Aristocrat Gaming has officially launched Wild Wild Buffalo, the latest in its wildly popular Buffalo game franchise, on the immersive new Neptune Double cabinet, to all markets, and has partnered with the Seminole Tribe of Florida to launch the new Dragon Link Progressive Jackpot.
Wild Wild Buffalo combines the iconic Buffalo brand with the symbol-driven simplicity of Wild Wild Cash-on-Reel pays, plus a Buffalo Grand-style bonus wheel that awards progressives, progressive multipliers and free games.
Wild Wild Buffalo surrounds players with the sights, sounds, and excitement of a classic Western movie in a high-volatility game with frequent features. Denominations range from pennies to 5c cents in multi-site progressive configuration, and from pennies to 20 cents in a single-site progressive configuration.
There are also six jackpot levels, with an MSP that starts at $500,000 and an SSP that starts at $10,000.
Bonus features include the Wild Wild Bonus, where wild symbols on reels 1 and 2 award Cash-on-Reel Buffalo pays and random 2X multipliers. The Jackpot Bonus Wheel awards progressives, progressive multipliers and free games, while the Bonus Wheel awards up to 10X progressive multiplier. Buffalo’s legendary free games feature awards Forever Free Games with Multiplier Wilds and Wild Wild potential.
Wild Wild Buffalo is available exclusively on the new Neptune Double, with its stacked, curved 49-inch monitors, 4K graphics, expansive virtual button deck, and custom-designed, adjustable sound chair.
In a separate release, Aristocrat Gaming announced that it has joined with Seminole Gaming in Florida to launch a new $1 million Dragon Link high-limit progressive jackpot.
Building on the success of the Dragon Link high-denomination slot, the Dragon Link $1 million progressive jackpot is found exclusively at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood and Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa. Each property will have linked progressive jackpots starting at $1 million, meaning players will have two places to play for $1 million jackpots.
Less than a year ago, the newest iteration of Dragon Link, which offers high- and mid-denomination bets and a larger linked or standalone jackpot, made its world premiere at Hard Rock Tampa. With the success of the game, Aristocrat and Seminole Gaming worked together to bring the $1 million jackpot to life.
“With more than 220 Dragon Link games currently installed across our Florida Hard Rock and Seminole Gaming properties, we are proud to offer this new high-denomination offering,” said David Hoenemeyer, chief operating officer of Seminole Gaming. “This is a first of its kind for this game, and we are proud to offer a life-changing $1 million dollar progressive jackpot payable on the spot.”
“As it has been with all Dragon Link games, player reception to the high-denom and mid-denom Dragon Link games has been overwhelmingly positive,” said Jon Hanlin, senior vice president of commercial strategy and business analytics at Aristocrat Gaming. “Given that incredible player reception, Seminole Gaming approached us with player feedback, and we worked together to turn on the $1 million jackpot functionality in response.”
The Dragon Link $1 million jackpot game has a $25 minimum bet and a $2,500 maximum bet.
