Casino slot machine and digital gaming content provider Aristocrat Gaming says it will use the upcoming Global Gaming Expo (G2E) Asia trade show in Singapore to present a suite of dragon-themed products ready for the Year of the Dragon in 2024.
“We’ve attuned our portfolio to maximise this once-every-twelve-year event,” said Lloyd Robson, Aristocrat general manager Asia, referring to the Chinese lunar calendar, as cited in a Tuesday press release.
The offer to the industry includes “Dragon Link” (pictured), “Tian Ci Jin Lu”, and a standalone “5 Dragons Pearl” product. Other offers include “Jin Cai Hao Yun”, and “Big Fu Cash Dragon”.
“We’re thinking ahead, on behalf of our partners, to ensure they have a wide range of dragon-focused games to choose from,” stated Mr Robson.
Aristocrat Gaming is part of Aristocrat Technologies Inc, a unit of Australia-listed Aristocrat Leisure Ltd.
Dragon Link is said to have broad appeal across mass-market and high-stakes player segments.
Jin Cai Hao Yun is described as a “mashup” of the “5 Dragons” and “Good Fortune” art package, with “new gameplay mechanics”.
Another product “Bao Zhu Zhao Fu” is mentioned as the latest addition to Aristocrat’s “triple metamorphic game” family.
A recent consultation paper on behalf of the authorities in the New Zealand gaming market defines a “metamorphic game” as one where “free games, feature games or prizes, other than jackpots, are triggered by the cumulative result of a series of plays”.
Aristocrat will also show a broad range of standalone titles, including “5 Dragons Ultra”, “Brazil”, “Foo Festival”, “Fortune’s Choice” and two “Big Big Fortune” titles.
G2E Asia 2023 Special Edition: Singapore runs from May 30 to June 1 and combines a trade exhibition and industry conference. It is at the Marina Bay Sands casino resort operated by a unit of Las Vegas Sands Corp.
