Powered by Play Anywhere technology, Monumental Game Center initially went live during February 2025, cementing MNMT as the first local media rights holder to provide an interactive experience outside of Las Vegas and the first-ever to be launched for the NBA.
Mystics fans who choose to opt in for the experience will see in-game betting prompts and live odds from BetMGM as well as interactive trivia questions and other features showcased through pop-ups on their screen.
