“Since joining the Microgaming Poker Network, we’ve enjoyed a strong working partnership, and so this decision has actually been straightforward. Microgaming’s Casino software has an outstanding reputation in the industry…,” said Petter Nylander, CEO of Unibet.

Roger Raatgever, CEO of Microgaming noted that, “…In the last year we’ve achieved a number of major initiatives that will significantly benefit our operators and have a strong pipeline of innovative tools and games coming this year to power operator profits, so when a partner such as Unibet picks us to power multiple software products, it’s further proof that we are delivering where it counts.”

Microgaming currently releases around 60 new games a year and powers 120 of the world’s best online casinos. Unibet has been in operation since 1997 and provides services in 20 languages with more than 2.5 million customers in over 100 countries.
