Instant-win title based on video arcade classic and featuring first-person shooter functionality is the latest release under Pariplay and Atari’s partnership

21st July 2016 – Pariplay Ltd., a leading gaming technology company serving iGaming operators, land-based casinos and iLotteries, and Atari, a leading interactive entertainment group, have announced the launch of their Atari® Asteroids instant-win game. The most recent release under the two companies’ ongoing strategic partnership, the Atari Asteroids® game has been developed by Pariplay’s in-house studio in HTML5 and provides players with an immersive experience, including first-person shooter functionality and HD graphics.

In 2014, Pariplay and Atari partnered to develop a series of real-money gambling titles based on Atari® video arcade classics. Following the successful release of the Atari® Black Widow online slot in Q1 2016, Atari® Asteroids is the first Atari®-branded instant-win game Pariplay’s in-house studio has developed under the partnership.

Paying homage to the classic 1979 space-themed video arcade game, Pariplay’s Atari® Asteroids is an instant-win game as well as a first-person shooter whereby players use laser canons to blast passing asteroids and reveal hidden gems. A nine-symbol action scratch game, Asteroids® allows players whose asteroid-shooting skills succeed in revealing three identical gems to win jackpots of up to $100,000.
