Some of the key highlights within IGT's G2E booth will include:

Elevating Tiger and Dragon Success to New Heights
IGT's Tiger and Dragon Multi-Level Progressive ("MLP") slot game was a newcomer slot hit of the summer after landing three consecutive #1 finishes on Eilers-Krejcik's NEW Games Premium Leased and Wide-Area Progressive ("WAP") report. IGT is building on the success of the theme with the introduction of three new games: Tiger and Dragon Super Gong and Tiger and Dragon Super Bonus on the PeakCurve™49 cabinet, and Tiger and Dragon Super Arrow on the towering SkyRise cabinet. All three games include the engaging Tiger, Dragon, and Tiger and Dragon bonuses, and add "super" features by way of multipliers and "super arrows."

Delivering Jackpots that Make You Want to Dance
IGT will shine a bright spotlight on Whitney Houston I Wanna Dance with Somebody Slots. Housed on the stunning Peak65 cabinet, this game leverages strong game mechanics and brings them to life via a spectacular brand. This is IGT's second Whitney Houston-themed slot game following Whitney Houston Slots, which debuted in the #1 position on the Eilers-Krejcik's NEW WAP games category. The game features a range of iconic Whitney Houston images, concert footage, and music, including smash hits such as "I Wanna Dance with Somebody" and "Where Do Broken Hearts Go" along with six compelling progressive jackpot levels.

Introducing the New Frontier of Casino Management System ("CMS") design with IGT ADVANTAGE X
G2E will be the debut of IGT ADVANTAGE X, the latest iteration of the Company's award-winning CMS technology.

Advancing High-Limit Play with New Mechanical Reel and Core Video Slot Content
At G2E, IGT will bring back its dedicated zone for high-limit slots, a segment of the market where IGT retains strong leadership.
