Konami Gaming has signed a cross-licensing agreement with IGT under which Konami can offer games including patented game features from the IGT portfolio and the two companies can share their best features. The deal was announced this week.
Thomas Jingoli, vice president and CCO, commented: “Cross-licensing these game patents between our two companies allows Konami and IGT to share some of the best features that make our games desired by customers. The opportunity to leverage some of IGT’s patented mechanics enables Konami to enhance our game portfolio as we continue to focus on delivering the most enjoyable ‘Born from Fun’ gaming experiences possible.”
