MGM launches mobile first in US

MGM Resorts has launched what it describes as the first real-money mobile gambling platform to be offered by a casino in the US.

The easyPlay Mobile Tournaments platform, developed by mobile gaming technology company oneLIVE inc, allows guests at nine Las Vegas resorts to compete with other players in a variety of tournament games using their mobile devices or InteractivePro Tables located at MGM’s properties.

MGM said scheduled tournaments will include slots, bingo and video poker as well as social, casual and console games.

“The introduction of easyPLAY Mobile Tournaments at our MGM Resorts properties gives our guests an exciting, new opportunity to play their favourite games while enjoying the best Las Vegas has to offer,” said Tom Mikulich, senior vice president of business development for MGM.

“The tournaments are extremely user-friendly, provide players with a variety of game options including slots and bingo, among others, and bring an element of competition that our guests will enjoy whether they are sitting at a bar enjoying a drink or simply hanging out by the pool.”
