The future is on display at this year’s expo, showcasing the Company’s industry-leading products, systems and technologies that players and partners love across gaming, iGaming and sports.
“Excitement has been building for months now as our teams crafted a product lineup to showcase this year at G2E,” said Barry Cottle, President and CEO at Scientific Games. “After months of virtual gatherings, we’re ready to get together safely, and to show everyone what we’ve been working on. This is truly a dynamic moment for the industry and for our Company as we’re progressing rapidly in our strategy and our vision to become the leading cross-platform global game company.”
Omni-Channel Content Changing the Game
Scientific Games continually captivates the player as a collaborative team of creators that turn every extraordinary game into an expansive world through new stories and thrills.
Whether glittering on a casino floor or displaying eye-catching graphics on your mobile or desktop, the Company has built a world of content that players love across licensed and home-grown brands including 88 Fortunes®, Monopoly Lunar New Year and Coin Combo®. This omni-channel approach grants players the flexibility to find the games they know and love, when and where they want.
Joining the team on the stand this year will be members of the Company’s brand-new Vegas-based iGaming studio, who will share how they are bringing to life powerful omni-channel game families. This new iGaming studio works shoulder-to-shoulder with Scientific Games’ land-based studios to create dynamic content for the U.S. market.
Leading iGaming Content and Platform
OpenGaming™ is the world’s leading end-to-end iGaming ecosystem, providing immersive player experiences with easy, direct access to an unmatched global network of studios, operators, games, features and technology.
The Company’s most notable games will be at attendees’ fingertips, including the highly-polished space-themed title, Invaders Megaways™. Taking inspiration from the Company’s much-loved Invaders from the Planet Moolah® slot theme, Invaders Megaways combines an authentic slot experience with the popular Megaways mechanic, a random reel modifier system that fuels a next-level player experience with randomly shifting symbol sets that allow for virtually endless payline combinations. The game is just one of the more than 4,400 titles available from the global network of in-house and third-party game studios that OpenGaming offers.
Additionally, the Company will showcase content from its new studios. Games from the recently acquired Lightning Box studio share the spotlight, including Lightning Shenlong™, an Asian-inspired experience with power-packed Lightning Respin® where multiple prizes and four different jackpots are up for grabs.
Top-Performing Hardware
