Playtech launched a premium branded progressive slot game based on the classic 1980’s film, Dirty Dancing, the licence to which was granted by the film production company, Lionsgate.
The game’s features include the chance to win big across two jackpot levels, a Johnny and Baby jackpot as well as the Dirty Dancing jackpot game, Whirling Wilds with up to six random wilds in any spin, dancing wilds stacked in free games and up to 35 free games with expanding wilds.
Retro-style symbols include all the film’s main characters, dancing shoes, vinyl records and a classic 1950s sports car.
James Frendo, casino director at Playtech said: “Dirty Dancing is such an iconic brand that it was an obvious choice for us to transform into a leading branded slot. The game is sure to be an instant hit with our licensees’ players both old and new.” Peter Levin, president of interactive ventures and games at Lionsgate, said: “Thirty years after its arrival, the original ‘nobody puts Baby in a corner’ Dirty Dancing remains a deeply memorable classic that helped define a generation of cinema. We’re proud to work with great partners like Playtech to leverage our unique properties to connect with fans around the world.”
The hit dance romance was the first film to sell more than one million home videos when it was released in 1987 and celebrates its 30th anniversary this year.
