International Game Technology has announced that it has signed a contract with the Western Canada Lottery Corporation (WCLC) to provide 720 lottery terminals to Saskatchewan.
WCLC is a non-profit organization that operates lottery and gaming-related activities for the Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba governments. The Yukon Territory, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut are associate members.
IGT is providing CrystalDual 27 video-lottery terminals. This is the fourth time in seven years that IGT has been awarded a significant VLT contract by WCLC.
“WCLC is committed to providing our VLT players with content and hardware that deliver the best possible player experiences in Saskatchewan,” said Eric Karmark, WCLC vice president, VLT Gaming & Operations. “The additional 720 VLT units and exciting new games from IGT speak volumes to that promise.”
The VLTs have two displays featuring high-definition graphics, ergonomic design, and enhanced player interface and IGT is providing its CX game set of VLT content in the Saskatchewan deal. That features some of their top-performing games, such as 7’s Wild Gold, Big City 5’s, The Wild Life, and Thunder Stampede, and two new VLT titles, Cash Eruption Temple of Fire and Greenback Attack.
“The award and delivery of 720 additional VLT units reinforces the depth of IGT’s commitment to WCLC’s continued growth and the quality of IGT’s content and cabinets for the Canadian market,” said David Flinn, IGT senior vice president, Canada, South and Central America. “IGT’s CrystalDual 27 continues to prove its versatility and relevance in gaming markets around the world as the premium dual-screen VLT cabinet.”
IGT has a global presence in gaming and has relationships with governments and regulators in more than 100 jurisdictions.
