Merkur Gaming is going to participate in this year’s Peru Gaming Show, taking place from June 18 to 19 at the Centro de Convenciones Jockey Plaza in Lima. Representatives from the company’s German headquarters and its local subsidiary, Merkur Gaming Peru, will be on site to present the latest product innovations and engage with customers and visitors alike.

“We are bringing an exciting portfolio and are highly motivated to impress our Latin American customers and all attendees at the Peru Gaming Show with our diverse and dynamic offering,” said Ronald Díaz, General Manager of Merkur Gaming Peru.

The main attraction at the Merkur Gaming stand will be the linked progressive jackpot system Clash Link. This system stands out for its wealth of unique jackpot mechanics, which keep the excitement level consistently high.

Features like unlimited Free Games, the engaging Bonus Feature, and the Jackpot Reel create a high-frequency, action-packed experience designed to deliver a true adrenaline rush on the multigamer. The already popular system in Latin America will be showcased on the Mod Ex J55 cabinet, whose curved UHD monitor amplifies the immersive gaming experience and brings the Clash Link world vividly to life.

Also drawing strong attention will be Link Overdrive, the newest addition to Merkur’s jackpot portfolio. This Linked Progressive delights players with its thrilling jackpot feature, driven by the ever-popular Hold ‘n Spin mechanic, which significantly enhances gameplay excitement. Another key attraction for Latin American visitors will be the M-Prime multigame package, praised for its intuitive menu layout, advanced player interface, and wide-ranging game selection. In addition to these highlights, Merkur Gaming will once again showcase its fan-favorite Five Respin feature – a proven crowd-pleaser that guarantees high action until the very last spin. All featured content will be presented on the acclaimed Zonic cabinet, which continues to achieve great success internationally and is sure to catch the eye of visitors in Lima.

Following their joint appearances at G2E 2024 in Las Vegas and the debut edition of ICE in Barcelona, the Merkur Group and its strategic partner Spintec will now also be co-exhibiting at the Peru Gaming Show. The collaboration with the Slovenian ETG specialist has evolved into a strong alliance, combining Merkur’s regional strength with Spintec’s expertise in electronic table games and cutting-edge technology. Most recently, Spintec was recognized by Eilers & Krejcik – a boutique research and consulting firm specializing in the global gaming industry – as the top-performing ETG supplier in South America. At the Peru Gaming Show, Spintec will showcase its compact roulette solution with eight player stations.

“Beyond our product showcase, our main focus during the two days of the event will be on engaging directly with customers and visitors. These in-depth conversations are invaluable for gaining deeper insight into the market and truly understanding player needs and preferences. Moreover, the Peru Gaming Show provides an ideal platform to build new connections and strengthen existing business relationships. We are very much looking forward to the show,” Díaz said.
