Playtech has launched ‘Sporting Legends’, a new suite of games linked to a series of timed jackpots which are guaranteed to be won every day.
In an industry first, each game in the suite is linked to a series of three, timed Sporting Legends jackpots; daily, weekly and a Mega Jackpot. Players can view timers within the game that count down to each of the different jackpot deadlines.
Every jackpot can be triggered on any spin and for any stake. Each jackpot won before 9pm restarts, while after 9pm the next day’s jackpot begins. The weekly jackpot runs until midnight every Friday and restarts after that time.
Individual slots in the suite, will celebrate a champion of the global sporting world, the first in the series will be ‘Frankie Dettori Sporting Legends’, a follow-up to Playtech’s popular Frankie Dettori Magic Sevens.
Frankie Dettori Sporting Legends’ launch will coincide with The Cheltenham Festival to be held in March 2018, supported by an extensive network promotion offering a weekly prize draw of up to GBP 200,000 between March 1st and 22nd.
During Festival week, Playtech will double the winnings for the first daily and weekly jackpots, with headline prizes of GBP 5,000 also up for grabs in addition to smaller cash sums.
The second title in the series is based on world-renowned snooker player Ronnie O’Sullivan and the third World Cup Top Trumps will be released in time for FIFA 2018 and feature some of the world’s biggest soccer stars.
Shimon Akad, COO, Playtech said: “Our content units have gone above and beyond with this suite of superb games. Playtech Sporting Legends games not only boast a host of incredible titles based on the biggest names in sport, but also crucially our unique, industry-first jackpot functionality that guarantees daily, weekly and mega jackpots 24/7, 365 days a year!
