BetMGM, an online gambling platform from Las Vegas-based MGM Resorts, announced the launch of Wheel of Fortune Online Casino in the Garden State.

In collaboration with IGT, Wheel of Fortune is the first brand-led online casino in North America. Now live in New Jersey, Wheel of Fortune Online Casino is home to branded slot titles.

MGM also operates online casino gambling in Michigan, but it’s unclear whether the Wheel of Fortune online casino will be launched in the Wolverine State. Sports betting is legal in more than 30 states, while online casino is only legal in a small handful.

“We are thrilled to bring Wheel of Fortune Online Casino to players in New Jersey where they can now play for real money and experience the excitement of the beloved game show on their phones,” said Adam Greenblatt, Chief Executive Officer, BetMGM. “We have a great alliance with Wheel of Fortune and IGT and look forward to offering our players innovative and diverse selections of gaming options.”

An iconic American game show, Wheel of Fortune’s milestone 40th season premiered in September 2022. Wheel of Fortune-themed slot games have been prominent on brick-and-mortar casino floors for over 25 years.

“Over the last 40 years, the Wheel of Fortune brand has been brought to life in a diverse range of products, including IGT’s extremely successful Wheel of Fortune slots. Now we’re excited to see BetMGM build on that success and take an innovative approach to bring the game to more players by launching the brand’s first online casino in the U.S.,” said Suzanne Prete, Executive Vice President of Game Shows, Sony Pictures Television.

According to Las Vegas-based IGT, the brand is the most popular among slot players.

IGT’s Wheel of Fortune slots have been entertaining players for decades as the most successful slot theme of all time,” said Enrico Drago, CEO Digital & Betting, IGT. “We are incredibly excited to partner with BetMGM on the evolution of this celebrated theme and witness it break new ground to become the first U.S. brand-led online casino where players can enjoy their favorite IGT Wheel of Fortune slots games.”
