PENN Entertainment is providing players in New Jersey with a new gaming experience.
The entertainment and gaming giant announced on Tuesday the launch of its standalone Hollywood Casino app in New Jersey. In addition to Google Play and the App Store, PENN has made the standalone product available through the ESPN Bet app. ESPN Bet users can access the new standalone Hollywood Casino app using their credentials.
“We’re thrilled to introduce our dedicated, casino-first experience to customers across New Jersey,” said PENN Chief Technology Officer Aaron LaBerge. “Hollywood Casino delivers a best-in-class experience with an extensive game library, seamless gameplay, and exclusive content from our in-house studio. This launch builds on the strong momentum we’ve gained since introducing our enhanced standalone app in December.”
Late last year, PENN launched its standalone Hollywood Casino app in Pennsylvania. PENN debuted the product ahead of projections by the company’s leadership team.
PENN would later expand the reach of its standalone Hollywood Casino app in January with the launch of the product in Michigan, home of Hollywood Casino at Greektown.
The Hollywood Casino app currently provides players with access to over 700 titles. Its games include titles from PENN Game Studios, PENN’s in-house development studio.
Quarterly results for PENN
PENN has launched its standalone app in three key markets after reporting favorable growth for its interactive business, which includes iGaming and sports betting operations.
In Q4 2024, PENN saw its Interactive segment generate $275 million in revenue. As a result, its adjusted EBITDA losses reached $110 million, down from $334 million in Q4 2023.
PENN also reported a 64% year-over-year uptick in iGaming net revenue across Hollywood Casino and theScore Bet, which serves Ontario’s online gaming market.
