When NYX Interactive, a Swedish gambling operator, acquired the online gaming developer NextGen many industry watchers expected that this was a move to launch a new mobile casino. This month, the company has unveiled its new online casino which is among the first to explicitly target mobile users on a variety of devices.
While other online casinos have long had a mobile presence – this was usually just an outgrowth of their regular online casino with the standard games shrunk to fit the screen of a mobile device. Players were happy that they could play casino games on the go but weren’t thrilled with the graphics or quality of game play. Now that mobile devices are in many ways more powerful and flexible than traditional computing devices like laptops and desktops – mobile gaming is experiencing something of a renaissance.
According to CEO David Flynn, the new mobile casino combines NexGen’s intuitive game design with the secure management backend of NYX Interactive. It also works on all mobile platforms such as Andriod, iPad, iPhone, Blackberry, and Windows Mobile.
So far the most popular game on the new NYX Interactive site has been Blackjack followed by roulette and baccarat. Plans for a mobile live casino are also underway as data plans on mobile devices allow for more bandwidth intensive activities like streaming video to take place with ease.
The best thing about this new mobile gaming platform is that it is able to render complex 3D graphics with less computing power than ever needed before. One of the most beloved features of Apple’s iPad is that it offers a high definition screen with vibrant colors. Now mobile gamers can actually play games that take advantage of this great monitor with rich details.
Top online casinos like Casino Euro, Roxy Palace, Europa Casino, and Spin Palace are top candidates to review the new mobile gaming solution offered by NYX Interactive. Other white label operators and new casino license applicants have also expressed interest in leveraging the power of this new mobile gaming application.
