Leading slot manufacturer International Game Technology revealed its product lineup for next week’s ICE Totally Gaming trade show, where the company will occupy stand N4-240 at London’s ExCel Centre.
IGT is redefining gaming entertainment on land, online and on-the-go, and with our strong global footprint, we’re uniquely positioned to deliver the experiences that players want, anytime, anywhere,” said Eric Tom, IGT executive vice president of global sales.
“We’re transforming the global gaming experience with bold new content, backed by truly international appeal,” said Tom. “ICE Totally Gaming provides us with the exceptional opportunity to deliver the industry’s most entertaining, cross-platform gaming experiences to the important European market.”
IGT’s new logo and brand positioning will make their European debut at ICE 2014, along with the theme “Out of the Blue.”
Among the product highlights:
• The game “Venture to Never Isle” will make its world debut. Housed on IGT’s CenterStage Duo platform, the game “transcends a timeless tale while offering players symbol-driven gaming entertainment with big win potential and captivating bonuses,” according to the company.
• “Jenga Tower of Money” makes its debut. The new premium title is inspired by the classic Jenga game of stacking and crashing. Bonus rounds afford players the opportunity to pick the perfect piece of Jenga Tower of Money fun with the hopes the trademark tower does not topple over.
• Other featured games include “James Cameron’s Avatar,” on the CenterStage platform; and new movie and TV-themed games including “Back to the Future: Back in Time,” “Bridesmaids” and “Sex and the City Platinum.” All three premium titles allow new content to be seamlessly “unlocked” over time, introducing a new player experience without having to change themes or cabinets.
• Core games in the Reel Edge skill-based series include “Aladdin Prince of Adventure,” which features a video-game bonus round in which players use a joystick to zip through the air on a magic carpet, collecting coins and earning a bonus award.
• “Prowling Panther” heads up the Multiway Xtra series, featuring 720 ways to win, free games and stacked multipliers.
• “Winner’s Choice” gives fans of IGT classics the choice of six well-loved IGT slots such as Treasures of Troy, Cleopatra, Wolf Run and more in the “MultiPLAY” format, which runs four reel sets simultaneously.
• On the system side, IGT will demonstrate sbX, its fully agnostic server-based casino management solution; IGT Casinolink, a premium tool for multi-site and route operators;
and IGT Cloud, the casino management service solution that operators can use to seamlessly download and configure games, immediately analyze the impact, and engage players; and Tournament Manager 3.0, which transforms the traditional single-player slot experience into slot and video poker tournaments.
• For interactive markets, IGT will display its rgs (remote game server), which brings premium content to online and mobile channels. Licensed titles include “Battleship,” “Monopoly Dream Life” and “Transformers Battle for Cybertron.”
• Social gaming comes to ICE with IGT’s DoubleDown Casino, the social casino available on Facebook and for mobile devices that has become a powerful new revenue-generator for the company.
