IGT has announced that its Wheel of Fortune-branded games are now available in the Canadian province of Ontario as a premium electronic bingo game.
The supplier’s Wheel of Fortune Double 3X4X5X Pay Bingo and Wheel of Fortune Five Times Pay Bingo are now available to Ontario’s 37 charitable gaming centers that are approved for electronic bingo. IGT is signing deals with individual operators.
David Fraser, Senior Director, Charitable Gaming, Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation, stated: “The introduction of IGT’s premium-branded Wheel of Fortune titles as electronic cabinet bingo games has the opportunity to engage new and existing players in Ontario’s charitable gaming market.
“These exciting additions will elevate game play and create additional product choice for our service providers which all contribute to strengthening Charitable Gaming and raising money for local charities.”
IGT licenses the Wheel of Fortune brand from Sony Pictures Television. Its Wheel of Fortune electronic bingo content incorporates iconic features from the game show including spinning wheel sounds, vibrant colors, and memorable cues.
David Flinn, IGT Regional Vice President, Canada, South and Central America, added: “IGT is committed to enhancing the player experience for Ontario’s charitable gaming market, through the addition of Wheel of Fortune-branded electronic bingo games.
“IGT will continue developing new products with innovative technology, and contemporary play styles to support the important work of charitable bingo halls throughout Ontario.”
Ontario’s igaming market is set to launch later this year on April 4.
