BetMGM Launches Casino in West Virginia

BetMGM, the online betting brand owned jointly by MGM Resorts and GVC Holdings, last week launched a BetMGM Casino in West Virginia, delivering a wide range of online casino games to players in the Mountain State.

BetMGM Casino will launch with 30 games ranging from best-in-class Blackjack and Roulette games to a host of slots, including West Virginia’s only online progressive jackpot-linked games with the potential for huge payouts with every spin. The new casino product will be presented as a dedicated tab within the BetMGM Sports West Virginia mobile app, complementing BetMGM’s market-leading sports betting product with an interactive and comprehensive online casino experience.

“The addition of the leading iGaming offering in West Virginia is a powerful differentiator for BetMGM,” said Adam Greenblatt, CEO of BetMGM. “With the largest slate of casino games in the state, we’re confident that our superior offering will quickly become the online gaming destination of choice for players.”

Available for download on both iOS and Android, as well as accessible via desktop, BetMGM Casino features an extensive game line-up that includes the popular jackpot slot title ‘MGM Grand Millions’ which utilizes Las Vegas icons for its reel symbols. The slots suite of games also features an exciting free spin module and branded table games.

BetMGM Casino operates in conjunction with The Greenbrier, the mountain luxury resort synonymous with world-class hospitality in West Virginia. BetMGM Casino is also available in New Jersey and will be available in Pennsylvania and Michigan in the coming months, subject to obtaining regulatory approvals.
