International Game Technology PLC announced it successfully launched a compelling new, ten-game set for Alberta Gaming, Liquor & Cannabis (AGLC). AGLC and IGT started the official rollout of the new game set in April 2023 and will continue until more than 2600 of AGLC’s legacy Video Lottery Terminals (VLTs) are replaced with modern, high-performing IGT CrystalDual 27 VLTs featuring this new, in-demand game content.

“IGT’s studio team carefully curated AGLC’s localized game set to help the Lottery achieve peak player engagement and maximize revenues. The combination of leading hardware and player-favorite games such as Cash Eruption, Big City 5’s and Ocean Magic positions the Lottery for continued growth and pairs perfectly with the other IGT products and services that have powered AGLC’s operations for years,” said David Flinn, IGT SVP Sales, Canada, Central and South America.

This province-wide content deployment builds on IGT’s game performance success in Alberta. The Company’s first CrystalDual game set for AGLC was deployed across more than 2000 VLTs in the AGLC VLT network, and is the Lottery’s highest performing HD content. In addition to compelling content, IGT supplies the province with VLTs, commercial casino cabinets, the INTELLIGEN central system, and a variety of IGT PlayDigital games.
