Aristocrat’s landmark EDGE X cabinet has players on the EDGE of their seats with excitement, and now the company has licensed Star Trek: The Next Generation from CBS Consumer Products for a new game that will further expand the cabinet’s enviable library of leading content.
Aristocrat’s all-new EDGE X cabinet features two stacked, horizontal, curved 43” LCD screens displaying panoramic views, with stereo symphonic surround sound and a virtual button deck, all in a cabinet that occupies a larger-than-life footprint.
Aristocrat will also showcase the Showtime/CBS Consumer Products licensed slot game Billions, which appears on Aristocrat’s innovative flame55 cabinet.
“We are big fans of Star Trek: The Next Generation, and our design and development teams have taken that inspiration and combined it with their passion for play. The result is an innovative game featuring sights and sounds from the series that takes full advantage of the EDGE X cabinet’s cinematic design, and will entertain long-time fans and newer fans alike,” said Jon Hanlin, Vice President Commercial Strategy, Gaming Operations.
In partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products, Aristocrat will also premiere the new Crazy Rich Asians Slot Game.
“We have enjoyed a tremendous partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products, bringing premium licensed titles to our customers and their players around the world. Now we are excited to introduce this new license as the launch title for our new, game-changing cabinet,” said Jon Hanlin, vice president of commercial strategy, gaming operations.
The Crazy Rich Asians slot game will be a heavily themed game featuring sights and sounds from and inspired by the contemporary romantic comedy Crazy Rich Asians, the 2018 blockbuster hit from Warner Bros. Pictures, directed by Jon M. Chu from the acclaimed bestselling novel by Kevin Kwan and featuring an international, all-Asian ensemble cast.
Aristocrat’s portfolio includes several other Warner Bros. Consumer Products licensed titles such as Mad Max: Fury Road, Westworld, The Big Bang Theory, A Christmas Story, and many others.
