Four Groupe Partouche casinos in France have installed 24 of GTECH’s “Sphinx 3D,” the first title in its “True 3D” video slot series, which features the most realistic 3D effect available on a slot machine.
The Sphinx 3D game is the first of its kind to use a glasses-free 3D display. It pairs auto-stereoscopic technology with eye-tracking that constantly adjusts the image based on the player’s line of sight. This generates a high-resolution image that leaps off the screen, creating an experience unlike any other game on the market.
“We have chosen GTECH’s Sphinx 3D machines because they are a true innovation,” said Fabrice Paire, general director of Groupe Partouche. “For our locations, it is the perfect highlight on the slot floor, with lots of potential to create very strong external communication around it. The eye-catching exterior of the AXXIS cabinet, combined with the amazing 3D effects, are exactly the kind of product we want to offer our players. We believe that these are the best premium machines.”
Groupe Partouche has installed machines at their casinos in Aix-en-Provence (Bouches-du-Rhône), Saint-Amand-les-Eaux (Nord), Pornichet (Loire-Atlantique) and Le Pharaon à Lyon (Rhône).
“The feedback we are receiving from the operators as well as players is extremely positive,” said GTECH International Vice President of Commercial Gaming Marcel Heutmekers. “Players are enjoying the 3D effects, as they enhance the typical gaming experience and add an extra level of excitement. The efficiency of the installation, as well as the customer satisfaction, has demonstrated our team’s professionalism and commitment. We are looking forward to introducing more True 3D titles to the industry in the months to come.”
