The release celebrates the 10th anniversary of the original Lightning Link slot game.

Players and casino staff marked the occasion with a ceremonial ribbon-cutting and hot seat promotion for players to win a chance at $100,000.

Lightning 10 Year Storm is a new game that builds on the popularity of Lightning Link, with new titles, artwork, and gameplay. The game appears exclusively on the Baron Portrait cabinet and launches with four exciting base games: Shang Jin Warrior, Master Magician, Wild Cougar, and Golden Archers.
The new games preserve elements of the original while introducing an enhanced base‑game experience and new bonus features, including the Lightning Free Feature. New players will experience the game’s rich graphics and modern mechanics.
Lightning 10 Year Storm also features bonuses such as the Hold & Spin Feature, the new Lightning Free Feature and the free games feature.
