Isn’t this an intriguing question? A few years back, we would hardly have imagined we would have such a wide range of 3D slots to choose from when we want to enjoy a more immersive slot gaming experience. But today we have dozens of them – probably even hundreds.
So, where are things going to go from here? Can we imagine lots more new slots being released in the future – slots that are entirely different to the ones we play today?
Are virtual slot games coming to the fore?
There are indications this could be the next big thing in gaming. Jack and the Beanstalk is available in a virtual reality version from NetEnt and met with some success. This was already a popular game and the translation to virtual reality took it to a whole new level.
There are still very few virtual reality slots and casino games available though. We do think that will change as VR headsets and games become more prevalent (and in the case of the headsets, cheaper and more accessible too).
Will new bonus features be introduced?
Bonus features are included in lots of slot games. Most software developers work hard to create something new, even if it is based around an old favorite like free spins. The leading developers in the business – Microgaming, NetEnt, Betsoft, et al – are always trying to outdo their competitors with new and innovative bonuses. We can expect these to continue long into the future as well.
What would you like to see in future slot game releases?
As graphics get better and software goes the same way, it isn’t as much a question of what can be achieved as what cannot be achieved. Can you imagine playing some new slots in five years from now? How will those games pan out? Which new features will we be used to by then, and which new ones will be on the horizon?
Could we be approaching the day when all new slot games are produced as virtual reality experiences? We sure hope so, as it would add a new dimension – literally – to the gameplay. Stepping into a virtual casino is already possible at SlotsMillion; will other online casinos follow their lead?
We cannot wait to see what the world of slot games has in store for us next. We’ll be there to witness the latest additions. Will you?
