NOVOMATIC Americas Makes Sales Strides at IGA 2025

NOVOMATIC Americas demonstrated strong commercial momentum at this year’s Indian Gaming Association (IGA) Trade Show, held March 31–April 3 in San Diego. With a focused, performance-driven presence, the team showcased an expanded portfolio of cabinets, games, and scalable merchandising that directly addressed the priorities of tribal operators nationwide. The result: a pipeline of new opportunities and a reaffirmed position as a key partner in the North American tribal gaming landscape.
V.I.P. X Series leads with floor presence and performance
At the core of the NOVOMATIC exhibit were the V.I.P. X Royal 1.85 and V.I.P. X Dream 3.43 cabinets – both drawing significant interest from operators due to their premium format and proven ability to elevate floor entertainment. The V.I.P. X Dream’s triple curved display and panoramic bonus presentation make it ideal for high-engagement content, while the V.I.P. X Royal’s portrait orientation provides maximum impact for vertical progressives and cascading bonus mechanics.
These cabinets were shown with key new titles which demonstrated their potential to extend time-on-device and support diverse bet levels. Attendee feedback reinforced the V.I.P. X cabinets as a high interest level product.
Building on NOVOMATIC’s performance-first product strategy, the new game lineup emphasized volatility choice, interactive features, and multi-level progressive appeal:
• Ultra Boost 3 Treasures Tiger Storm captured attention with its “pot-style” multi-feature bonus, expanding reels, and mystery multipliers – earning strong interest in installs in Oklahoma and the Upper Midwest.
• Piggy Prizes – Wand of Riches, already gaining traction with operators, combined vibrant visuals and 15-reel gameplay with a “Feed the Pig” mechanic and cash reveals. Interest was high, with tribal groups planning installations in Q2.
• The Apex Pro Gaming ELEMENT Series (Clover Twist and Clover Inferno) from our technology partner stood out with independent art styles and flexible gameplay – suited for various player segments and floor placements.
Also at IGA was NOVOMATIC Americas’ modular point-of-sale signage solution, which drew consistent praise for its cost-efficiency and customizable display capability. Tribal buyers appreciated the flexibility to scale signage according to floor size, configuration, and budget without sacrificing visual impact. This new approach contributed directly to increased interest in the Piggy Prizes title and supported bundled placement discussions.
Throughout the event, NOVOMATIC executives engaged in targeted discussions with leading tribal operators focused on floor optimization, premium zone development, and 2025 roadmap alignment. These conversations emphasized new positioning strategies for high-limit, pot style games, and ETG zones, with renewed interest in NOVO UNITY PRO terminals for communal electronic table game setups.
In addition, operators responded positively to NOVOMATIC’s enhanced merchandising programs, designed to drive stronger ROI from the first day of installation.
Jakob Rothwangl, Managing Director of NOVOMATIC Americas, said: “The success at IGA 2025 reflects the strength of our team and the relevance of our product strategy in the tribal gaming market. The response to our latest cabinet innovations and game offerings reinforces our position as a trusted, performance-driven partner in North America. It is an exciting time for NOVOMATIC Americas as we continue to grow.”

Esportes Gaming Brasil introduces LOTTU, its new digital betting platform focused on innovation and user experience

Esportes Gaming Brasil has just launched LOTTU, its new digital betting and entertainment platform. Modern, bold, and interactive, the brand was created with the purpose of delivering a faster, more personalized, and more efficient experience for bettors.
With this launch, the group now operates with the maximum limit of three brands authorized by the five-year federal license granted by the Secretariat of Prizes and Betting of the Ministry of Finance (SPA/MF), as established by Law 14.790/2023. In addition to LOTTU, the portfolio includes Esportes da Sorte and OnaBet.
“LOTTU reflects everything we’ve learned in recent years, but with a real leap in performance and usability. It is a platform built from the ground up, with a focus on speed, real-time promotions, and navigation tailored to different bettor profiles,” says Darwin Henrique da Silva Filho, CEO of Esportes Gaming Brasil Group.
With proprietary architecture and a high degree of customization, LOTTU offers features that allow greater flexibility for promotions, dynamic layouts, and a smoother user journey. The applied technology expands interaction and engagement possibilities, with an emphasis on responsiveness and operational intelligence.
“The arrival of LOTTU represents more than just a portfolio expansion. It materializes a brand that combines technology, aesthetics, and dynamism to deliver a truly differentiated experience. From concept to design, every detail was crafted to connect with the modern bettor, who values agility, trust, and innovation,” highlights Marcela Campos, Vice President of Esportes Gaming Brasil.
The system also incorporates monitoring tools that proactively identify signs of risky behavior—redirecting users to specialized support channels and reinforcing the group’s commitment to responsible gaming practices.
More than expanding its portfolio, the launch of LOTTU consolidates Esportes Gaming Brasil as one of the leading groups in the sector, with a strong institutional presence in Brazil’s sports and cultural scene—through initiatives such as sponsorships of clubs like Corinthians, Ceará, Ferroviária, and Náutico, and support for regional events such as Carnival, São João, and the Parintins Festival.

NYC Mayoral Front-runner Zohran Mamdani Says He Won’t Oppose Casino Development

As a state lawmaker, Zohran Mamdani generally opposed plans to open full-scale casinos in New York City. In June, when he walked past a billboard showing betting markets for the city mayor’s race, he even quipped that “gambling is haram,” an Arabic word meaning forbidden.
But on Wednesday, Mr. Mamdani said that he did not intend to use his newfound political clout as the Democratic mayoral nominee and the race’s front-runner to try to stop the arrival of casinos that are widely considered a fait accompli.
Speaking alongside the leader of a union pushing the gambling expansion, Mr. Mamdani told reporters that while he still had doubts about the casinos backed by corporate giants, he respected the views of state voters who had approved the downstate gambling expansion more than a decade ago.
