AGS partnered with Yaamava’ Resort & Casino at San Manuel in Southern California and Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas on July 22 to debut its newest slot family, Mariachi Fortunes Trio. A release said it was a “first-of-its-kind, bi-state world premiere.

“This premiere is a true celebration of innovation and partnership,” AGS Senior Vice President and General Manager, Slots, Mark DeDeaux said in a statement. “Mariachi Fortunes Trio builds on the success of Piñata Pays, one of AGS’ best-performing games of all time and takes it even further with a more immersive theme, richer features, and broader bonus combinations. The dual themes of the game made Yaamava’ and Palms the perfect partners to launch this experience. With both properties under San Manuel’s leadership and a shared focus on delivering bold, unforgettable player experiences, this two-state debut brings the full story of the game to life in a way only they could.”

Each property hosted a launch celebrations inspired by one of the game’s two themes. Yaamava’ Resort & Casino showcased Fiesta de los Vivos – “the festival of the living” – in a daytime event, while Palms Casino Resort brought Fiesta de las Calacas – “the festival of the skeletons” – to life with a nighttime celebration. The themes are live at both properties.

Casino floors at each property were transformed into Mexico-style plazas with themed slot banks, folklorico dancers, live mariachi bands, decorated street carts, and larger-than-life visuals. Club Serrano members at  Yaamava’ Resort & Casino and Palms Casino Resort received themed giveaways and are among the first to experience Mariachi Fortunes Trio.

“From California to Las Vegas, Club Serrano members are the very first to dive into the electrifying world of Mariachi Fortunes Trio, the thrilling new slot franchise from our incredible partners at AGS,” said Yuhaaviatam of San Manuel Nation Chief Gaming Officer Peter Arceo. “This groundbreaking dual-state world premiere is more than just a launch — it’s a fiesta of immersive gameplay, vibrant visuals, and nonstop excitement. Mariachi Fortunes Trio cranks up the energy on our gaming floors at Yaamava’ Resort & Casino and Palms Casino Resort, delivering unforgettable moments and heart-pounding fun our guests will love.”

Mariachi Fortunes Trio will be available exclusively at Yaamava’ and Palms for a limited time before expanding to casino floors across North America.
