LAS VEGAS, Sept. 28, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Scientific Games Corporation (NASDAQ: SGMS) ("Scientific Games" or the "Company") will showcase its exclusive partnership with Playboy in booth #1126 at the 2015 Global Gaming Expo (G2E) at the Las Vegas Sands Expo & Convention Center, Sept. 29-Oct. 1.
The Company will debut two new Playboy™ products: Playboy Don't Stop the Party!, a progressive video slot featuring Playboy Playmates™ and Pitbull on the ALPHA 2 Pro Theater cabinet with a Pro Sound Chair, and Tablemaster Fusion – Playboy Bonus Blackjack, the first-ever licensed brand ETS product.
"Scientific Games has the exclusive rights to Playboy-themed wagering games for use on casino premises worldwide," said Matthew Nordby, President of Global Licensing at Playboy Enterprises, Inc. "Over the past 15 years, Scientific Games' brands have created more than 50 Playboy-themed gaming machines, including Playboy Hot Zone, Playboy Platinum, and Playboy Down Under."
This year, Scientific Games introduces Playboy Don't Stop the Party!, a progressive video slot featuring Playboy Playmates and global music superstar Pitbull. The game will entertain players with three hit songs from Pitbull, popular play mechanics, and a five-level progressive jackpot, including a potentially life-changing wide-area progressive award on the Bally Cash Connection link that is sure to heat up casino floors.
Also being shown for the first time at G2E is Tablemaster Fusion – Playboy Bonus Blackjack. This one-of-a-kind blackjack game features the first-ever licensed brand ETS product that incorporates a community "slot-like" bonus round and highlights the beauty of four Playboy Playmate dealers. The Tablemaster Fusion line uses a high-definition, 75-inch 4K display for the attractive virtual dealers as well as 22-inch widescreen player terminals with touchscreen betting, enhanced graphics, and multiple side bets.
Additionally, visitors to G2E can also see other Playboy-themed games in the Scientific Games booth, including Playboy Midnight Diamonds, Playboy Sunset Sapphires, and Playboy Hot Shot.
