EDMONTON, AB, Aug. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BetMGM, a leading sportsbook and iGaming operator, and Blueprint Gaming announced that Game of Thrones™ is now live at BetMGM Casino in Alberta. It marks the title’s second Canadian market launch following a record-breaking debut in Ontario.

Since launching in Ontario, Game of Thrones™ has delivered record-setting engagement and performance metrics for BetMGM. The success mirrored broader industry momentum, with Eilers & Krejcik Gaming ranking Game of Thrones fifth among Canada's best-performing new online casino game launches.

Developed in partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Experiences, Game of Thrones™ draws on the scale and storytelling of the globally renowned HBO series, translating its rich world into a feature-driven slot experience designed for modern audiences.


At the core of the gameplay is Blueprint’s Money Collect mechanic, which evolves as players progress. Beginning with the Night’s Watch Collect feature, players unlock the sigils of Westeros’ most powerful houses – House Stark, House Baratheon, House Lannister and House Targaryen – each introducing distinct modifiers that enhance prize collection and gameplay depth.

Additional layers of engagement are delivered through wildfire-inspired modifiers and house-powered features, creating a dynamic experience that mirrors the tension and unpredictability of the source material.
