Microgaming Welcomes Aurum Signature Studios

In its ever-present vision to deliver unique online gaming solutions, Microgaming has teamed up with yet another digital software studio. The Isle of Man iGaming platform developer has inked a new deal with independent software firm, Aurum Signature Studios. Aurum is a bespoke slot specialist whose expert design team is sure to help diversify the Microgaming Quickfire platform.

Microgaming has spent the last decade collaborating with a vast number of hand-picked, independent game design labs. Their partnership with Aurum is a milestone for Microgaming, marking the company’s first contract with a dedicated provider a digital bespoke slot machines. The studio’s sole focus will be the creation of exclusive, tailor-made slots for Microgaming’s operative casino clients.

Aurum Online Slots Coming to Microgaming Casinos

Aurum is a relatively new company with a small portfolio of about 20 online slots under its digital belt. that’s not uncommon for a small studio, and is exactly the type of exclusivity partnerships Microgaming seeks out. They look for small development labs with a creative team of expert designers that can add unique, quality productions to their platform. Aurum Signature Studios fits the bill perfectly.

In fact, Aurum has been working for Microgaming a lot longer than the announcement would suggest. Before getting pen to paper, executives with the world’s leading iGaming supplier asked Aurum to prove their worth by creating an addition to Microgaming’s most famous online slots network known as Mega Moolah. Aurum filled the order with the November 30, 2020 release of the all new Jungle Mega Moolah, a 5-reel, 25-line slot featuring the epic “Millionaire Maker” progressive jackpot.

Other creations in the Aurum slots catalog include The Immortal Captain Rizk, and A Tale of Elves, both released in November 2020. A Tale of Elves is a Christmas-slot featuring thematic wilds, free spins, and 243 ways to win. The Immortal Captain Rizk is an interesting edition, especially for fans of Microgaming’s timeless Immortal Romance Slot. It is essentially a re-skin of that immensely popular game, with a superhero theme as the graphic overlay.

Enthusiastic Back-Patting from Company Heads

As always, Microgaming’s special announcement press release came with back-patting compliments from the heads of both companies. Microgaming CEO John Coleman had this to say:

“Our studios strategy sees Microgaming work closely with a variety of independent game developers to ensure our content remains varied and innovative. Aurum are a strong addition to our network, and will be helping to address increasing customer demand for uniquely personalised game content. We welcome the team on board.”

The enthusiasm continues with these comments from Madelein Özok, Head of Aurum Signature Studios:

“We’re thrilled and honoured to team up with Microgaming. The sheer scale of the company means our games will have further reach via more tier-one operators than any other partner could have offered. It’s our mission to create exciting, innovative games, and we knew we were on the right track when Microgaming chose to exclusively launch Aurum as its bespoke provider.”

No word yet on what the Aurum online slots designers will be cooking up next, now that they’ve been officially contracted for bespoke development. I imagine Microgaming’s online casino licensees will be lining up to order their own “Aurum Signature” content in the coming weeks.
