Big Year For Esports Casino Gaming
Gameco CEO Blaine Graboyes Predicts Big Things
The CEO of GameCo has looked into his crystal ball and is predicting an amazing 2020 for Esports casino gaming and video games
GameCo produces video game gaming machines that focus on skill and chance. Recently, a series of GameCo games were installed in Mississippi at the Pearl River Casino. This is a big score for the company as it predicts that more and more casinos will open their doors to its video game machines.
“Video game gambling is fun. Video games are fun. Gambling is fun,” he said. “I don’t think players care about the term skill. I think what they’re interested in is the thrill and anticipation of gambling and the fun and interactivity of video games, and that’s what we deliver in our video game gambling products.
Graboyes is an advocate of fun, and it is that fun that the company has been able to use to attract a younger audience and players in various casino floors. Graboyes says that the GameCo machines are part of the reason why casinos are seeing an influx of younger players. In fact, he insists that casinos with GameCo machines are likely to see more players between the ages of 21 to 49 than those without.
The company continues to grow and add new casinos to its client base.
Gaining New Grounds
In the last few months, GameCo has announced it has already started trials for its gaming machines in Nevada Casinos. The trial would allow the company to install two of its machines in selected casinos. The selected casinos are the MGM Grand, the LINQ Hotel & Experience and Park MGM.
“We have a lot of demand and opportunity for the games both on the Strip and in local casinos,” he said. “We’ve seen really great performance in terms of who’s playing the games and the performance metrics on the games, particularly at The Linq, which I think is a really great venue that they’ve designed for attracting a new, younger audience.
The company is also hoping after the trials; it can set up shop in New Mexico, Ohio, Arizona, and Europe.
