BetMGM Casino announced the launch of an Elvis Presley-branded online slot machine on Monday, saying the company is now the exclusive home of Elvis-themed slots thanks to a strategic partnership with Octoplay.
The first title in this collection, known as Elvis Presley: Viva Las Records, has launched at BetMGM Casino in Michigan, New Jersey, and Ontario.
Viva Las Records is a five-reel slot machine that features a Hold & Win bonus as well as five jackpots that award up to 2,500x a player’s stake. The game features various images of Elvis from throughout his career, along with other examples of the King’s iconography.
“Elvis Presley’s cultural reach is unmatched, and Viva Las Records delivered strong results from day one because we built an experience that truly captures the energy and showmanship the King was known for,” Octoplay CEO Ralitsa Georgieva said in a statement. “This exclusive collaboration with BetMGM validates our approach to premium branded content and lays the foundation for Octoplay’s accelerated growth across North America.”
BetMGM says the game will soon be available in all locations where BetMGM Casino operates. According to Octoplay, the collection validates the studio's approach to premium branded content and lays the groundwork for the property's expansion across North America.
The partnership isn’t limited to this one game. In the same release announcing Viva Las Records, BetMGM announced that a second Elvis-themed title is in development and scheduled for release in the summer of 2026.
BetMGM Senior Vice President of Gaming Oliver Bartlett sees the partnership as a natural extension of the brand's Las Vegas roots.
“Elvis Presley helped shape the entertainment industry in Las Vegas, a city whose DNA runs through everything we do at BetMGM,” Bartlett said in a statement. “Bringing the King’s legacy to BetMGM through our partnership with Octoplay allows us to honor that history in a new way and capture the charisma of a larger-than-life legend. These slots are a celebration of an icon and reinforce BetMGM Casino as a premier online casino and a true powerhouse of entertainment.”
BetMGM is an online gambling and sports betting company created as a partnership between MGM Resorts International and Entain. BetMGM Casino is available in a growing number of regulated North American markets and offers over 7,000 games.
Octoplay is a casino game developer based in Malta. The company was founded in 2022 and is known for creating proprietary video slots for online casinos via its in-house studios. The firm holds licenses from several major regulators, including the UK Gambling Commission and the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario.
Unsurprisingly, Elvis Presley has long been a popular choice for slots theming both online and at brick-and-mortar casinos. Previous Elvis slots that have become popular include WMS's Elvis: The King Lives and IGT’s live machine known simply as ELVIS, which debuted in 1998.
