The Growing Popularity of Online Casino Games

The Growing Popularity of Online Casino Games

According to Entrepreneur, just a couple of years ago, online gambling generated over $56 billion US Dollars. This huge amount, which is $4 billion more than Disney generated, can be attributed to the growing popularity of games such as Slots, Blackjack, Roulette, and Baccarat (+ others). And let’s not forget about the popularity of online Poker. Even one of the most popular products of 2019 by Rockstar Games, Red Dead Redemption II, boasts of an elaborate Poker Game.

Forbes says that the growing popularity of online casino games is shown in several states across the US that have legalized gambling in recent years. One notable online casino is 888, which is an established international operator with millions of players all over the world. They have developed their own exclusive online casino games you will find nowhere else while also offering top games from all major providers.

Such games are also popping up on consoles, for example, the Xbox One. Prominence Poker, for example, is pleasing to players with great aesthetic and background music. This one also offers a large variety of character creation features as well as different locations to play Poker. This is a serious Poker game that will test the skills of even the best Poker players.

PlayStation 4 offers the online gamer the multiplayer-based The Four Kings Casino and Slots. Like the Xbox, this PlayStation free option offers avatar customization as well as a bar and restaurant that your character can frequent.  This online casino game offers the full experience and provides endless entertainment ranging from Poker, Roulette, Baccarat, and more. Players receive tons of in-app rewards and incentives.

And we would be remiss if we neglected to mention the highly popular GTA Online by Rockstar Games with their Diamond Casino & Resort complete with a personal spa! This gaming experience provides the player with many fun activities starting with using Chips to play against the house with Roulette, Blackjack, and Three Card Poker.

Let’s not forget gaming apps for your mobile devices. Most land casinos provide their customers with apps that they can download and continue the experience even offsite. An advantage to apps is that the majority of the better ones, offer great sign-up bonuses. Some sign-up bonuses can be as high as $500 and maybe throw in a few free plays or rounds. It’s important to remember the mobile apps can have a great gaming experience by consistently updating the site. Many mobile apps now rival videogame console games as far as graphics, game experience, and content updates. Last, but not least, is the convenience of 24/7 online support, in case players need assistance. The mobile casino sites can offer their players support via email, online chat, or even a phone call. A great mobile feature is the customer reviews of each site, which will enable players the choice of deciding whether to go with a certain site or search for another.

Slots

If Slots are your favorites along with popular videogames, there is the HITMAN Slot, which has a bit payout potential. The graphics are not that great, considering that the game was released over 13 years ago, but it remains popular. There is also the Justice League Slot that is filled with special features as well as the chance to win a huge jackpot. And, let’s not forget our gorgeous Lara Croft in Tombs and Temples by Microgaming. Packed with amazing gameplay and graphics, this game offers the Rolling Reels feature that offers multipliers and exploding symbols. It also offers a Jackpot that is one of the best ones around.

One of the top reasons for the continuing growth of the online gambling industry is the mere convenience of not having to leave home. Instead of spending money to fly Las Vegas, you can have your favorite games such as Slots or Blackjack at the tip of your fingers. Mobile casino apps can be enjoyed at your favorite coffee shop, on the Metro, or outdoors at the beach or park. And, yes, online players can make deposits as well as claim payouts very conveniently.

And let’s not forget the growing popularity of Bitcoin and its effect on the gambling industry. More and more gaming companies are accepting cryptocurrency as a form of payment. Take Japanese company, Asobino, which enables users to purchase in-game credits with ASOBICOIN Tokens in MMORPG games such as Avabel OnlineToram Online, Iruna Online, Alchemia Story, and Aurcus Online.

So, what is your preference when it comes to casino games? Will you go for the Poker variety or will you try your hand at Fantasy Games? Do you prefer single player or do you like playing with or against other online players? Whatever your preference, you are bound to find an online casino website that suits your needs and lets you have a great online experience.
