The hardware is
characterized by first-of-its-kind lighting elements stretching from the height of the topper to below the button deck, which interact with in-game features across a dynamic color spectrum. This advanced lighting system delivers real-time visual feedback that reacts to every spin, win, and bonus round. Konami marks the debut of this new cabinet line with Solstice 49C™ - a core for-sale machine featuring float-mounted, 49-inch C-curve display in 4K Ultra High- definition (UHD).
“Solstice is industry’s latest in enhanced graphics, game power, and total attraction on the casino floor,” said Gerard Crosby, senior vice president & chief games product officer at Konami Gaming. “The machine’s total innovation and quality, combined with standout titles from BOMBERMAN to All Aboard Diamond, firmly establish Solstice as a must-have for casino operators worldwide.” Solstice showcase game series All Aboard Diamond is the first-ever brand extension on Konami’s world-famous All Aboard™ slot games, which ranked in Eilers & Krejcik’s list of “Top 25 Grossing Parent Games - Premium Leased & WAP” every month for more than four years.
