IGT modernises gaming in Minnesota

IGT is modernising casino entertainment in the US state of Minnesota with the launch of the S3000 cabinet at Grand Casino Mille Lacs in Onamia.

IGT recently became the first gaming supplier approved to distribute video slot games on spinning reel cabinets in Minnesota, paving the way for Grand Casino Mille Lacs to be the first gaming venue in the state to offer patrons this in-demand form of gaming.

The award-winning IGT S3000 gaming machines at Grand Casino Mille Lacs deliver a new-to-the-state gaming experience, complete with spinning reels, flashy lights, iconic slot machine sounds and big win celebrations.

Initial IGT games offered on the S3000 cabinets in Minnesota include some of the gaming industry’s most popular titles such as Double Gold, Pink Diamond, Triple Gold Bars and Triple Jackpot Jewels.

“Introducing IGT games on the S3000 cabinet instantly elevated the excitement and diversified the entertainment that we can offer Grand Casino Mille Lacs guests,” said Robbie Sawyer, Grand Casino Mille Lacs vice president of gaming.

“Grand Casino Mille Lacs is proud to be the first casino in Minnesota to showcase IGT’s spinning games and is delighted to observe our guests enjoying the quintessential gaming experiences that they deliver. 

“By deploying IGT’s S3000 cabinets, Grand Casino Mille Lacs is the first casino operator in Minnesota to benefit from the player appeal of the industry’s most iconic spinning reel cabinet and the strength of IGT’s vast spinning reel content library,” said Nick Khin, IGT’s COO, gaming.

“IGT’s recent regulatory approval to deploy mechanical reel games in Minnesota presents a meaningful growth opportunity for the company and our casino customers throughout the state.”
