TORONTO, Nov. 10, 2017 /PRNewswire/ - The Stars Group Inc.
today announced the launch of Stars Mega Spin, its proprietary
space-themed progressive jackpot slot game exclusive to the
PokerStars Casino brand that guarantees a minimum $1 million jackpot.
Stars Mega Spin is the latest innovation from The Stars Group
and the second million-dollar progressive jackpot created by its
in-house game development team. The slot shares a linked Mega
Jackpot with Millionaires Island, which launched exclusively on
PokerStars Casino at the beginning of the year and has since
delivered five million-dollar
winners.
Stars Mega Spin rolled out this week in the United Kingdom and shared liquidity markets
where PokerStars Casino is offered, and is available to play on
desktop, web and mobile in those jurisdictions with stakes ranging
from $0.50 to $50. Millionaires
Island also offers a €1 million jackpot exclusively on PokerStars
Casino in Italy.
"Since its launch almost three years ago, PokerStars Casino has
quickly grown its range of table games and slots, but we are
particularly proud to offer our second in-house progressive
million-dollar jackpot slots game to our customers," said Bo
Wänghammar, Managing Director of PokerStars Casino. "We are the
only online casino operator that is currently providing exclusive
million dollar progressive jackpots using only its own
customers."
