DraftKings has launched its standalone casino app in Pennsylvania and West Virginia.

Along with proprietary content, the casino app offers players games from IGT, Scientific Games, and Slingo, and live dealer action from the Evolution Gaming-powered DraftKings studio. 

In West Virginia, the casino product suite has been launched in association with Hollywood Casino at Charlestown Races.

The rollout in Pennsylvania and West Virginia follow month’s launch of a standalone DraftKings casino app in New Jersey. 

DraftKings says it is ready to launch its casino app in other states as and when local regulations permit.

Until the COVID-19 crisis hit, it seems most in the gaming industry assumed land-based casinos and sports betting would continue to dominate the US scene for a long time. But now, with the decimation of bricks and mortar casinos, and the uncertainty surrounding traditional sports, operators are clearly investing heavily in online casino (and esports). 

Reflecting this change, just days ago we reported that Roar Digital, the joint MGM Resorts International-GVC Holdings venture that operates online gaming platform BetMGM, announced it had secured an additional $250 million, meaning it is now funded to the tune of $450 million.
