Konami Gaming has launched its online slot games in Europe for the first time after going live with Portugal’s Solverde.pt.
Online players at Solverde.pt now have access to Konami games such as All Aboard, Cobra Hearts and Chili Chili Fire, which are also available across Solverde’s five land-based casinos.
“Solverde Group is leading the market with this milestone, becoming the first in Europe to offer Konami real-money online slots to Solverde.pt online players,” said Konami Gaming president and CEO Steve Sutherland. “It is the first of many new iGaming partnerships we hope to build across Europe, as a key strategic market for expanding Konami’s online slot offering to more players.”
Solverde Group board member Manuel Violas said: “As the Portuguese online casino with the widest portfolio, we are excited to lead all of Europe in debuting Konami real-money online slots across the country.
“This month’s debut games are the first of many popular Konami slots we look forward to publish on Solverde.pt for our players to enjoy.”
Eduardo Aching, Konami Gaming’s vice president of international gaming operations, added: “Considering our longtime partnership in the traditional land-based space, Konami is especially pleased to congratulate Solverde.pt on this high-profile iGaming launch, at the forefront of the entire region.
“Through Konami’s owned remote gaming server, there is a wealth of proven quality slot content that we’re ready to expand to more of Europe’s leading online operators very quickly.”
In an effort to fuel its European iGaming expansion, Konami is set to open a new European office later this year.
