There are more slot machines operating in casinos in the United States and Canada today than there were at the beginning of the year.
Newport Beach, California-based Eilers & Krejcik, in a quarterly slot and table count published Monday, said there are 1,079,400 games and electronic devices operating in North American casinos, a 0.1 percent increase from the beginning of 2026, and 0.9 percent more than there were a year earlier.
“Expansionary activity, both new development and same-store, continues to offset removals,” the new report said.
The analysis concluded there would be additional expansion in the next three years with new installations in Illinois, Indiana, Mississippi, Nebraska, New Hampshire, Virginia and Nevada, with new casino development outpacing modest removals in saturated markets.
