Aristocrat Gaming to Introduce New European For Sale Link Lineup
Aristocrat Gaming is rolling out an exciting collection of new For Sale Link games in Europe, set to bring a new level of energy to gaming floors across the region.
Joining the growing list of For Sale Links, which offer customers ownership of Aristocrat content with optional centerpiece packaging, are:
Jin Cai Hao Yun: A For Sale Link that meshes the popular Choy character with 5 Dragons in two distinct settings: Red and Yellow editions, each offering Lucky Zone free game bonuses with expanding and sliding wilds. The popular Hold ‘n Spin feature progressively unlocks more room for Cash-on-Reels tokens, as well as boasting a repeat win mechanic, with a Super Feature unlocking all rows from the start.
Scorchin’ Fortune: Aristocrat’s first multigame For Sale Link introduced in Europe, features three flaming hot 25/50 line base games: Prosperity of the Nile, Tiki Blast and Sky Temple, as well as a Hold ‘n Spin feature. Player-selectable low and mid-denom ranges are available, complementing a selection of operator-configurable grand progressive start-up values.
“Our focus on the For Sale Link segment is driven by our customers’ feedback and their desire to own some of the top Aristocrat games to expand their offering to players. With this, we are on a continued mission to expand our portfolio and deliver on the promise to invest in the EMEA region,” said Marcel Heutmekers, VP of Sales and Operations in EMEA for Aristocrat Gaming.
Earlier this year, Aristocrat Gaming launched For Sale Link titles – Flamin’ Fortune and Mo’ Mummy in Europe. Flamin’ Fortune 50 Lions and Queen of The Nile, appear on the MarsX Portrait cabinet and entertain players with traditional free game bonus features and a new Hold ‘n Spin feature with repeat wins.
Mo’ Mummy: Housed on the MarsX dual screen cabinet, offers players a choice of two base game themes – Mighty Pyramid, inspired by the great pyramids of Egypt – and the Inca-inspired game, Valley of Riches. Mo’ Mummy combines a triple metamorphic and an innovative take on Hold ‘n Spin mechanics through its cash collection feature. In this feature, players can grow ‘zone of pays’ by landing Cash-on-Reels tokens, or metamorphically trigger free games or a jackpot pick ’em feature.
These games and more for EMEA will be featured in the Aristocrat Gaming booth at The Global Gaming Expo (G2E) in Las Vegas from 9 October to 12 October 2023.
