Aristocrat Gaming on Tuesday released a new three-reel stepper game – Buffalo Eclipse – that combines a stepper base game with a Hold & Spin feature and a metamorphic meter.

Buffalo Eclipse, a Class III game, appears on the Marquis Three-Reel cabinet with spinning reels and a digital top wheel. The game expands on the player-favorite Buffalo Sunset Wilds by adding multipliers up to 100x. Players also can spin the wheel for a chance at the Grand Jackpot, Eclipse Hold & Spin, or credit prizes

Buffalo Eclipse has three features. The Eclipse Metamorphic Meter allows players to fill the meter by landing Eclipse symbols on reels, and the background artwork changes as they get closer to completing the Eclipse. The Eclipse Feature delivers Hold & Spin gameplay with chances at landing a Sunset Wild symbol. In the Sunset Wild Feature, landing a Sunset Wild on any winning spin, including within the Eclipse feature, will trigger multiplier reveals for chances to multiply winnings up to 100x.

Buffalo Eclipse is configurable as a multi-denomination for main-floor placements and single-denomination for high-limit areas. It is a medium volatility lines game with an SSP Grand Jackpot that starts at $10,000, with additional jackpot startups available.
