BetMGM is expanding its New Jersey online casino portfolio through a continued partnership with AGS, securing exclusive first-to-market rights for new titles in the Rakin’ Bacon! slot franchise.

The agreement gives BetMGM Casino a period of exclusivity for the upcoming releases, all of which are launching as online games.

Three-game rollout begins

The first title in the new wave, Rakin’ Bacon! Triple Oink Soda Fountain Fortunes, is available now.

Two additional releases are already scheduled:

  • Rakin’ Bacon! Triple Oink San Shen Zhu on May 12
  • Rakin’ Bacon! Fu Zhu Bao Bao on July 2

The rollout focuses on expanding the Rakin’ Bacon! brand in the online slots space, building on its success as both a land-based and digital slot franchise.

BetMGM leans into exclusive content

BetMGM executives framed the deal as part of a broader strategy to give players early access to high-demand titles. Oliver Bartlett, BetMGM’s senior vice president of gaming, said in a statement:

“The Rakin’ Bacon! franchise is a proven mainstay on casino floors and online. Securing first-to-market rights is a natural extension of the strong relationship we’ve built with top-tier game suppliers like AGS.

“As a premier online casino destination, it is our commitment to offer players first access to the most anticipated titles.”

The title is also available on Borgata Casino.

Franchise continues strong performance

Led by its golden pig mascot, Cornsquealius, Rakin’ Bacon! has been a consistent performer for BetMGM.

According to the company, two titles from the franchise ranked among the platform’s top 15 iGaming offerings in 2025.

The series has evolved over time from its original pot-collection New Jersey online casino bonus format into a broader set of gameplay styles and features designed to match player preferences.

AGS expands digital footprint

AGS, which develops the Rakin’ Bacon! games, said the partnership reflects its focus on bringing successful land-based titles into the online space. Zoe Ebling, the company’s vice president of interactive, added:

“AGS is focused on bringing the energy of land-based favorites into the digital world in ways that drive real engagement.

“Our continued partnership with BetMGM and bringing even more Rakin’ Bacon! titles online cements AGS’ commitment to offering standout gaming experiences to players across both platforms.”

Growing iGaming library

BetMGM said its platform now features more than 7,000 games across North America, including a network of more than 25 exclusive progressive jackpot titles.

Players on the platform can also earn BetMGM Rewards Points and Tier Credits, which can be redeemed for bonuses and other loyalty program benefits.

As competition continues in markets like New Jersey, exclusive content agreements such as this one remain a key part of operators’ strategies to attract and retain players.
