IGT giving G2E debut to ‘Peak’ slot cabinets

IGT giving G2E debut to ‘Peak’ slot cabinets

International Game Technology Plc (IGT) is to give a trade event debut to its new “Peak” range of casino gaming hardware. The equipment supplier and lottery services firm is to present three slot game cabinets from the range.

IGT will present the products at its more than 24,000-square-feet (2,230 sq metres) stand at Global Gaming Expo, a casino industry trade show and conference taking place this week in Las Vegas, Nevada, in the United States.

The PeakSlant 49 is said to feature a curved, 49-inch, ultra high-definition display, a 13.3-inch panel for game play, and a wireless charging port for personal devices. The cabinet is backed by a large library of games including the “Scarab Link”.

IGT will also introduce the ‘PeakSlant 49 with Wheel’ cabinet designed to be paired with the firm’s “Wheel of Fortune” slot games. This cabinet is said to include a 49-inch, ultra-HD touchscreen display and is topped with a 27-inch Wheel of Fortune wheel.

In addition, IGT will also showcase its new PeakBarTop cabinet at the event.

The company will also introduce what it describes as “evolutions” of market-proven game themes across its video slot, stepper and multi-level progressive segments. The titles include the Chinese-themed “Fu Gui Long Feng” and “Dragon Lights”.

“Our focus on the player extends to new hardware introductions with content designed to engage and delight, and innovative technologies that simplify the player experience,” said Renato Ascoli, IGT’s chief executive North America, in prepared comments contained in a Wednesday press release.

On August 1, IGT declared an interim dividend for its shareholders. For the three months to June 30, the group saw net profit down sharply, influenced by factors including performance of the interactive segment and “non-wager-related items” said Alberto Fornaro, the group’s chief financial officer.

For that quarter the international sales division – which includes the Asia-Pacific region – reported a 46-percent increase in revenue when currency exchange rates were excluded from the calculations.
