Microgaming bags itself another major franchise
Microgaming is sometimes best-known for their series of franchise slots. In short, these would-be slot machine games which are connected to major comic books, characters, celebrities or movie series. Just in time for Halloween, Microgaming have managed to snap up another big fish in the film industry. That’s right, Microgaming have done a deal with Compass International Pictures to release a slot based on the 1978 John Carpenter slasher flick, Halloween.
Halloween theme
Halloween is regarded as one of the best horror movies of all time, and is regularly credited with creating the “Scream Queen” genre of actress, thanks to Jamie Lee Curtis’ acting. Now, Microgaming are getting in on the film’s success, over almost 40 years after it was released.
About the Slot
Halloween is set for a third quarter release, so players are likely to be able to find this slot machine game just in time for the special holiday of the same name. Although we do not yet have a clear idea of just what the Halloween slot machine will be able to deliver – in terms of features – we can make an educated guess. Expect a 243 ways to win payline structure, multiple free spin bonuses, and randomly triggered features.
Based on the success of Microgaming’s other movie and franchise-themed slot machine games, such as Jurassic Park, Terminator 2, Tomb Raider, Hitman, Game of Thrones, and Bridesmaids, we can only imagine that Halloween will go on to do rather well for itself when it is finally launched.
Keep your Eyes Open
More to the point, there will probably also be a host of promos and bonuses attached to the launch of the new slot machine game, when it is finally unveiled at online casinos across the net later on this year.
