Australia – IGT raises the game at Australasian Game Expo
By Phil - 7 August 2019
International Game Technology is showcasing a strong line-up of regionally attuned games with exciting new features, a diverse range of volatilities, and new styles of game play at his year’s AGE held from from August 13 to 15.
“IGT is offering an array of engaging products designed to deliver more player entertainment and strengthen player loyalty while increasing performance at our customers’ gaming venues,” said Andrew Hely, Managing Director of IGT Asia Pacific. “For example, our recently launched Bubble Blast; Link is performing exceptionally well on game floors. At AGE, we’re unveiling a new game for this link, Spells and Whistles;, as well as launching a standalone progressive version of the game to provide smaller venues with greater variety on the gaming floor.”
Other examples of IGT’s high-performing solutions at AGE include the Cleopatra Rising game, an evolution of IGT’s Waterfall play feature where one spin can affect the next, including multi-denoms, jackpots, and a scalable bonus prize. It’s the first in IGT’s “Rising” range now live in the market and entertaining players with engaging graphics. Two new games in the series are being unveiled at AGE: the Fortune Rising and Treasure Rising games. As well as featuring new themes, these titles offer players an additional option in the high-denom segment.
Additional featured titles include the Fortune Coin; game, a strong global performer localised for the Australian market with a progressive feature that boosts bonus prizes. IGT’s Multistar Legends; theme offers six classic games with a twist — a new-style jackpot where two-game groups share a special progressive jackpot.
IGT’s Systems team is debuting the Cardless Connect; solution in the region. This technology puts the player loyalty card on players’ mobile phones, enabling a new series of product offerings for customers, driving strong player uptake, and providing a convenient, ‘frictionless’ way for patrons to interact with their venue of choice.
