Community Jackpot System Finally Announced by NetEnt

A brand-new community jackpot system has been announced by NetEnt that will give players the chance to win prizes even when they aren’t online. If that sounds like a dream come true then read on, because the new system, which has been named Starburst PowerPots, is every bit as innovative as our opening statement suggests.

Introducing Starburst PowerPots

Starburst PowerPots is a system which awards Starburst tokens to individuals as they play any of the featured games, no matter which participating venue they happen to be playing at. As Starburst tokens are collected, a PowerPots progress bar gradually fills up, and eventually this will trigger the payment of a community jackpot which is shared between all participating players. It therefore doesn’t matter if every player involved is online or not when the jackpot is delivered, because they will each receive a share according to how many tokens they have previously earned.

Online casino venues which participate in the Starburst PowerPots system will be able to tweak it to suit their own personality and style, so whilst the system itself will be consistent, the experience of playing for a community jackpot will vary from venue to venue. In other words, if you like the way a particular venue does things, you will almost certainly like the way they implement Starburst PowerPots.

Huge Engagement for Players

‘Starburst PowerPots was developed in line with our customers’ and players’ expectations, taking cue on everything from art assets to mechanics, said Bryan Upton, who is Director of Games at NetEnt. ‘We are using leading edge games design approaches to make this jackpot family with our most powerful games simple to understand yet compelling. Using the Starburst brand will create massive acquisition while these jackpot mechanics will drive huge engagement for players.

He continued: ‘This is community gaming without the overengineering and overthought on what slot players really want. This product can fit into any operator’s portfolio and deliver any experience, from large life changing prizes to super-fast hitting jackpots.’

Putting Community Back into Gaming

We like anything that puts a sense of community back into gaming, so we are looking forward to seeing how the Startburst PowerPots system contributes to that end over the coming months.
