Game of Thrones Slot Goes Live at BetMGM in Four US States After Big Canadian Run

Status: live in four US states as of 2 October 2026. Westeros has made it to US casino lobbies. Blueprint Gaming and BetMGM have launched the Game of Thrones online slot in the US through White Hat Studios’ House of Brands portfolio. The slot is now available at BetMGM Casino in New Jersey, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia, as well as Borgata Online in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The companies announced on September 29, 2026 that the Game of Thrones slot game is now live in the United States, following what the companies describe as a record-setting run in Canada.

Where You Can Find It Right Now

There are only two places to play it in the US, and that’s deliberate. Industry coverage says the slot launches exclusively at BetMGM Casino in New Jersey, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia, and at Borgata Online in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. So if you’re on a different operator, or in a state without regulated online casino play, you won’t see it in your lobby.

More states could follow. One report noted that further state rollouts likely to follow as licensing allows, but nobody has named dates or states yet. Treat that as a maybe, not a schedule.

How the Slot Is Built

This isn’t a classic five-line fruit machine with a dragon pasted on. The six-reel slot offers 4,096 ways to win and includes a persistent Money Collect feature linked to Houses Stark, Lannister, Baratheon and Targaryen. The word “persistent” matters here. Player progression can carry across gaming sessions, while the title also includes an Iron Throne Bonus and four fixed jackpot prizes.

The bonus round works like this. The Iron Throne Bonus is triggered by landing three or more Bonus symbols and awards 10 Iron Throne Spins, with potential cash prizes. On top of that, dragon modifiers and persistent progression features add further gameplay elements.

The jackpots are fixed, not progressive. According to Covers, four fixed jackpots are also available, with payouts ranging from 20 times to 2,500 times a user’s stake. None of the launch coverage we checked gives an RTP figure or a volatility rating, so we’re not printing one. Check the game’s info screen inside the casino before you play. That’s where the operator has to list the real numbers.

The Canadian Run That Came First

The US release isn’t the game’s first outing. The Game of Thrones slot debuted in Ontario at BetMGM Casino in April and Alberta in mid-July, emerging as one of the operator’s top-performing games in the Canadian provinces.

Alberta’s timing helped. It was later introduced in Alberta following the province’s regulated online gambling market launch in July, becoming one of BetMGM’s top-performing games in the Canadian market. Analysts also took notice. Eilers & Krejcik Gaming ranked Game of Thrones fifth among Canada’s top-performing new online casino game launches.

Fifth place out of all new launches is a solid result for a licensed show slot. These tie-ins don’t always land with players once the novelty wears off.

Who Actually Made It

Three companies sit behind this one. Warner Bros. Discovery Global Experiences developed the slot with Blueprint Gaming, drawing on the setting and storylines of the Emmy Award-winning HBO series. Distribution in North America runs through a third party: White Hat Studios is distributing the title in North America through its House of Brands portfolio, which features content from Blueprint Gaming and other studios across regulated US iGaming markets.

Blueprint has been leaning hard on licensed brands. Blueprint Gaming, part of Germany’s Merkur Group, has built its House of Brands strategy around licensing recognisable entertainment franchises into slot form rather than relying solely on original titles. The studio’s product director, Charlie Jacka, called it “one of our most ambitious launches to date” in the joint announcement.

Launch Promos and Dates

BetMGM is backing the release with the usual launch-week extras. BetMGM Casino will offer bonus spin promotions, sweepstakes, leaderboard competitions, and daily prize opportunities. Borgata is running its own promos too, and BetMGM Casino and Borgata Online are supporting the slot’s release with free spin promotions and other leaderboard competitions.

Promos like these come with terms, wagering requirements and state restrictions. Read them before opting in. Real-money online casino play in these states is strictly for adults who meet the legal age and location rules, and every spin is random. A famous licence doesn’t change the maths.

The next fixed date is the big leaderboard event. A $25,000 leaderboard competition is scheduled to run from 5 to 11 October. We’ll check back after 11 October to see whether any new states have been added to the rollout.
