Virgin Casino brings the King of Las Vegas games to the online world with the launch of Elvis® Multi-Strike™

London, 24 January 2008 - Virgin Casino (www.virgincasino.com) today announced the launch of Elvis® Multi-Strike™ - bringing one of the most popular Las Vegas slots to the online casino environment in an exciting new format.

Elvis® Multi-Strike™ has been a top-performing game for land-based casino giant IGT. Thanks to Virgin Casino’s partnership with IGT company WagerWorks, fans of the Vegas favourite can now play the ‘King’ of casino games online, whilst enjoying Elvis’ legendary music, alongside vintage video and photo footage. With the added chance of winning up to £250,000 in one spin, Elvis® Multi-Strike™ is guaranteed to be a hit with online casino players.

Elvis® Multi-Strike™ is an exciting new slot game, featuring three levels of reels, 60 paylines, and the ‘Rockin’ Re-spin’, which gives players even more opportunity to trigger a ‘Bonus’.

In the base game, betting on all 60 paylines activates all three levels of reels. As players advance up the activated levels with any payline wins, increasing multipliers are added to their win – so the wins on the second and third levels are multiplied by 2x and 4x respectively. Five coins are allowed per payline with a maximum bet of 300 coins.


Players can also advance up the levels through the ‘FREE RIDE’ feature, which is earned with a combination of any three ‘Photo Memories’ and/or ‘WILD BONUS’ symbols. Furthermore, if players reveal two ‘Photo Memories’ symbols on reels one and two, the ‘Rockin’ Re-spin’ is triggered, meaning the first two reels ‘hold’ whilst the others re-spin - offering more free chances to earn a bonus round.

Two additional bonus rounds are also available - ‘Fan-O-METER’ and ‘Photo Memories Bonus’. The ‘Fan-O-METER’ bonus combines exciting Elvis concert video clips with fantastic rewards. The ‘Photo Memories Bonus’ meanwhile, takes players on a stroll down memory lane with the King, whilst they watch their winnings add up.

And to complete the bonus round line-up, Elvis® Multi-Strike™ also includes a ‘Gamble’ option - a double or nothing Red/Black proposition that is playable after any base game or bonus win.

As with all Virgin Casino games, players can also earn V*Points – Virgin Games’ loyalty points – every time they play. Offering players the chance to redeem their points for further Virgin rewards, including Virgin Atlantic Flying Club Miles or cold, hard cash, V*Points can be transferred across Virgin Games portfolio of products, including Virgin Poker and Virgin Bingo.

Elvis® Multi-Strike™ is available to play now on www.virgincasino.com.

Virgin Casino has seen big name WagerWorks games such as Enchanted Unicorn™, Monopoly Here & Now™, Wheel of Fortune® Triple Action Frenzy™, Cleopatra®, The 50,000 Pyramid™, Jeopardy!™, The Price is Right™ and the hugely popular Cluedo added to its extensive games portfolio in the past 12 months.


Further premium releases such as Captain Quid, to name but one, will be added to Virgin Casino in 2008, boasting some of the biggest and most exciting slot games that are guaranteed to keep players’ adrenalin going.

Virgin Casino launched under the Virgin Games brand in June 2004. The site was refreshed in June 2006, providing players with a greater choice of games and additional means of earning bonus points and rewards.
