Cantor Gaming has signed an exclusive deal with fantasy magazine Heavy Metal, which will see the diversified gaming company produce a range of online casino games based on the characters in the magazine.

Cantor said it has teamed up with Kevin Eastman, owner of Heavy Metal magazine and co-creator of the successful Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles brand, to bring the characters and storylines to the online gaming market as part of its mission to provide its players with fresh, exciting games from leading brands around the world.

Manu Gambhir, managing director of Cantor Gaming, said: "Heavy Metal has long been a cult classic and our design teams immediately saw the ability to build innovative, cutting-edge casino games based on the brand. The games will be edgy, highly animated and deliver a completely new experience to our players."
