The deal was brokered by Richmond Management Group and provides GameCo access to all of the Star Trek TV series, including; Star Trek: The Original Series, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Star Trek: Voyager and Star Trek: Enterprise.

“This fan-favourite franchise has been entertaining people across the globe and is established as one of the most iconic and popular brands ever,” said Rich Maryyanek, Global Business Development (person), for GameCo Inc.

“We are excited to work with CBS Consumer Products to bring a space battle action game to casino floors that highlight the entertainment value Star Trek is known for.”

GameCo will release 10 or more new video game gambling machine titles this year, including games currently in development under license from major developers and entertainment IP companies. This includes StudioCanal S.A.S’ Terminator 2: Judgment Day, and Paramount’s Paranormal, Ferris Bueller and Mission Impossible franchises.
