NOVOMATIC Celebrates Premium Exhibits in Peru

The Peru Gaming Show (PGS) 2023 from June 14-15 in Lima hosted a great industry gathering and a comprehensive performance show of all that’s hot and new for the Peruvian market. In prominent position, NOVOMATIC presented all the trending gaming technologies for the present and the future of the region’s industry.
At the main entrance, stand number #53 comprised a premium selection of all the latest NOVOMATIC product highlights: sophisticated cabinets with exciting Progressives, powerful ETGs as well as a most innovative casino management system, trending sports betting kiosks, and top-performing online gaming solutions.
Many of the new products that had premiered at ICE in London were exhibited at PGS in Lima. Among them the new BLACK EDITION II XL 3.32 with the NOVO LINE CASH CONNECTION Edition 4 Linked Progressive mix, including the stunning Candelas de los Muertos titles; the DIAMOND X 3.32 with NOVO LINE Interactive Edition X3, but also the local best-seller PANTHERA Curve 1.43 with the NOVO LINE Concurve Edition 6.
FAZI’s automated OPTIMUM ROULETTE multiplayer island with eight player positions presented a premium ETG solution that Peru’s venues definitely should not miss and the NOVOMATIC ActionBook Plus 2.27 demonstrated a modern high-quality sports betting kiosk solution for the huge potential of this market segment in Peru.
The innovative NOVOVISION casino management system definitely captured the show visitor’s attention and impressed the operators with its uniquely comprehensive range of functionalities and a distinctive USP: NOVOVISION introduces biometric technologies for the management of gaming operations, e.g. for player recognition and access.
Katty López, Sales Director of Crown Gaming Peru, said: “PGS this year was a very successful show for NOVOMATIC. We were really able to show that our varied 360° portfolio caters to all the requirements operators are going to have with outstanding products and solutions that take their business to another level.”
Max Bauer, NOVOMATIC Vice President LATAM & Caribbean, said: “Our aim this year at our PGS stand was to give our customers an overview of the NOVOMATIC products they could benefit from now as well as in the near future. Our show display was strongly focused on inspiring their visions for upcoming projects, thus seeking to broaden the industry’s perspective through novel solutions in the region such as our visionary casino management system.”

Mohegan Sun Named #1 “Best Casino for Slots” in USA TODAY 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards

Renowned integrated entertainment destination, Mohegan Sun, has been recognized across multiple categories in this year’s USA TODAY 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards, including being named #1 in the inaugural “Best Casino for Slots” category. Mohegan Sun was also ranked #2 for “Best Casino Hotel,” and “Best Casino Outside of Las Vegas,” and Momentum, Mohegan Sun’s rewards program, placed #2 for “Best Players Club”.
Nominees for all categories in the USA TODAY 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards are selected by a panel of subject matter experts including editors from USA TODAY, editors from 10Best.com, and contributors across Gannett properties, before being opened to public voting. Readers then cast their votes over a four-week period on 10Best.com, which attracts more than 5 million visitors per month.
“Over the past two years, Mohegan Sun has invested $15 million in the slot floor to ensure we’re offering the newest and most exciting games across both Casino of the Sky and Casino of the Earth. Being named Best Casino Slots by the USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards is a true testament to that commitment, as well as the exceptional service delivered by our gaming team. We’re equally proud to be recognized as runner-up in three additional major casino resort categories, an achievement that reflects the passion and excellence of our more than 5000 team members at Mohegan Sun,” said Jeff Hamilton, President & General Manager of Mohegan Sun.
This year has been an abundant award season for Mohegan Sun. The resort earned accolades for its dining, with Michael Jordan’s Steak House named “Best Casino Fine Dining” and TAO Asian Bistro & Lounge winning “Best Casino Casual Dining” in the Best of Connecticut 2025 awards, while Beauty & Essex was honored by Yankee Magazine as Connecticut’s “Best Immersive Dining Experience”. On the entertainment side, the 10,000-seat Mohegan Sun Arena was voted “Best Casino Performance Venue” in the Best of Connecticut 2025 awards and was spotlighted by Yankee Magazine as one of the “10 Best Things to Do in Connecticut This Summer,” further solidifying its reputation as one of the premier entertainment destinations in the region.
The “Best Casino for Slots” honor arrives during a year in which Mohegan Sun has awarded various major jackpots, including $1,374,307 won by a lucky guest on the popular IGT game, Jumanji Next Level. A $5 bet on a Monopoly Cash Wheel game by Aristocrat Gaming also netted $412,607 for a Connecticut native visiting Mohegan Sun in early August. Mohegan Sun recently rolled out the Sky Slot Tournament Zone located near The Cabaret Theatre, featuring games like Wheel of Fortune, Hex Breaker, and Cleopatra, all of which seamlessly switch between tournament mode and regular play.
