As we slog through the unprecedented health crisis that is COVID-19, it’s hard to believe that anything will ever return to “normal,” or at least to the way it was before the virus hit.

Indeed, as I write this, 12 percent of U.S. land-based casino facilities remain shuttered due to coronavirus restrictions, according to the American Gaming Association (AGA). Properties that have been fortunate enough to reopen are operating under a long list of COVID-prevention mandates that are limiting the number of people allowed on the gaming floor, the number of slot machines and table game positions in play and the availability of resort entertainments such as restaurants and pools. The impacts of these casino closures and businesses limitations have had a dramatic impact on the U.S. commercial casino marketplace, where year-to-date gross gaming revenues are down 46 percent and year-to-date slot revenues are down 78 percent, according to the AGA.

Despite these alarming statistics, there is still reason to believe the land-based casino slot market will return to its former money-generating glory, hopefully sooner rather than later. As evidence for this belief, we at Slot Management & Marketing present the 2020 World of Slots, which shows—despite all the casino closures, slot limits and even the cancellation of the industry’s leading tradeshow (Global Gaming Expo)—gaming machines manufacturers are busy creating and introducing new concepts and cabinets for casino operators and gaming audiences. Read on to experience all the latest innovations from leading manufacturers, in their own words:

INCREDIBLE TECHNOLOGIES

The Infinity Pilot in a dogbone configuration from Incredible Technologies.

 

Throughout the challenges of 2020, Incredible Technologies’ (IT) commitment to its partners and employees has never wavered, pledging to remain “In It Together,” echoing IT’s longstanding effort to help operators optimize their floors to look and feel stronger than ever.

After years of success in the Class III gaming market, IT is proud to announce that it will now offer its award-winning slot products to Class II operators. The move to enter Class II markets is a significant milestone for IT and strengthens the company’s support for tribes and their sovereignty. IT’s central-determinant system has undergone field testing at select locations while the initial rollout will be phased, targeting Class II-only markets first with IT’s signature games on Infinity Skybox and Infinity V55.

When the casino industry faced the unprecedented need for social distancing on the slot floor, IT was able to take its proven banking strategies to the next level. The success of the V55 Edge continues, with IT now providing a retrofit kit to transform standard V55 banks, noting that Edge configurations increase performance up to 25 percent. Using the same clever design techniques to think bigger, IT debuted a new bank merchandising solution with built-in social-distancing—the Universal Jumbo Edge (UJE). Rather than remove EGMs or place costly and temporary plexiglass dividers, the UJE can seamlessly slide into a vacant position using dynamic 4K video, creating a stunning slot bank package that can stand the test of time.

With proven titles in both core and premium product segments racing up performance charts, the development of unique and innovative games remains a top priority for IT.

“From DIMENSION 49J’s pipeline of premium entertainment to DIMENSION 27’s strong SeleXion mix of proven Konami classics, our goal is to bring long-term business value to operators while bringing enduring entertainment value to the player,” said Tom Jingoli, executive vice president and chief operating officer for Konami.

In terms of casino systems technology, Konami’s award-winning SYNKROS is in the midst of record-breaking growth. During the challenges of this year, SYNKROS users have leveraged the advantage of SYNKROS’ robust, agile infrastructure to deploy remote upgrades, and in one case, even a remote rollout.

TAITO Corporation, a globally recognized pioneer in the video game industry famous for producing SPACE INVADERS, BUBBLE BOBBLE and ARKANOID, is entering the mobile e-sports arena through a partnership with Next Gaming and Celer Network.

BUST-A-MOVE Real Money Tournament is the first mobile e-sports title from this joint collaboration introducing the original bubble shooter game, BUST-A-MOVE as a 100 percent skill-based, real-money competition on mobile devices. In 1994, TAITO defined the bubble shooter game genre by introducing BUST-A-MOVE onto the arcade scene. Following a massive global success of the arcade release, many versions of the game were introduced on various consoles.

Recently, Next Gaming reimagined BUST-A-MOVE in a skill-based video slot machine format that stars Bub and Bob (the twin dragon co-stars), which will be in U.S. casinos this year. “We wanted to bring a version of our game, and others to follow, to a larger audience by tapping into Celer Network’s expertise in game distribution, network, compliance and security,” said Michael Darley, CEO of Next Gaming. “The benefits of running on a layer-2 blockchain game platform provides an extra level of security and peace of mind for our players, especially when playing for real money in the i-gaming and e-sports markets.”

The collaboration team is working on featuring a series of mobile e-sports games based on TAITO’s game titles that are loved by generations around the globe. “On its 25th anniversary, we’re honored to bring BUST-A-MOVE Real Money Tournament to the fans where they can test their skills in a real money competition directly from their personal mobile devices,” said Dr. Mo Dong, co-founder of Celer Network. “We are excited to see Celer’s advanced layer-2 blockchain scaling solution is powering this initiative.”

Additional games are expected to be released in the second half of 2020.
