White Hat Studios debuts new progressive jackpot network
Jackpot Royale Express is designed to diversify the tools portfolio.
Key Points
- The new network allows players to have frequent chances at smaller jackpot wins
- The Wheel feature offers five jackpot progressive prizes
White Hat Studios has released Jackpot Royale Express, a new progressive jackpot network created to “deliver smaller jackpot payouts with greater frequency.”
Jackpot Royale Express differs from the previous version because of an increase in chances to trigger the Wheel feature. This allows players an opportunity to take home one of five progressive pots.
Games under the new network are scheduled to be released monthly throughout the year, the company said. The first title, Rick and Morty Strike Back Jackpot Royale Express, is due to launch in Michigan next month.
The company said the new product “has been optimized to enhance anticipation and engagement by targeting a unique set of player preferences.”
Company SVP Sales and Marketing Daniel Lechner further explained the system by saying, “The Express network has been engineered specifically to align with a unique set of player preferences, catering to those that favor less volatile games.
“By enhancing the versatility of White Hat Studios’ jackpot products, we have maximized the value of our offering to the benefit of both the operator and player.”
Lechner added, “We have seen incredible results with our debut jackpot product, Jackpot Royale, and the development of Jackpot Royale Express will bolster our offering further as we look to provide US operators with the most extensive range of promotional tools.
White Hat Gaming was recently issued a fine in Connecticut after several players began filing complaints regarding its slot game, Deal or No Deal Banker’s Bonanza.
According to a report provided to local news by the state’s Department of Consumer Protection’s Gaming Division, 522 players in Connecticut played the game and walked away with no wins.
An internal investigation was launched and revealed a glitch in the game. A computer error had set the game’s winning odds to zero. The investigation found that not a single win came even after players hit the spin button 20,000 times.
After the error was discovered, DraftKings refunded the players involved a total of $23,909. However, the investigation revealed that DraftKings did not report the incent to the DCP until a week later.
A DraftKings spokesperson told local news the game’s error was limited to its Connecticut launch and “resulted from an error by the game’s developer.”
White Hat Gaming was issued a $3,500 fine because of the glitch. DraftKings was fined $19,000.
