Online casino software developers have a busy time of it – as soon as one new game or feature is completed they move on to the next. They face a relentless task of keeping abreast of the latest software developments, mobile phone technology and player trends to constantly figure out new and wonderful playing experiences that are truly cutting edge.

Non Exclusivity

Online casino brands are increasingly using more than one software developer for different platforms. Sites such as Betfair and William Hill Casino are now using Playtech for their online casinos but also run bingo, arcade and other sites that use different software developers such as Virtue Fusion and Orbis Technology. This usage of multiple online software houses gives players maximum choice and a great range of features.

Themed Fun

Another emerging theme is the public's appetite for movie, TV and board game themes in their games. Virtue Fusion has a popular Deal or No Deal, Cryptologic has Marvel comic-themed slots and other software houses have products that they have become renowned for too.

Latest Game Features

It's not only the topic of games that is ever changing but the features within them are getting ever more sophisticated. Microgaming's new Thunderstruck II game has a unique player achievements structure that remembers returning players' past wins and allows cumulative play.

Their Great Galazy Grab game memorizes players' last location so that they can take breaks from games and then continue playing the same game at a later time or date.

Their innovative My Slot takes on a whole new stance, allowing the personalization of their slot with photos, color schemes and music.

Playing On the Move

The development of the mobile gaming market is well documented. Playtech are one software house with their finger well and truly on the pulse. Their next generation of mobile casino software negates the need for download and is supporting a growing number of online casino games that players can access any time, any place, any where.
