One of the most experienced online gaming providers around, NextGen might now be part of the NYX Gaming giant, but it still churns out top-quality slots under its own name.
But whether it's online, mobile or land-based games, NextGen's focus on slots has meant it can devote a lot more time to quality rather than spread itself too thinly. As a result, some of the best games released in the past few years have come off the NextGen production line.
Formed in 1999, NextGen has moved owners during its lifetime, but through its online partners continues to innovate when it comes to top online and mobile slots.
The firm expanded rapidly from its early days and merged with NYX 12 years after forming to make the powerful NYX Gaming Group. NYX itself acquired Cryptologic from Amaya a year later but NextGen continues to operate under the NYX banner and produces games.
In fact, it has now released over 600 games via Microgaming's QuickFire platform, including classic slots, branded titles, and innovative features like Dyna-Reel and Up Wild games. All games are available under NYX's own 'OGS' (Open Gaming System) platform.
NextGen has a select group of online partners for its games, including bwin.party, betfair, Unibet, and William Hill. The firm boasts a 50-strong 'Game Innovation Team' which is responsible for bringing to life patented game ideas for its partners.
