Aristocrat Gaming and Skill Master Pro on Monday announced an exclusive agreement to bring games and technology to Georgia’s coin-operated amusement machine (COAM) market for the first time.

The Georgia Lottery Commission oversees compliance and enforcement of Class A and Class B coin-operated amusement machines in the state.

“Our distribution partnership with Skill Master Pro to enter the Georgia market demonstrates the company’s ongoing commitment to growth in emerging segments and our investment in producing the best products for our players,” said Aristocrat Gaming Senior Vice President of Sales Kurt Gissane in a statement. “Skill Master Pro’s unparalleled market knowledge and quality experience align with the superior products customers expect from us.”

Six new titles — Bao Zhu Zhao Fu, Big Fu Cash Bats, Buffalo Gold, Midnight Train, Mighty Cash, and Sun & Moon Cash Eclipse — were developed by Aristocrat Gaming’s Atlanta-based studios. The games will be available on the new MidKnight XTM cabinet, modeled after the HelixTM cabinet.

“After three decades of being at the forefront of developing the COAM market into the burgeoning industry it is today, I strongly believe Aristocrat Gaming and Skill Master Pro will elevate the Georgia COAM industry,” said Skill Master Pro CEO Adam Foust.
