PRAGMATIC PLAY CONTINUES TO RAISE THE BAR BY GIVING AWAY €1,000,000 PER MONTH THROUGH THEIR POWERHOUSE DROPS & WINS PROMOTION
Pragmatic Play, a leading content provider to the iGaming industry, will keep delivering consistent prizes to players as its powerhouse promotion Drops & Wins continues with a winter edition. Players and operators will be delighted to hear that the staggering prize pool of €1,000,000 per month is being maintained.
The Drops and Wins promotion was created by Pragmatic Play and is one of the largest prize pools ever fully sponsored by a game provider. The prize pool is split 50/50 between Slots and Live Casino. The winter edition takes place from the 17th November to the 9th February as Pragmatic Play has no intention of stopping the promotion that represents their relentless commitment to take player entertainment to the next level.
The winter edition of Drops and Wins brings a huge upgrade as Pragmatic Play is now including the Prize Drops feature in all Live Casino titles. Prize Drop mechanics can reward players completely at random as they place real-money qualifying bets in any of the games. The ‘anytime, anywhere’ nature of Prize Drops will now add a new layer of excitement to Pragmatic Play’s already innovative Live Casino portfolio.
Prize Drops is a very popular in-game promotional tool for Pragmatic Play’s iconic Slot favourites such as such as The Dog House Megaways along with new releases such as Gates of Olympus, but it is completely unique for Live Casino games across the whole industry.
This means that the most hotly anticipated Pragmatic Play Live Casino release of the year will have Prize Drops available for players. Sweet Bonanza CandyLand is the Live Casino version of the hugely successful candy-themed slot Sweet Bonanza
Yossi Barzely, Chief Business Development Officer at Pragmatic Play, said: “The Drops and Wins feature has been well received by both players and operators since its inception. The idea behind Drops and Wins was simple but profound, we tried to give players more of the feeling they seek when playing our games, the winning feeling. By adding Prize Drops to our Live Casino offering, we feel this brings another dimension of excitement to this great product.
Sweet Bonanza Candyland is going to turn some heads for sure when it launches in November, and by including Prize Drops, we are aiming to make a great product even better.”
Pragmatic Play currently produces up to five new Slot titles a month, while also delivering Live Casino and Bingo games as part of its multi-product portfolio, available through one single API.
