The renowned slot game, Buffalo, has been introduced to the Ontario market by BetMGM Casino, expanding its availability to online gaming enthusiasts within the province. This inclusion enhances BetMGM’s already extensive Ontario gaming catalog, which features more than 2,500 games, including 250 developed by Entain.
Initially a sensation in brick-and-mortar casinos, Buffalo has been skillfully transitioned for digital play by Anaxi, the online Real Money Gaming branch of Aristocrat. The game presents a 5×4 grid with 20 paylines, challenging players to fill the screen with buffalo icons for an opportunity at a substantial prize.
“Buffalo enjoys a loyal player base due to its engaging wildlife theme and the memorable ‘Buffalo!’ exclamation that resonates across casino floors,” explained Angus Nisbet, Vice President of Gaming at BetMGM. “Anaxi has excelled in seamlessly adapting this land-based favorite into an immersive online experience. BetMGM is delighted to provide flagship games like Buffalo to our user base.”
This release follows a strategic collaboration announced in February 2023 between BetMGM and Anaxi, through which BetMGM has been progressively integrating Anaxi’s gaming content for its players.
It’s noteworthy that BetMGM held the distinction of being the first online casino globally to feature Buffalo, initially introducing it in Pennsylvania and subsequently in Michigan. Since its debut, Buffalo has consistently secured a position among the top 10 revenue-generating slots for BetMGM.
At the start of 2024, BetMGM established a partnership with the Charlotte Motor Speedway.
This contract sets the stage for a significant contender in the internet sports wagering industry to debut in North Carolina. They are riding high on a successful UK market entry, where their application excelled. This announcement follows closely a revealing discussion with Nisbett, so stay tuned for further advancements in this sector.
