PokerStars Integrates Microgaming’s Quickfire Platform

Microgaming’s Quickfire platform is one of the most powerful online casino tools in existence. It is the force behind many of the world’s most popular and beloved online progressive slots including Mega Moolah, Thunderstruck II, and Immortal Romance. Meanwhile PokerStars is one of the world’s most frequented online poker rooms, and is an up and coming force in the world of casino games.

Now, these two huge forces in online gaming have partnered up to create what will without a doubt be one of the strongest partnerships in the world.

Microgaming Extends Its Reach Even Further

On Microgaming’s side, seizing the opportunity to offer its games on a platform enjoying as much brand loyalty as PokerStars was a no-brainer. Even for such a large and omni-present developer, PokerStars offers both legacy and revenue opportunities:

“It’s a great achievement to see Quickfire live on PokerStars. They are a renowned gaming brand with a huge player base, and we believe Microgaming content is the perfect fit for their casino customers. We will continue to work closely with PokerStars as they look to grow their games portfolio through Quickfire; this will be a long and fruitful relationship for both parties,” said Andrew Clucas, Director of Quickfire at Microgaming via a press release.

PokerStars Online Casino Coming Into Its Own

Originally conceived as a poker-room-only site, recent years have seen PokerStars branch out into other forms of online casino gaming. Management has sought to expand and transfer the site’s reputation for offering excellent player experiences in poker over to online casino and sports betting as well. This made a integrating with one of the world’s leading online casino developers a no-brainer as well:

“We are very pleased that our players now have access to some of the most popular games in the online casino industry, further strengthening our existing product offering,” said Bo Wänghammar, Director of PokerStars Casino Operations.

Online Casino Players The True Winners

When two titans of the online gaming world come together, it’s certainly great new for them. Microgaming and PokerStars will benefit greatly from this new partnership. In the end however, the players are the big winners. Given the amazing reputations and capabilities involved in this integration, it will be exciting to see what new innovations are in the works in the coming months and years.
