Online Casinos in general: One slot - several developer studios

Peace Friends,

does anyone here know about licenses for slots? What I mean is that I noticed that one and the same slot in different casinos are listed under different developer studios.

e.g. Star Clusters

- at Slottyvegas under "NYX
- at Gambola under "Microgaming"
- at stake7 under NYX and under Microgaming

Bigtimegaming provides the program code for the Megaways mechanics, that's clear. The studio builds the optics, also clear. But two studios don't build the exact same thing independently of each other. RTP is always the same.

Can someone explain the background to me?

Would guess on partner companies or simply on short mergers there is often that times two companies together make a thing

Licenses will e.g. BTG issue

Just look at the computer game industry there are sometimes 3 studios at a work on it

Bonanza is also offered in 2 variants in the casinos, one via Microgaming and the other via BTG. I have also wondered about this.

There licenses are in different states. Some OC have the message 'You are leaving the jurisdiction of Malta' or so. Then the slot is licensed through Oryx in Malta and the same through BTG in Alderney (exemplary).

Exactly, it appears that BTG, for example, has the licenses to most of the megaways and is passing on/selling them.

Bigtime is the licensor for All Slots that call you Megaways. I was just not clear why apart from Bigtime and e.g. Microgaming also Nyx is listed as a studio. Licenses in different countries could be. NYX is USA, Microgaming UK.

Lies only on licenses, often also on the licenses of the respective casinos

I suspect that Provider XY may have licenses for country XY and therefore enters into cooperation with other game manufacturers, because it is so simply more economical, instead of obtaining a license itself, etc.

In the end it is all Merkur and novomatic
Under different names and concepts and licenses but why the whole thing?
