Official Austin Powers Online-Gambling Is a Thing Now
 |
Have you ever wondered where licenses go when they die? When every last scrap of possible appeal has been wrung from the rotting corpse of what was once a golden goose, to the point that the earth has been scorched for even an inevitable reboot, what then?
Endemol Games will create a suite of online real-money games such as online Slots, online Bingo and online Scratch Cards. The games will be available to providers on multiple platforms and the Endemol Games team will be at the ICE conference to promote their launch plans for these new Austin Powers games.
“We’re proud of our portfolio which already includes some of the most popular brands in entertainment and the Austin Powers film franchise is a fantastic addition to our catalogue,” said Owain Walbyoff, MD of Endemol Games. “The brand is rich with assets and talent and its widespread appeal will help operators engage players via bonuses featuring iconic film scenes and memorable movie clips. We’re really excited to announce such a high profile deal with Warner Bros. Consumer Products just ahead of this week’s ICE conference.”
To paraphrase that one guy in American Movie who’s obsessed with scratch cards, at least this way you win sometimes. If you just give Mike Myers your money for a sequel, you always lose.
