BetMGM Casino debuts new exclusive games during MLB All-Star break

The National League may have floundered in the MLB All-Star Game in Philadelphia, but BetMGM Casino certainly shined in the City of Brotherly Love. In addition to hosting various interactive experiences throughout the week, BetMGM Casino also rolled out two new MLB-inspired casino games online that are now live for its users.

Ahead of the American League coasting to an All-Star victory, BetMGM flocked to Citizens Bank Park to showcase all it has to offer.

In partnership with MLB, officials with the gambling company put on demonstrations of games found on the BetMGM Casino app while also hosting a VIP experience with Hall of Famer Derek Jeter. Combined with ample signage throughout the ballpark, BetMGM made its presence felt around baseball's midseason showcase.

The entire event came on the heels of MGM Resorts International renewing its partnership with MLB, extending a relationship that began in 2018 and resulted in BetMGM becoming the league's first official gaming and sports betting partners.

"All-Star Week gives BetMGM the opportunity to deliver once-in-a-lifetime moments and bring fans closer to the action," Matt Prevost, chief revenue officer at BetMGM, said in a statement. "Through partnerships with Major League Baseball and Derek Jeter, including exclusive casino games and VIP meet-and-greet opportunities, we're bringing that vision to life in new ways."

At the center of BetMGM Casino's demonstration of new casino games online were two MLB-themed titles that are exclusive to the platform.

Among them is Derek Jeter LuckyTap, obviously based on the former New York Yankee and five-time World Series champion. In this game, newly added to the no deposit bonus casino, users are put in the shoes of the legendary shortstop as they look to catch incoming baseballs to earn prizes and unlock bonus opportunities.

The other new online casino real money game is Phillies LuckyTap, named for the All-Star Game's host franchise. Users in this title step up to the plate for a chance to claim instant wins with every swing.

Both real money online slots come courtesy of a developmental partnership with Design Works Gaming (DWG), further bolstering BetMGM's library that features hundreds of games for eligible users in Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.

Bettors must be 21 years or older and otherwise eligible to register and place wagers at online casinos. If you or someone you know has a gambling problem, please seek assistance from trained professionals such as the Problem Gambling Help Network at 1-800-MY-RESET.
