History of Games Global (previously Microgaming)
Founded in 1994, Microgaming quickly became a pioneer in online gaming, launching the first true online casino software. By 1996, it had gone live with its first online casino operator. It played a key role in founding the Interactive Gaming Council (IGC) in 1997 and introduced the groundbreaking wide area progressive jackpot slot game, Cash Splash, in 1998. The following year, PlayCheck and CashCheck technologies were launched, offering players better control over their gaming and spending history.
Microgaming was instrumental in establishing eCOGRA in 2003, an organization dedicated to player protection and gaming standards. The same year, it launched its poker software, which would power the Poker Network. In 2005, the company ventured into mobile gaming with Spin3, followed by the introduction of live dealer casino software and multi-hand gameplay for table games in 2006. Microgaming made headlines in 2009 with a record-breaking progressive jackpot payout on its Mega Moolah slots game.
The evolution continued with the launch of the first true 3D slots in 2011 and a historic mobile progressive jackpot win of £3.7 million on Mega Moolah in 2013. Microgaming's innovative efforts earned it numerous awards over the years.
In 2021, Games Global acquired Microgaming's assets, marking a new era for the company. Officially launching in 2022, Games Global retained Microgaming's legacy while expanding its portfolio and reach under a robust leadership team. Today, Games Global services over 980 casino brands globally, offering a rich collection of more than 3,000 casino games.
