Aristocrat Interactive licensed Buffalo and Mo’ Mummy to Gaming Realms for Slingo adaptations launching in regulated markets in 2028. The brands will be rethemed to blend bingo and slots. No specific jurisdictions were disclosed.
SCCG Take — Operators should track the 2028 rollout for proven IP in hybrid format; it offers a low-risk content addition once certified.
Aristocrat Interactive, the online gaming unit of Australia-listed Aristocrat Leisure Ltd, has signed a licensing agreement with Gaming Realms Plc. The pact covers development of Slingo versions of the Buffalo and Mo’ Mummy game brands, according to a Tuesday announcement reported by GGRAsia.
Slingo games, owned by London-listed Gaming Realms, combine fast-paced bingo with slot-machine reel spins. The new titles are expected to reach regulated markets in 2028 through Gaming Realms’ network of online gaming operator partners. The companies did not name initial launch jurisdictions.
Gaming Realms will adapt the themes and gameplay elements of both brands to the Slingo format. The move extends two long-running Aristocrat properties into a hybrid mechanic already established in certain regulated online channels.
Lauren Caruana, Aristocrat Interactive’s vice president of commercial for the United Kingdom and Europe, said the agreement brings established brands to new audiences. “Buffalo and Mo’ Mummy have entertained players for years, and we’re looking forward to seeing these iconic games reimagined for new audiences around the world,” Caruana stated.
Craig Falciglia, vice president for North America at Gaming Realms, called the portfolio addition a milestone. “These brands have an extraordinary global fanbase, and we are thrilled to adapt their iconic themes into our unique format to deliver an unmatched gaming experience for players and operators alike,” Falciglia added. The adaptation stays within the Slingo mechanics already defined by Gaming Realms.
The 2028 regulated-market target leaves roughly two years for development, certification and integration. Operators partnered with Gaming Realms will gain first access to the licensed titles, but the absence of named jurisdictions leaves open questions on exact sequencing across European, North American and other licensed territories. The deal illustrates a deliberate pace that prioritizes compliance readiness over immediate deployment.
