Austrian gaming supplier Novomatic AG announced it is expanding its footprint at South Korea’s Kangwon Land Casino. Via local distribution partner Korea Gaming Solution, the supplier recently installed 68 new video slots at the casino, bringing its total footprint there to 280 Novomatic machines.

“The latest installation… further augments the casino’s international approach in terms of gaming technology and games,” said Novomatic.

The latest addition of Novomatic product to Kangwon Land’s casino floor includes the Panthera 2.27 cabinet, the Dominator Curve 1.43, and the Gaminator Scorpion 2.24, according to the release. Each of the cabinets is said to provide a selection of games that “meet the preferences of the casino guests” at Kangwon Land.

“I am very pleased that our guests really enjoy playing Novomatic products,” said Sang-Rae Lee, Kangwon Land’s slot manager. “I look forward to seeing more new games coming out in the future.”

Novomatic had experienced “a huge growth rate every year” in the South Korean market, said Samuel Lee, chief executive of Korea Gaming Solution. “Not only in Kangwon Land Casino—in fact, all our customers are satisfied with the Novomatic products. It is a great honor to be able to deliver these products to the Korean market.”
