Internet betting software group NetEnt has announced that they’re applying for a Pennsylvania gaming license, which will let the company bring their blackjack to the Keystone State.

The state of Pennsylvania legalized online gambling and is in the process of setting up the industry. Thus far, eleven casinos based in the state have applied for gaming licenses, and outside groups will be allowed to apply later in the year. This gives NetEnt a lucrative opportunity to offer their games on multiple sites to eligible punters in the state of 13 million people.

Commenting on the application, NetEnt Americas Managing Director Erik Nyman said, “We are excited to continue our strategic expansion in the US. We have enjoyed success in New Jersey and believe that this will continue in Pennsylvania. We will launch with a mix of our table games, video slots, jackpot games and unique features like free spins that have been greatly appreciated by our customers and their players. Our ambition is to be live in Pennsylvania as soon as the market opens.”

Pennsylvania is expected to bring their online gaming industry into the fold beginning either in late 2018 or early 2019. The state neighbors New Jersey, which has seen a lot of success with its online casino and sportsbetting market.
