Under the agreement, NetEnt will deliver its range of Live Casino content, including roulette and blackjack, to the various gaming websites that run on the MicroGame platform.

In 2014 NetEnt entered 24 new Live Casino agreements and 28 customers were launched.

“MicroGame is an important partner for NetEnt and their strong position in the Italian gaming market makes them an excellent choice for the roll out of our world-class Live Casino product,” Bradamante said. “Italy continues to be a key market for NetEnt, I have high expectations for our live entertainment product and I’m very pleased that we are broadening our offering within the Italian market.”
