5 Major Online Casino Innovations That Rocked The Gaming Industry

With the onslaught of changes experienced in the online casino gaming scene, providers continue to devise strategies that will attract and retain their players. As operators search for more ways to improve their market share, this has resulted into major innovations that change the casino gaming terrain permanently.

Mobile gaming

The availability of online casino games in mobile devices stands out as one of the biggest innovations in the online gaming industry. Just when players think that nothing can be more convenient and comfortable than playing in the comfort of their own houses, the release of mobile gaming defied all norms. Under this context, not only did casino gaming became more accessible, it also became more personal as mobile phones are seldom or hardly shared to other users. Such benefit became even more available to the public with the development of mobile applications that give the members a direct access to their preferred casino site or provider.

Live dealers

Several years ago, the idea of offering live dealers was an ambitious whim. But thanks to technology, the ambition finally materialized.

Nowadays, live games remain as one of the most sought-after casino product. Its popularity stems from the high degree of game integrity that members get whenever they see games happen right before their very eyes.

Video slots

Classic slots remain a favorite. However, video slots have already overcome them. Giving members with a much richer user experience, special features and bonus rounds, video slots have become a staple of every existing online casino site.

Tournaments for women

The increasing number of women participating in casino competitions paved way for the rise of women tournaments. In the earlier years, one can hardly see a woman competing in the poker table. Gender stereotype has been too dominant that somehow, the so-called “girl power” in gaming was hardly felt. But with their growing population and the revenue their generate, their presence in the gaming scene can no longer be ignored and therefore, resulted to the creation of their own tournaments.

Social network integration

When news about Facebook’s integration of online casino applications spread, it caused a stir to the alarmed public. But although it created a loud buzz, it cannot be denied that such bold move is definitely one of the greatest, if not the greatest, innovation that the industry has seen.

As the gaming industry grows bigger in the coming years, expect innovations and approaches that will readily surpass the above-mentioned innovations.
