It has been revealed today that British Rock Star, Ozzy Osbourne, and his family have signed a deal with Microgaming which will feature the famous TV family in a new series of online video slot games.

 “I can honestly say that when I came into this business I would never have believed that one day we would be welcoming Ozzy Osbourne and his family into the fold, but this goes to show how far we have come.” Says Microgaming CEO, Roger Raatgever.  

Ozzie Osbourne has been a well known name in the music world for years as the lead singer of Black Sabbath, but it wasn’t until recently that the entire family, Ozzie, Sharon, Kelly and Jack all became household names when in 2002 they starred in their own MTV reality series, the Osbournes.

The show ran for three years as the world couldn’t get enough of the unusual, and almost dysfunctional, behaviors and antics of the Osbourne household.  Each of the family members has since gone on to pursue individual television or music careers.  The deal with Microgaming is just another page in the family’s impressive portfolio.

The new Osbourne series of video slot games, which are due for release later this year, will be the newest addition to Microgaming’s massive selection of classic and video online slot games.  The company has seen great success with past video slot series, such as Lara Croft Tomb Raider and Hitman and expects that the Osbourne game will also be a hit.

“Online gaming is well and truly part of the entertainment mix and we can’t wait to launch our cutting edge Osbourne video slot to players later this year. We promise it will be a game to remember.”  Adds Raatgever.  

Microgaming is the leading software developers and turn key solution providers for the online gambling industry.  They service a large number of online casino clients and one of the internets largest poker networks.  Microgaming is continually updating their game database and currently have over 300 casino and poker games in their collection.
