BetVictor launch Chelsea-themed slot; 188Bet reunite with Wigan Warriors

Gibraltar-based online gambling operator BetVictor has expanded its sponsorship of Chelsea FC by rolling out a new team-themed slot title.

BetVictor signed on as Chelsea’s global betting and gaming partner this summer and the company isn’t letting the turf grow under its feet. On Thursday, BetVictor announced what it’s claiming is the world’s first English Premier League club-branded online slot game.

The exclusive Realistic Games-developed slots title features images of some of the EPL champion club’s most recognizable players, while the soundtrack attempts to recreate the jet-engine decibel level at the club’s Stanford Bridge Stadium.

BetVictor COO Paul Louis credited both Realistic and the team for helping to create an “engaging” slots title, which Louis suggested would be joined by more exclusive Chelsea-themed products in 2016. Realistic Games commercial director Andy Harris said his company was chuffed at the reception afforded the new slots title, which he called “ a real game changer for branded slot content.”
