International Game Technology announced Tuesday that it signed a contract with the Western Canada Lottery Corporation to provide 700 CrystalDual 27 video lottery terminals throughout the Saskatchewan province.
This marks the third time in five years that IGT has been awarded a significant VLT contract by WCLC following competitive procurements.
“IGT’s cabinets and content have proven to entertain and engage players throughout the Saskatchewan VLT network since 1993,” said Eric Karmark, WCLC Vice President, VLT Gaming & Operations. “By adding new IGT VLTs at our gaming venues, we’re continuing in our commitment to provide our players an enjoyable gaming experience by offering popular themes on a modern platform.”
As part of the agreement, IGT will launch The Price is Right VLT content for the first time in the Canadian market. Inspired by North America’s highest-rated daytime television game show, The Price is Right is among the top player-favorite brands in IGT’s game library. In addition, IGT will introduce a market-attuned content bundle so players can select which game they want to play from a variety of titles available.
“Extending IGT’s relationship with WCLC through the delivery of 700 additional VLT units reinforces the depth of our commitment to the Lottery’s continued growth, and the quality of IGT’s content and cabinet for the Canadian market,” said David Flinn, IGT Regional Vice President, Canada, South and Central America.
