Everi Launches Casablanca™ on New Empire MPX™ Premium Cabinet for Class II Wide-Area Progressive and Class III Local-Area...
June 22 2017 - 7:30AM
Everi Holdings Inc. (NYSE:EVRI) (“Everi” or the “Company”), the
casino gaming industry’s single source provider of gaming products
and payments solutions, in partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer
Products, today announced the launch of
Casablanca, a video-reel game and the Company’s
first licensed game theme for its Wide-Area Progressive (“WAP”)
link, developed exclusively for Class II markets, and Local-Area
Progressive (“LAP”) developed for Class III markets.
Casablanca is featured on the
Empire MPX, Everi’s
newest premium gaming cabinet, and is part of the Company’s Class
II WAP link which went live in February 2017. The new
Casablanca game theme is now live at three casinos across Oklahoma,
Connecticut and Louisiana and will be rolled out to many more
casinos and markets in the coming months. Everi’s Class II
WAP link has a base jackpot amount of $100,000 and combines popular
games with a large linked progressive platform and unique math
model to heighten player excitement and engagement.
Leveraging the unique characteristics of the Empire
MPX cabinet, Casablanca features iconic entertainment elements from
the classic film that truly elevate the exciting slot game
play. Based on the 1942 timeless American romantic drama,
which ranks second on the American Film Institute’s 100 Greatest
American Movies of All Time list, Casablanca is a five-reel,
30-line video game with multiple exciting bonus features, including
the Rick’s Café bonus featuring the classic song, “As Time Goes
By.” Perfectly capturing the timeless chemistry between Rick Blaine
and Ilsa Lund, the new Casablanca slot game brings the romance and
adventure of Rick’s Café Americain to life on casino floors.
The Empire MPX cabinet offers casino operators the
flexibility to “nest” the cabinets in several different bank
configurations, allowing for the placement of more cabinets in a
dedicated space which saves up to 25% casino floor space compared
to traditional bank configurations. The Empire MPX also features a
43-inch full HD display, game-controlled lighting with backlight
feature, a new ergonomic LCD button deck with the Company’s
award-winning Everi Bet™ wager configuration feature and USB
support docks. In addition, Everi’s new Empire MPX includes two
overhead spotlight features and an optional 55-inch full HD
overhead Empire sign.
Executive Vice President and Games Business Leader,
Dean Ehrlich, commented, “Our new Casablanca game featured in the
Empire MPX gaming cabinet is an exciting addition to our product
portfolio. Our talented game design team has created an
engaging game that leverages the many technology innovations of our
new Empire MPX cabinet, offering players a premium gaming
entertainment experience. We believe the combination of the
player-appealing Casablanca game theme and the Empire MPX cabinet
is sure to keep players engaged and energized. This game
release is a significant step forward in our overall product
roadmap strategy and only the beginning of great content that will
follow.”
