Online casino software developer Playtech has recently announced that one of the newest games the company intends to release will be themed after the popular book and movie named "Cowboys and Aliens".

The new game will possibly be released sometimes during Q2 or Q3 2012, and will be the first branded Playtech game that will not be themed after one of the famous Marvel comic super hero series. The news came after Playtech managed to form an agreement with the company Platinum Studios that holds the rights to the brand.

Playtech's decision to use this popular theme as one of its new slot game brands came after the positive success of the Marvel comics branded slots. Playtech developed slots like Iron Man 2, The Fantastic Four, X-Men and others are some of the most famous games in the casino industry.

The theme Cowboys and Aliens became famous after Platinum Studios licensed DreamWorks to create a move about it. The movie Cowboys and Aliens was released by Universal Pictures in North American and Paramount Pictures internationally and grossed over $170 million.

The CEO of Platinum Studios Scott Mitchell Rosenberg commented the following:

"Gaming is a whole new playing field for us, and perfectly follows Cowboys and Aliens' success at the box office. I'm looking forward to people playing Cowboys and Aliens slots in their living rooms!"
