It has been announced that Scientific Games, the parent company of Williams Interactive (WMS) and many others, have been given free rein to create as many James Bond slots as they choose, which could be cause for concern, as it could just mean year upon year of near identical, uninspiring slots based around every possible aspect of Bond that is able to be capitalised on.Alternatively, it could be great news and lead to an exceptional series of slots that rapidly becomes a favourite for gamers everywhere.So, which of these two options seems most likely from the WMS James Bond slots?
All the movies
Scientific Games have confirmed that:“The exclusive agreement… gives Scientific Games the rights to leverage all past and future iconic James Bond films, as well as the film’s talent portraying James Bond.”That means all 24 films that have been made, can be turned into slot games, as can any movies that follow.Whether this means the games will come in order, going film by film and actor by actor until it catches up, or that we’ll get the easiest movies to convert into games first, and then some slightly more forced efforts, nobody is sure.However, historically, we have all been able to put our faith in Scientific Games, and therefore in WMS.This is, let us not forget, the company that created the most popular slot game ever amongst UK players, the iconic Rainbow Riches. Yes, the tone of that slot doesn’t exactly match what you’d look for in a Bond themed game, but think about Zeus 1,000, another popular WMS slot, and the range becomes clear.Cautious optimism, that seems like the attitude to enter with. For now, we just all want to know what movie WMS are going to take on first!
