Gaming Realms signs games development and licensing agreement with ITV

AIM-listed Gaming Realms, a developer, publisher and licensor of mobile real money and social games, has signed a multi-show game licensing agreement with ITV.

The agreement, which follows on from the success of the loveislandgames.com site launched last summer, will be initially based around the television shows Dancing on Ice, The Only Way is Essex and Hell's Kitchen.

The new games will be hosted on Gaming Realms' proprietary platform under the umbrella brand tellygames.com and licensed to third party operators as part of the group’s 'Slingo Originals' licensed content model.

Chief executive officer Patrick Southon said: "These are great commercial developments for Gaming Realms and we are delighted to be extending our partnership with ITV on the creation of entertaining gaming content based on these popular television shows."

At 0950 GMT, the shares were up 1% to 10.50p.
