Microgaming Acquires Tarzan Brand
Published on by Becky M.
Microgaming has acquired sole rights to the Tarzan name for online slot games. This acquisition is the result of a licensing agreement with Edgar Rice Burroughs. The agreement was arranged for Burroughs and Microgaming by the Creative Licensing Corporation.
Much Loved Story
Tarzan of the Apes was written by Edgar Rice Burroughs in 1912, and the enduring tale is still much loved by readers and audiences around the world. The character of Tarzan has been immortalized on screen more times than any other figure – 29 actors have become the jungle hero since 1918. Tarzan has also featured on television many times, and has been depicted on stage as well as in print.
Tarzan Slot
The Tarzan online slot will be a further addition to Microgaming’s impressive catalogue of games that has grown from strength to strength in recent years. We should be able to play the new slot later in 2016, and it will be available for iGamers via their mobiles, tablets or PCs.Tarzan is, of course, the main focus of the new online slot. He will be joined by a few of his comrades, including Jane and Archimedes among others. There will be loads of special little extras for us to enjoy, accompanied by the dulcet tones of Tarzan’s infamous roar.
The Sky’s The Limit!
Roger Raatgever is the Chief Executive Officer at Microgaming, and is ‘excited’ about the new licensing agreement and the online slot that is arising from that. He says that ‘our highly talented games team relish working with a new brand, to build a game that celebrates and embraces it’. Raatgever says that this will be a game that slot fans will love, and that we ‘can look forward to the game’s release this winter’.James Sullos is President of Edgar Rice Burroughs, and says that they ‘could not be more pleased’ to be working with Microgaming. Looks like the sky really is the limit with this new game!
