FanDuel has expanded upon its agreement with ITV Studios and the Love Island television franchise to release a new online slot game – Love Island: Unlocked – in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, West Virginia, Michigan and Ontario.
Having originally partnered with ITV Studios in December 2025, Love Island: Unlocked represents the second title to be released on FanDuel Casino as part of the collaboration, developed exclusively for the operator by White Hat Studios.
"As America's number one iGaming operator, we are constantly looking for innovative ways to bring fresh entertainment experiences to our customers while reaching new audiences," FanDuel SVP of Marketing Daniele Phillips said.
"Love Island is known for having an incredibly passionate and engaged fanbase and with this latest launch, we're continuing to bring the spirit and thrill of the franchise to players in new ways, exclusively on FanDuel Casino."
Love Island: Unlocked will feature the operator’s first select-a-character mode, which allows users to play the game as one of the show’s previous contestants.
Through June 2026, FanDuel Casino will offer users free reward box drops and the chance to win a share of a $500,000 prize pool, part of the operator’s Ultimate Island Giveaway sweepstakes.
In addition to Love Island: Unlocked’s debut, Love Island USA Host Ariana Madix was named lead ambassador of the new online slot game. Addressing the launch, Madix said: "Love Island has become a defining part of summer entertainment, so launching Love Island: Unlocked alongside the premiere of the new season feels like the perfect fit.
"It's incredible to see so many iconic moments and fan-favorite elements from The Villa woven into the game in a way that creates an immersive experience that truly captures the energy, excitement and fun viewers love about the series."
Mohegan Digital launched Love Island Unlocked exclusively in Connecticut on June 1, a new online slot game inspired by Love Island USA and containing “several recognizable elements” of the series through themed modifiers and gameplay experiences.
The online slot game was developed by White Hat Studios in partnership with FanDuel and designed to replicate the “drama, twists and challenges” experienced throughout Love Island USA.
FanDuel TV is bringing together former US men's national team coaches Gregg Berhalter, Bruce Arena and Bob Bradley for a World Cup analysis series that will air throughout the tournament
