As one of the most innovative gaming software development companies in the world, Microgaming appreciates a winning brand. That is why the company was thrilled to announce an extended licensing agreement for the Tarzan brand. The original agreement was with Edgar Rice Burroughs Inc. Furthermore, Creative Licensing Corporation brokers the new deal. The plan is to produce a new Tarzan branded online slot machine. However, Fortune Factory Studios may play a part in producing these new titles.
The Original Tarzan Brand Goes Back Before Microgaming To 2016
The original agreement for this brand goes back to 2016. Given the overall success over the past three years, a renewal seemed likely. That branded relationship proved to be profitable for all parties involved. Indeed, Microgaming is no stranger to making good partnerships.

The new agreement calls for a second branded Tarzan title. The game will be distributed to customers through the company’s usual channels. Microgaming will turn to Fortune Factory Studios as the official game design partner. Moreover, this is an independent studio that has provided some excellent innovative content in the past.
