Rush Street Interactive expanded its portfolio in West Virginia by introducing BetRivers Online Casino & Sportsbook in 2022. Currently, Rush Street has joined forces with Fantasma Games to offer players an exceptional and exhilarating gaming experience that goes beyond traditional gambling.
West Virginia players could experience a brand new casino gaming adventure through this partnership.
What does the partnership mean for players in West Virginia?
At present, there exist seven online casinos in West Virginia, with an upcoming addition by Hacksaw Gaming set to become the eighth choice for bettors in the Mountain State.
The recently formed alliance between Rush Street (RSI) and Fantasma will extend to both the BetRivers app and PlaySugarHouse.com. This collaboration is expected to significantly increase the number of visitors to these platforms and potentially divert customers from competing sites.
According to RSI CEO Richard Schwartz, Fantasma Games provides a unique experience compared to traditional slot games.
“Our BetRivers players will be provided with new entertainment experiences as they indulge in visually stunning slots that seamlessly blend captivating visuals with gameplay centered around narratives.”
Around 75% of RSI’s revenue in Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia comes from IGaming. The company aims to convert a significant number of sports bettors into online casino patrons in states where online gambling is permitted.
Once Fantasma launches on RSI’s betting sites, West Virginia players can expect an increase in the number of promotions available to them.
Additionally, it may result in a decrease in the number of individuals participating in games at physical casinos, as the captivating nature of online games might prompt players to choose the convenience of playing on mobile apps from the comfort of their own couches instead of making a trip to a casino.
Fantasma offers 27 different gambling games
Fantasma Games, established in 2016, boasts a presence in over 50 countries through partnerships with over 200 operators. Notable among these are BetMGM Casino WV, DraftKings, LeoVegas, Paddy Power, and Betsson.
Currently, the company is headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, and provides a collection of 27 diverse mobile gambling games.
When the Wicked Kitty makes an appearance, Fantasma’s newest release, “Wicked Kitty,” offers a bonus feature that expands the reels.
Fantasma’s games include:
- Volatile Egypt
- Goat Rush
- Alice in Adventureland
- Desert Shark
- Super Sumo
