DraftKings has joined forces with slots influencer Brian Christopher to add Aristocrat Gaming’s Lightning Link to the operator’s game catalog.

To mark the launch, Christopher will livestream from Foxwoods Resort Casino in Connecticut on July 23.

The live stream will kick off a series of gameplay content, which will bring several high-profile retail games online. Christopher will also be featured in the DraftKings Casino app and – as is a feature of Christopher’s approach – DraftKings customers will be treated to IRL experiences, exclusive activations, and VIP events.

“Lightning Link is one of the most iconic and recognizable slot franchises in gaming, and we’re excited to bring this experience to DraftKings Casino customers,” said Christian Bogstrand, Executive Vice President and General Manager of iGaming at DraftKings.
