Further to our article during Christmas, Playtech has announced that their popular Marvel series video slots will no longer exist as of the 1st of April 2017. Play them now before they are gone forever!
The Marvel series video slots have arguably been the most popular group of video slots over the last few years – they have superb graphics, excellent bonus features and offer you to chance to randomly win 1 of 4 progressive jackpots.
Playtech knew this day was coming as Disney (who own Marvel) don’t want their branded associated with the online gaming industry. Playtech has since launched the Age of the Gods series which have very similar bonus features and attributes but with a Greek mythology theme. Recently, they’ve also launched the Batman series and DC Comics games including Man of Steel, Superman The Movie, Superman II and Green Lantern.
