Light & Wonder on Monday announced the world debut of Willy Wonka: Sweet Selection, the latest addition to its Willy Wonka-themed slot franchise. The game is live at Pechanga Resort Casino in Temecula, California, on the Cosmic Sky cabinet.
Building on more than a decade of Willy Wonka-themed slot entertainment, Willy Wonka: Sweet Selection marks the 12th Willy Wonka-themed game launched by Light & Wonder since acquiring the license in 2012. The title introduces players to an immersive Wonka-inspired theme park experience featuring player-selectable bonus features, vibrant audiovisual elements and engaging Hold & Spin-style gameplay.
“Willy Wonka has remained one of the most recognizable branded franchises on casino floors for more than a decade, and the Sweet Selection game continues to evolve that experience in new ways,” Light & Wonder Senior Vice President of Product Management & Commercial Strategy Ryan Scott said in a statement. “From the player-selectable feature mechanics to the immersive presentation on the Cosmic Sky cabinet, this game delivers a fresh take on a brand players know and enjoy.”
The game’s core feature centers around the Golden Ticket mechanic, allowing players to choose their preferred bonus experience, including the Fizzy Lifting drink, Blueberry Blast, and Golden Goose feature sets. Each feature delivers distinct gameplay mechanics, visual effects, and prize opportunities inspired by memorable moments from the Willy Wonka universe.
The title debuted on Light & Wonder’s Cosmic Sky cabinet, featuring dual curved Ultra HD displays, integrated lighting, and premium presentation designed to support immersive branded entertainment experiences.
“We love giving our guests the exclusivity of being the first in the world to play incredible new games,” said Pechanga Resort Casino Vice President of Slot Operations Alex Rodriguez. “With its state-of-the-art, high-definition displays, inventive bonus rounds and more, we think guests are going to really enjoy Willy Wonka: Sweet Selection.” The Willy Wonka brand has long resonated with players. We’re excited to see how our guests delight in this new flavor.”
