and to engage a broad demographic of players."
Wheel of Fortune 4D slots is a Wide Area Progressive (WAP) jackpot–eligible game that is housed on IGT's towering CrystalCurve TRUE 4D cabinet. Te game incorporates iconic gameplay elements such as the millionaire- making ‘Wheel Bonus’ with its signature ‘WHEEL-OF-FORTUNE’ chant, and the likeness of Wheel of Fortune TV personality Vanna White. Wheel of Fortune 4D introduces a bank- wide bonus event across the 50ins., curved, ultra-HD upper displays of up to six banked cabinets to create one unified graphic of the Wheel of Fortune wheel. Te player whose winning wager initiated the bonus can then spin the wheel and all Wheel of Fortune 4D players sitting at the bank will delight in a shared experience.
Te Wheel of Fortune 4D game was joined on the booth IGT’s other TRUE 4D titles including Ghostbusters 4D and the award-winning SPHINX 4D games. Each delivers a trully immersive experience with cameras calibrated to the player’s eyes to deliver a very specifc 3D experience. On the booth at G2E IGT confirmed that its greatly anticipated SPHINX 4D will be out and on casino floors by the end of the year.
Building on the market anticipation of IGT TRUE 4D games, one of Hollywood’s most-celebrated movie franchises will come to life in IGT's Ghostbusters 4D. Te five-level, WAP-eligible progressive leverages TRUE 3D, gesture recognition and mid-air haptic technologies with a curved 50ins., ultra-HD upper display and its curved, 32ins., ultra-HD lower display. During the game players can wave their hands to shoot an energy beam at the Slimer character, and to draw mid-air symbols to unlock game features. Watching players try to duck beneath the marauding green ghost as it leaps at them is almost as entertaining as playing the game.
At the same time, IGT is continuing to support its ground-breaking 3D product line and confirmed that there are now over 3,000 3D products in the field worldwide. At G2E, attendees were be transported to Pandora with the launch of the James Cameron's AVATAR 3D game, and were challenged to outrun raptors while playing the Jurassic World 3D game on the AXXIS 3D cabinet. Wheel of Fortune 3D Wild Sapphires game, was in addition to the 4D variant, but this time with IGT’s new TRUE 3D Reels game. Finally, Red White & Blue 3D game, the newest iteration of one of IGT's most storied game themes, also brought a classic theme from IGT bang up to date at the show.
Aside from the products, of which there were over 400 on the booth at G2E, IGT has been working with customers to help them differentiate their slot floor by segmenting the games it creates into defined categories. Tis segementation strategy is designed to help operators with their slot banking strategies and player segmentation.

Introducing the core segmentation model at G2E, products on the booth featured game toppers for easy reference; the segments group together games with similar features and play mechanics to remove operator guesswork from machine banking strategies. IGT has created distinct product segments, including: waterfall
games, jackpot games, innovation games, pure core games, etc., each designed to appeal to individual sets of players, allowing operators to group kindred games together on their floor. IGT isn’t just doing this for the new games it produces, but is categorising its back catalogue with cross-over multiple segments to assist operators in configuring their floor of existing and new titles.
Additional standout slot titles could be found on the CrystalCurve ULTRA cabinet also includes IGT's new Blake Shelton game. Apparently the country and western singer is a bit popular in the US, but what’s more important is the WAP- eligible progressive gives players a front row seat to play through music hits, while the game leverages a built-in player camera and Dynamic Attract technology, to immerse the player in the ‘Country and Western’ experience.
Tankfully, IGT also showcased Te Voice Video Slots and Te GOONIES Video Slots on the CrystalCurve ULTRA cabinet too. And while Te Voice was unveiled at G2E 2016, the game has received a great deal of thought and attention before launch at this year’s event and looks a really special slots product.
Multi-level progressives on the CrystalCurve cabinet’s curved 42-inch, ultra-HD display included Golden Goddess, Fortune Gong, CASH CLIMB, Fort Knox, and Jurassic Park Trilogy. Te multi-level progressive games each gives players the choice of multiple base game themes and delivers the thrill of bank-wide celebrations. And as IGT continues to explore emerging market opportunities, its G2E demonstration of a new Dynasty ETG terminal featured a landscape-oriented, 27ins. display. Te new terminal supports IGT’s entire Random Number Generator (RNG) and live content library. It delivers 4K graphics, features a mobile device charging port, and complements IGT's existing ETG terminal offering.
IGT further revealed its expanded ETG content portfolio, which now includes (RNG) auto roulette, in addition to live Dynasty Blackjack, Dynasty Sic Bo, Dynasty Baccarat and roulette games. IGT's new Dynasty Baccarat game enables players to choose between three different games on every live hand that is dealt, and accommodates side bets.
Injecting innovation into the ETG category, IGT's Live Connect enables operators to feed any live roulette and baccarat game on a casino floor to an ETG terminal. Tis technology enables operators to entertain more players, across more platforms without increasing operating costs. IGT's Dynasty solutions are all compatible with IGT's PlaySpot mobile wagering solution. Trough the PlaySpot app, casino guests can place a variety of table and ETG wagers on their mobile phone from any allowed locations within a casino.
IGT also spotlit the PlaySpot App’s modular design and recently developed functionality that gives players the option to wager on live roulette and baccarat games, keno, sports and more from their mobile devices while at a casino. IGT's PlaySpot solution integrates with many of IGT's other casino solutions such as Cardless Connect and IGT Advantage systems, Live Connect, and IGT Dynasty.
