Light & Wonder and Penn Entertainment Tuesday announced the launch of Hollywood Casino at Greektown-branded live-dealer tables on Penn’s online Hollywood Casino platform in Michigan. The launch marks the first time Light & Wonder Live has created live-dealer tables using an operator’s brand in Michigan, as well as the first time that Penn has launched online casino games with local-property branding.
“We expect that the combination of the Hollywood Casino brand and our features will make for a relevant and fun gaming experience in North America,” said Light & Wonder VP Commercial & Managing Director, U.S. iGaming Dana Jackel. “Penn Entertainment’s players will love our live-dealer casino portfolio.”
The selection of new titles includes Hollywood Casino at Greektown-branded blackjack tables in Michigan and a new live-dealer version of Lucky Cat Baccarat, an original title from the in-house Penn Game Studios. Penn has also added Light & Wonder casino titles to Hollywood Casino in Michigan and theScore Bet Sportsbook & Casino in Ontario, Canada.
“The addition of Light & Wonder’s games enhances our overall online casino offering in the state and creates important omnichannel touchpoints between our Greektown property and our Hollywood Casino product,” said Penn Interactive Vice President of Operations Jason Birney.
