The West Virginia Lottery has launched its first digital eInstant game, Royal Court Riches, made by Pollard Banknote’s digital studio.

Royal Court Riches is the first in a series of games from the Pollard Digital Games Studio, with the rest of the series slated for release throughout 2025.

The lineup of games will have a variety of themes, mechanics and play styles to appeal to a broad player base.

The release schedule in West Virginia includes a mix of proven titles, such as Bacon Me Crazy, as well as titles new to the US market, such as Dragon Keno Blast and Gemstone 7s, which will feature a progressive jackpot.

“Pollard Banknote is excited to share our engaging eInstant games with players in West Virginia,” said Pollard Banknote VP of digital engagement Shannon DeHaven. “This launch deepens our partnership with the Lottery, which already includes the delivery and support of PlayON, Pollard Banknote’s robust loyalty platform, as well as mobile app and website development. In addition, our joint venture entity, NeoPollard Interactive, delivers the State’s iLottery platform and a range of managed services to provide a turnkey program.”

John Myers, director at the West Virginia Lottery, commented: “We are very excited to partner with Pollard Banknote to expand our offering to players in West Virginia.

“The addition of Royal Court Riches and the upcoming games from the Pollard Digital Games Studio furthers our commitment to delivering exceptional immersive experiences designed specifically to appeal to lottery players, and growing our contribution to education, seniors and tourism in a socially responsible manner.”
