Casino.exe will initially feature four new games, including Penalty Shootout, Bomb Squad, Wheel of Time, and Courier Sweeper, as well as existing third-party and Rivalry-developed games, including Aviator and Rushlane.
Steven Salz, CEO & Co-Founder of Rivalry, said: “Our technology and creative capabilities continue to drive meaningful opportunities across our business where we can innovate on product and ultimately reimagine the betting experience for a younger audience that craves interactive entertainment."
"The launch of Casino.exe will allow us to further diversify our offering in a way that stays true to our brand and separates our product from others.
