Wizard Games, a subsidiary of NeoGames S.A, has signed an agreement with iGaming and sports betting operator BetMGM. The operator will offer New Jersey players its games through BetMGM’s casino platforms.

The newest deal builds upon an existing partnership between the two companies. New Jersey is the second state to offer Wizard Games’ products to BetMGM users. West Virginia went live with Wizard’s platform in February 2022.

Players in New Jersey will have access to more than 12,000 of Wizard’s game titles through BetMGM Casino, Borgata Casino and Party Casino through Pariplay’s Fusion. A few of the well-known titles include Dragons of the North, Spirit of Mustang and Wolf Riches.

Wizard Games Managing Director Joey Hurtado said: “Our partnership with BetMGM is one we’re extremely proud of, so naturally we are delighted to be expanding into New Jersey, one of the most iconic gaming markets in the US Our games continue to perform well in the States and we’re very pleased to increase our footprint in North America.”

Wizard Games’ portfolio has more than 120 titles, including Rumble Rhino, Wolf Riches and Dragons of the North. Its titles are available in Latin America, North American and in more than 20 regulated jurisdictions throughout Europe.

Growth in North America remains a particular focus for the company. Wizard Games has an existing North American foothold in New Jersey, West Virginia and in the Canadian province of Alberta.

The company recently went live in the Canadian province of Ontario. The company recently gained approval from the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) and has worked with operators 888casino and BetMGM to release its games to Ontario players.

BetMGM Director of Gaming Oliver Bartlett commented: “Wizard Games combines innovative mechanics with exciting gameplay and themes, and we’ve been very impressed with how the products have performed so far. Expanding our relationship into a new market is a logical next step for both parties, and we’re confident that it will have a positive outcome.”

MGM Resorts and BetMGM recently joined the American Gaming Association and became official partners of its “Have A Game Plan. Bet Responsibly” campaign.

Responsible gaming education remains a key focus as BetMGM continues to expand its sports betting platform to new jurisdictions. BetMGM also provides resources to help customers play responsibly.
