16 December 2015, Solihull, UK (Press Release): CORE Gaming, the world-leading HTML5 gambling software house, and SIS, major supplier of content to the betting industry, are looking to push the boundaries of on-demand, mobile-optimised gaming after agreeing a software development partnership.
The two companies, who are working together on a host of innovative projects, began their association with the release, last week, of a suite of on-demand Virtual Racing games through Sky Vegas.
The new game was created through a collaboration between SIS’s use of 3D HTML, the very latest 3D browser technology and CORE Gaming’s market-leading HTML framework.
The racing games are a first-of-its-kind offering as they allow punters to bet on horse, greyhound and cycle racing whenever and wherever they want, due to the truly on-demand nature of the offering, optimised for play via mobiles and tablets, but also playable on desktop.
In addition, there are two quick-fire, seasonal racing games, based on Santas racing in two fun formats.
Justin Chamberlain, Chief Executive of CORE Gaming, said: “Our partnership with SIS is a natural progression in our mission to push the technological boundaries in the gambling industry.
“SIS has developed superb browser-based playouts which we have successfully integrated into our world-leading HTML framework, making them available on demand to players across any channel.
“By taking what SIS had achieved and adding a little CORE magic, we knew that Sky Vegas would be keen to be first movers for this product and we were happy to be instrumental in bringing the parties together.
“We want to shake up the space with new ways for players to engage with virtual sports and new technologies for our operator partners to leverage better financial performance from these games.”
These on-demand racing games, available in 2D and 3D, can be continually updated throughout their lifetime, are sure to be a hit with punters, who will appreciate the ease-of-play through the slick and stylish user interface.
Odds are available on all six runners in each race, with bets available including Win, Each Way, Forecast and Tricast before the player presses the ‘start race’ button.
Marc Thomas, Head of Product for SIS, said: “We are really excited to be working with CORE Gaming because of their unparalleled position as one of the most innovative companies in the games development sector today.
“This is just the first in a number of unique mobile initiatives that we will bring to market together – delivering fast gameplay, low data consumption for users and a high return for our clients across mobile and online casino. These innovative new games offer an on-demand sports betting experience, with a casino mechanic, which provides operators with a real crossover product for their sites.”
