Scientific Games Launches Industry’s First Syndicated Slots Jackpot with Betsson
Under Scientific Games’ OpenGaming™ brand, Mega Drop™ Quest Syndicated Jackpots bring community-based jackpots online.
Scientific Games Corporation has unveiled the world’s first syndicated jackpots product for the online casino market, which has gone live for a limited exclusive period with Betsson.
Under Scientific Games’ OpenGaming brand, the Mega Drop Quest syndicated jackpot product allows for groups of people to ‘win together’ and create more chances of winning big prizes within a slot game. Players are able to join others to collectively win a percentage of a larger jackpot, allowing for more accessibility and introducing a community gaming component.
Betsson is the first Scientific Games iGaming partner to launch with the innovation, which will be available across the Open Gaming System network in January 2020. The initial network-wide launch will debut in Europe, with additional global territory release dates to be announced.
Dylan Slaney, SVP Casino for SG Digital, said, “It is important that we as suppliers embrace syndicates and help build solutions that simplify community games to make them accessible and enjoyable for all players. This has been one of the greatest challenges our team has undertaken, and we feel that we have risen to the occasion, creating a value proposition that goes well beyond a ‘big win’. We are proud to have delivered a product that supports the community vision of our platform and are thrilled to partner with Betsson for this first release to market.”
The first game available under the Mega Drop Quest brand is Nessie’s Mega Drop Quest. The game reimagines the player experience with syndicated jackpots, a multiplier bonus wheel, added wilds and free games all delivered through a unique double reel mechanic triggered by Nessie, the world famous Loch Ness monster.
Phil Lam, Head of Gaming at Betsson said, “Social gaming is set to become an important aspect of online casinos in the coming year. We’ve been very impressed with Scientific Games’ new Mega Drop Quest syndicated jackpot, which is sure to create a fun and engaging experience for groups of players, as they look to win big prizes together. We’re proud to be the first to launch this exciting concept.”

PRAGMATIC PLAY BRINGS LEGENDARY SLOTS IP TO LIVE CASINO WITH GATES OF OLYMPUS ROULETTE
Pragmatic Play, a leading iGaming content supplier, has launched Gates of Olympus Roulette, a live casino experience that merges classic roulette with thrilling slot-action, delivering a game show truly fit for the gods.
Set in a temple-inspired studio with a marble-encased roulette wheel at its centre, the game immerses players in a Grecian fantasy world, complete with striking visuals, dramatic sounds, and charismatic presenters.
Each spin offers the chance to hit a Bonus Number and up to seven Lucky Numbers, carrying multipliers of 50x–250x to boost straight-up bets. The Super Booster feature further amplifies wins by multiplying the Bonus and selected Lucky Numbers 2x–10x, enabling potential payouts of up to 2,500x in the base game and 10,000x in the bonus round.
Landing the Bonus Number triggers the Gates of Olympus bonus game, where Zeus presides over a 6×5 slots grid. Starting with 15 spins, players win whenever 8–12+ matching symbols appear anywhere on the reels. Multipliers up to 500x can strike randomly on any spin or tumble, and three or more scatters award five additional spins.
Following the success of Sweet Bonanza CandyLand, which brought the iconic Sweet Bonanza slot to live casino audiences, Gates of Olympus Roulette underscores Pragmatic Play’s expertise in transforming beloved slot IPs into cross-vertical live experiences. The launch complements recent game show hits like Money Time and Mega Roulette 3000.
Sharon McHugh, Director of Public Relations at Pragmatic Play, said:
“Gates of Olympus Roulette is a spectacular addition to our portfolio, bringing one of our most celebrated IPs into the live casino spotlight. The epic studio design, dynamic roulette-slot fusion, and immersive Grecian theme showcase Pragmatic Play’s commitment to creating truly standout player experiences.”
