Scientific Games Corporation announces the official ribbon-cutting of its newest, most advanced lottery instant game technology at the Company’s Leeds, UK production facility which serves the UK National Lottery and 50 lotteries in Europe and internationally. With the new technology, the world’s largest creator, manufacturer and services provider of lottery instant “scratch” games expands its global production capacity by 20%. The additional production volume is expected to add an estimated 175 employees to the Company’s UK workforce. Scientific Games’ Leeds facility is one of five global instant games production centers serving the worldwide lottery industry with products representing 70% of global retail sales.

Hilary Benn, Member of Parliament for Leeds Central, participated in a COVID-safe ribbon-cutting ceremony and tour with Scientific Games executives Mark Scholey, VP Global Manufacturing, and Kevin Anderson, VP Global Strategic Accounts EMEA, as well as a host of the Company’s UK employees.

“Our investment in this UK production expansion represents our strong commitment to serve the UK National Lottery and lotteries throughout Europe, and to entertain the world’s players through our instant game innovation,” said Anderson.

Scientific Games has produced instant games for the UK National Lottery since its inception in 1994. Serving as the National Lottery’s exclusive instant game provider, the Company played a key role in helping the Lottery’s instant game business grow to become a $4.7 billion (USD) consumer product category that funds its UK beneficiary programs. The National Lottery is currently ranked sixth in the world for total instant game sales (La Fleur’s 2020 Almanac, per capita retail sales).

“This technology expansion allows lotteries to bring new games to market more quickly so they can offer just-in-time inventory at retail. The expansion strengthens our nearly 50 years of global leadership in lottery instant products, and importantly helps our lottery customers drive maximum proceeds to support their beneficiary programs,” said Scholey.

The new instant games production technology at Scientific Games’ Leeds facility is the most advanced in the world, offering a wide range of flexibility in game innovation including playstyle, color, images, ticket sizes, and specialty papers and finishes. The technology manufactures instant game tickets at 1,000 feet per minute and supports the Company’s commitment to quality environmental practices with the use of green technology, recyclable paper, water-based inks and energy-efficient processes. It was custom-designed by Scientific Games engineers and TRESU a global provider of uniquely engineered, advanced technology solutions.

The Company developed the technology that launched the world’s very first secure instant lottery game in 1974 and continues to set the global lottery industry’s gold standard for game programming security. Scientific Games is certified by the World Lottery Association as a Responsible Gaming supplier and currently designs and manufactures lottery instant games for more than 100 lotteries worldwide, including 19 of the Top 20 performing instant game lotteries worldwide (La Fleur’s 2020 Almanac, per capita retail sales).

Scientific Games is the largest lottery systems technology provider in Europe and a leading provider of digital lottery games, mobile apps, and player loyalty programs. Recently, the Company acquired UK-based Sideplay Entertainment to expand its digital lottery eInstant game studios globally.

Nolimit City boards a wild ride at 35,000 feet in Flight Mode

Published

Dear passengers, welcome aboard Flight NLC25! Flight Mode is cleared for takeoff and let’s just say, it’s not a typical family trip to Hawaii. After delivering signature slots like Tombstone Slaughter: El Gordo’s Revenge and Duck Hunters, Nolimit City is now taking it to the skies with Flight Mode and definitely not in a boring way.

Imagine having a crying baby as your only soundtrack, permanent turbulence and a seatmate who thinks deodorant is optional. The Bud Jet airline might not get you from A to B but it’ll drop you into a feature-packed slot and the kind of excitement you can always expect when playing a Nolimit City slot.

In Flight Mode, winning combinations will explode, making room for new symbols to drop in. With every win, the next multiplier value climbs by +1 and applies to new symbols that fall in.

Wild Symbol: The regular Wild symbol that can land on any reel and substitute for any regular symbol.

Multiplier Increaser: Triggered when they land and add its value to the next multiplier value. Multiplier values of symbols are 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x and 10x.

Golden Multiplier Increaser: Triggered when it lands and doubles the value of the next multiplier.

Explosive items are strictly prohib… well, not on this aircraft. The Bomb symbol clears all regular paying symbols on its reel and row when there are no winning combinations. Only Scatter and Wild symbols are saved from the explosions.

Apologies dear passengers, the lavatory is currently occupied! The signature xHole™ is back in Flight Mode, this time disguised as a toilet. All symbols from the main reels are flushed down and then spat out to random positions with the next multiplier value. Just to add an extra twist to it, xHole™ then transforms itself into a Wild symbol that also gets the next multiplier value. Not so hygienic…

 

Flee Spins

This is the captain speaking – we’re going down! Prepare your life jacket and be ready for a spontaneous meet-up with the sharks during Flee Spins! Land 3, 4, or 5 Scatter Symbols to trigger 6, 9, or 12 Flee Spins, respectively.

Upgrade your seat to Bud Jet’s nice price class when purchasing one of these Nolimit Boosters:

-Print Spins: guarantees a spin that starts off with a 30x multiplier on each paying symbol.

-Printier Spins: guarantees a spin that starts off with a 268x multiplier on each paying symbol.
-Printiest Spins: guarantees a spin that starts off with a 911x multiplier on each paying symbol.

No legroom, no peanuts – but you do get Extra Spins. After a round ends, players may get the option to purchase an additional spin, maintaining the current multiplier state of all previously landed symbols.

The special xGod™ mechanic is locked away disguised as passports on the bottom row, secured behind bulletproof glass and a seatbelt that actually works. Each Bomb explosion breaks the panel of its respective reel, bringing you one step closer to landing a Max Win.

The maximum payout of Flight Mode is 5,051x the base bet. Flight Mode is rated as “Extremely Volatile” delivering the thrilling high-stakes gameplay that Nolimit City fans know and love.

Per Lindheimer, Head of Product at Nolimit City, said: “This isn’t your standard trip from A to B. Flight Mode is what happens when you let a slot company rewrite the in-flight safety manual, handing out dynamite instead of peanuts.”

Flight Mode’ will be available to all Nolimit City partners on June 17th, 2025.
