US – IGT rolls out Ghostbusters 4D Video Slots in North America
By Phil - 10 August 2018
International Game Technology is giving Ghostbusters fans a paranormal reason to flock to casino floors with the release of its new game, Ghostbusters 4D Video Slots.
Players at The D Las Vegas, Bear River Casino Resort in Loleta, California, Sandia Resort & Casino in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Graton Resort & Casino in Rohnert Park, California, are among the first in the country to spin their way to big jackpots and to test their ghost-blasting skills on the much-anticipated slot title. The technology-rich Ghostbusters 4D game delivers fun you can feel through its use of TRUE 3D, mid-air haptic and gesture recognition technologies, and brings to life many fan-favorite movie moments from the franchise’s original 1984 film.
Ghostbusters 4D leverages IGT’s TRUE 3D technology to deliver eye-popping 3D graphics, without the use of glasses, Ecto-goggles, or other peripherals. The proprietary technology leverages eye and head movement-tracking cameras to enable classic ghostly characters such as Slimer, the Terror Dogs, and the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man to materialise right in front of your eyes.
The game uses mid-air haptic technology, allowing Ghostbusters 4D players to feel the game’s 3D graphics in mid-air. In bonuses, such as the “Ballroom Blaster Bonus,” a player’s finger becomes a proton blaster, and as players hunt for ghosts and credits, they will feel an energy stream sensation tingling their fingertips.
There are secret gestures that will unveil new game content. Players can draw a variety of shapes in mid-air any time while playing Ghostbusters 4D and be entertained by customised play and paranormal interactions.
The game is full of classic movie footage. On lucky spins players enjoy memorable silver screen moments from Sony Pictures Entertainment’s original 1984 Ghostbusters movie, featuring the Ghostbusters, Zuul, the Terror Dogs, Slimer, Ecto-1 and more.
Housed in IGT’s CrystalCurve TRUE 4D cabinet, the towering game demands attention on casino floors with its 32-inch, landscape-oriented ultra-HD, 4K lower display, and its 50-inch, portrait-oriented, ultra-HD 4K upper display. The game is accompanied by a multi-media sound chair that includes player-adjustable setting for volume, seat rumble, 3-D intensity.
