Everi has partnered with independent game design studio bZillions for the development of new gaming content. The new partnership, focused on creating games for Everi’s mForce platform, calls for the bZillions game development team to develop content for at least ten new games for several of the company’s newest gaming cabinets – including the Empire MPX (“E43”) and the Empire 5527 (“E5527”) – over the next 12 months.
bZillions is led by Steve Weiss, an industry veteran with more than 30 years of casino game development and manufacturing experience, including as co-founder and CEO of game design company Colossal Gaming, Inc. which developed a number of player-popular games throughout the years. bZillions’ team of game developers has extensive expertise in developing games for both Class III and Class II markets with its latest success developing a significant large-format gaming device.
