IGT's G2E hardware lineup of market-ready solutions will include core video cabinets such as the CrystalCurve™ with for-sale content, and the S3000® mechanical reel cabinet with Class II content, representing the Company's progress in completely renovating its full hardware lineup. Solutions such as the IGT Dynasty electronic table games (ETG) terminals, with the addition of new content and screen configurations, offer a clear demonstration of IGT's commitment to advancement in emerging market segments.
IGT's CrystalCurve cabinet has been central to the Company's Proven Performer program, which requires extensive product testing in casino environments throughout
Successful core video graduates of the Proven Performer program on the CrystalCurve cabinet featured at G2E include the Wild Fury Jackpots™ game, a vibrant, five-level jackpot game; the Ocean Magic Grand™ game, a new take on the player-favorite Ocean Magic™ theme that introduces a 2X2 Super Bubble feature.

Proven Performers on the CrystalDual® and CrystalSlant™ cabinets include Elephant King®, Dancing Reels Salsa™, and Golden GeckoTM games, joined by new IGT video core concepts such as the Fire Chariot™, Solar Disc™, and Hao Yun Fa™ games.
Focus on extending core stepper leadership will be revealed in the form of new Class II games for the S3000 cabinet, with single and multi-line titles such as the Double Topaz™, 2x3x4x5x Ducks in a Row™, and Wild Bill™ games. Designed for and initially launched in the Oklahoma market, IGT Class II games on the S3000 cabinet have expanded into several more states, while garnering tremendous early positive feedback from operators.
Class III S3000 cabinet evolution builds on the success of IGT's Red Hot Tamales® game, with the introduction of the Red Hot Cantina™ game, a spicy new three-game linked multi-level progressive series. The three-reel, 27-line Red Hot Tamales!, Red Hot Enchiladas!™, and Red Hot Chimichangas!™ games fully utilize the light and celebration capabilities of the S3000 cabinet, and feature a variety of anticipation-driving mechanics and fun cantina-inspired music.
IGT will also reveal a new version of the S3000 cabinet that is equipped with a spectrum meter and backed by content with iconic mechanics, pay tables, graphics, and sounds. Titles include the Sizzling 7® and Double Diamond Pinball games. IGT will also showcase new themes for the S3000 cabinet such as the nine-line Jackpot Jewels® and Rollin' in the Ca$h™ games, and will fortify its position as the leader in high-denomination games with titles such as the Sizzling Wild! ® and Triple Gold® games.
Complementing the Company's focus on advancing its core product line, IGT will introduce its core segmentation model at G2E. Featured in game toppers for easy reference, the segments group together games with similar features and play mechanics to remove operator guesswork from machine banking strategies.
As IGT continues to explore emerging market opportunities, its G2E demonstration of a new Dynasty ETG terminal will feature a landscape-oriented, 27-inch display. The new terminal supports the Company's entire Random Number Generator (RNG) and live content library.

IGT will reveal 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 Dynasty solutions are all compatible with IGT's award-winning PlaySpot™ mobile wagering solution. Through 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.

Continuing the large-format evolution and building on the success of the S3000 cabinet, the S3000 XL cabinet will feature popular mechanical reel themes such as IGT's Pinball®, Triple Gold, and Red Hot 21™ Double Diamond® games at G2E.
Video Poker meets large format with the introduction of the Video Poker XL cabinet. The upright hardware melds design elements from IGT's S3000 XL cabinet with the time-tested IGT video poker player panel. IGT will showcase the Wheel Poker® and 100 Play games on the Video Poker XL cabinet at G2E.
Bolstered by its significant leadership in the Video Poker space, IGT has expanded the offering within its player-favorite Game King game family with Game King® 8.3 with roulette, which adds video roulette games to its bar top and upright cabinet content bundles. IGT will also introduce a myriad of new multi-hand video poker game concepts such as the Haywire® Poker, Face Card Frenzy Poker™, Stack the Deck Poker™, and Double Big Wheel™ games.
