Gamesys Acquires Virgin Bingo
It's goodbye Virtue Fusion and hello Gamesys software at Virgin Bingo. A recent acquisition of an undisclosed amount is the reason for the change and scheduled for later this year. The deal was made to further “develop real money and social gaming propositions globally under the Virgin brand”.

There will no adverse effects for bingo players or Virgin Games on the whole other than the fact that the software will change. All the games currently available will be replaced with those supported and licensed by Gamesys. One of the attractions of Virgin Bingo was the variety of games offered by the brand. It is yet to be seen what offerings will remain once the software integration is complete.

Owner of Virgin Games, Richard Branson said: “We are delighted the Gamesys Group has acquired Virgin Games and formed a partnership to build a global games business. Simon Burridge and his team built a strong platform and now with the help of the Gamesys Group we can expand further internationally. We believe the Gamesys Group shares our vision and will be great partners in the sector.”

Gamesys software was established in 2001. Bingo sites currently powered by Gamesys include Caesars Bingo, Fabulous Bingo, Jackpotjoy Bingo and Sun Bingo.
