There are only a couple of companies operating in the 3D online casino and poker gambling market and Playwize has now sold its 3D poker software to Microgaming. Playwize closed shop just recently and announced that the company would sell off assets as a way to pay back debt. Mircogaming, a giant in the online casino software development industry was more than willing to scoop up this innovative technology.
Microgaming has proven a truly innovative and forward-thinking company. Although 3D poker and online casino gambling is only a niche market right now, Microgaming has the influence and innovation to really see this sector of the industry come to its full potential. Playwize’s software allows online casino poker gamblers a customizable immersive 3D experience right from their home computers. Microgaming’s current software is enjoyed at some of the largest internet casinos in the world – that is a key reason why CEO Roger Raatgever feels that the technology will really reach a wider audience now that the games and technology are a part of the Microgaming stable.
The top operating online casinos in the world that operate on the Microgaming platform will soon have access to the 3D technology. The deal was only recently finalized but Microgaming anticipates releasing new 3D poker games as a part of the company’s platform and portfolio of games in the very near future.
