The Guardian Selects Skill Gaming Services |
April 25, 2006 (London, UK) GameAccount, the #1 online skill gaming provider, and Guardian Newspapers Ltd have launched a dedicated skill gaming service on Guardian Unlimited: www.guardian.co.uk
The partnership brings together the worlds foremost integrated network of person-to-person (P2P) skill-based games and one of the largest and influential online news audiences in the world.
Guardian Unlimited users will have access to ten classic real-money multiplayer games and tournaments through GameAccounts network, joining players from over 130 countries worldwide.
Online skill games are a significant growth area in terms of popularity and revenues and GameAccounts established industry status offers a natural partnership opportunity. As a result, the Guardian can now offer a seamless user experience allowing players to register and play for fun or real money.
GameAccount will deliver classic multiplayer and heads-up games such as Gin Rummy and Backgammon, as well as unique P2P variants of other games, including tournament Blackjack, Mah Jong, and a variety of popular Solitaire and card formats. The integrated network also supports bespoke tournaments including the worlds largest knockout tournament with over 16,000 entrants. GameAccounts multiplayer games lobby allows players to see opponents moves in real-time, and is supported by in-game and messenger chat functionality.
We are excited to be adding skill gaming to our online portfolio as well as having GameAccount as a preferred provider. P2P games offer our readers a competitive and engaging gaming alternative that enhances our existing games and betting offering, said Annie Wilson, Online Partnerships Manager at The Guardian.
According to Kevin Dale, Chief Executive at GameAccount, the demand for online skill gaming by blue-chip consumer brands continues to increase.
The Guardian deal is another milestone for GameAccount. The company continues to progress with its strategy to ensure we are firmly positioned as the leading provider of tailored Skill Gaming solutions to leading global destination sites.
