Yggdrasil Unveils Two New Blackjack Releases

Back

Provider of premium online gaming solutions, Yggdrasil, has advanced its Blackjack offering once again! The company introduced a duo comprised of Lucky Blackjack alongside an upgraded version of Sonya Blackjack.

With the implementation of motion-capture technology used to replicate dealer's movements, the Swedish iGaming supplier has provided in-game virtual dealers with the ability to directly engage with players in astonishingly lifelike fashion.

Reinvention of Live Casino

Last year, the company has decided to rethink the entire live table games segment by releasing the unique Sonya Blackjack.

The game was received with accolades by the audience. It offered a memorable playing atmosphere with diverse features...

...and the key one was a 3D dealer named Sonya Blackjack. The revamped title now also includes side bets.

As their chief product officer, Krzysztof Opalka explained, the company was keen on “reinventing online casino with Sonya Blackjack, as it showed huge success during the live show at last year's ICE”.

The Swedish brand is now enhancing its catalog even further with the presentation of a captivating Irish-themed release - Lucky Blackjack!

Breakthrough of New Technology

Lucky, an animated character, deals the game like a real pro and - much like his counterpart Sonya - provides two optional side bets, Lucky Lucky and Lucky Ladies. Realistic quality of the game is ensured with the use of state-of-the-art 3D effects.

Moreover, both titles include the Pre-Decision and Swifter Animations feature, which allows for faster gameplay. Another novelty worthy of mentioning is...

...Picture-in-Picture History, technology that enables participants to replay their winning hands in full video details.

The pair of blackjack titles also provides multiplayer options to its users. Both games are able to accommodate up to three players at a single table, thus delivering a fully interactive, shared casino experience.

The innovative creative force behind Yggdrasil has created Lucky Blackjack as a unique combo of live and RNG casino game on its proprietary REDUX technology platform.

Marcus Honney, head of table games at the company, states:

“The release of Lucky Blackjack and the new Sonya Blackjack features is really exciting for us as it marks the evolution of our interactive table game offering.”

With multiplayer options, and an added layer of player engagement in the form of side bets, Lucky Blackjack, and the newly-upgraded Sonya Blackjack, are some of the most engaging, immersive table titles on the market today.”

A Time Travel To Best-Performing Releases

During December, typically the most active month for the gaming industry, Yggdrasil released Time Travel Tigers which was added to GVC’s stock of best-performing releases.

As Jonas Strandman, the brand’s head of slots stated back:

“Being able to design highly creative games in a universe of our choosing is always great fun for the development team, and the work put in to create multiple worlds has been a fascinating challenge.”

The same period also marked the premiere of their first ever branded title, Nitro Circus, actively promoted as an entertainment piece with “biggest stars, greatest stunts and craziest vehicles”.
