Microgaming Partners with PearFiction Studios
Microgaming has entered into a partnership with PearFiction Studios. As per the deal, the Montreal-based games designer will supply highly creative content to Microgaming’s platform.
The exclusive partnership kicks off on February 4 with the launch of mobster escapade, Chicago Gold. This high-volatility, 40-payline slot is packed with free spins and respins and will be PearFiction’s first major global game to feature on the Microgaming network. Chicago Gold introduces exciting new bonus features like Cash Collection and the Big Boss Jackpot Reveal. It will be followed swiftly onto the network by PearFiction’s wild prehistoric adventure Blazing Mammoth.
PearFiction Studios previously worked with Microgaming on a one-off collaboration to create punk rock band themed game, The Smashing Biscuit. This success, coupled with Microgaming’s commitment to partnering with the most vibrant new talent, has prompted the two companies to take the relationship to the next stage.
PearFiction Studios’ CEO Thierry Semoff said the scope and scale of the Microgaming platform made this a transformational distribution deal for his blossoming studio.
“When an industry pioneer like Microgaming wants you on board, it’s a real recognition that the games you’re creating are good and that all your hard work is paying off,” Thierry Semoff, CEO of PearFiction Studios, said.
“PearFiction Studios are proven innovators who marry great artwork with technical insights, game performance and a huge sense of fun. Join us on 28 January when we take a closer look at Chicago Gold and learn more about the PearFiction Studios team,” Andrew Booth, Director of Games at Microgaming, said.
