BetMGM becomes first online casino to launch Anaxi's Buffalo slot

iGaming and sports betting operator BetMGM announced that the Buffalo slot has been made available at its online casino. BetMGM is the world’s first online casino to offer the online Buffalo slot, the digital version of the land-based casino favorite. 

Buffalo now is available to play at BetMGM in New Jersey and the operator plans to launch the game in the near future in Pennsylvania and Michigan. The title brings to the online world the Buffalo slot machine by Aristocrat which, for over a decade at brick-and-mortar casinos, has been gaining strong popularity.

Anaxi, Aristocrat’s online Real Money Gaming business, has reimagined the fan favorite for online play. Buffalo is a 20-line 5x4 slot game where players aim to win by filling the screen with Buffalo symbols. 

“BetMGM is honored to be the first online destination for Buffalo,” said Matt Prevost, Chief Revenue Officer, BetMGM. “We are ready to bring the thrill and excitement of Buffalo to our players in New Jersey and additional states this fall. Anaxi captured the fast-paced elements of Buffalo which players love and are now able to experience in the palm of their hands.”

The launch builds on a strategic partnership between Anaxi and BetMGM, which was first announced in February this year. Buffalo is the first of Anaxi’s gaming content available at BetMGM. 

Cath Burns, Chief Operating Officer of Anaxi, also shared excitement over the product launch: “The stampede has officially begun, and we’re thrilled that BetMGM players can now enjoy the iconic Buffalo game online."

BetMGM’s online casino is home to over 1,500 games and one of the largest state-by-state exclusive jackpot networks. During the first half of 2023, the company awarded nearly $75 million in jackpots and is on pace to shatter the $100 million jackpot milestone set in 2022.

Aristocrat’s online version of the long-standing slot title Buffalo was announced earlier this week, marking the title's debut in the digital gaming domain. The game is set to be rolled out not only within the United States but also internationally, the company said.

"Players can also expect to see even more iconic content reimagined online in the near future as Anaxi continues its commitment to evolve Aristocrat's favorite titles and innovative brand families," Aristocrat's Anaxi stated.
