NOVOMATIC celebrates a successful showcase at G2E Asia 2025

NOVOMATIC enjoyed a highly successful presence at this year’s G2E Asia, which was held from May 7–9 at The Venetian Macao. The company impressed visitors with a well-curated portfolio of advanced gaming solutions that are specifically tailored to the Asian market – drawing a strong attendance, excellent customer engagement, and positive feedback across the board.
Strong customer interest in next-generation product highlights
This year’s showcase focused on delivering both innovation and regional relevance, with a lineup designed to elevate the player experience and boost operator performance. One of the standout attractions was the DIAMOND X™ 1.55J QUATTRO, which returned with significant upgrades in both design and performance. The cabinet was presented with the current Linked Progressive highlights, such as XTENSION LINK™ Volume 3 and Volume 4, while the all-new XTENSION LINK™ Evolution, proved especially popular for its eye-catching presence and engaging game mechanics. The DIAMOND X™ 2.32/3.32 multi-screen version, equipped with the GAMINATOR™ X5, showcased a versatile selection of entertaining titles that are tailored for the region.
Equally well-received was the BLACK EDITION II series: The BLACK EDITION II XL 2.32/3.32 captivated operators with the highly popular IMPERA LINK™ Series 2, while the BLACK EDITION II 1.49J brought together the powerful Impera PROLINK™ and the latest addition to the game portfolio, RISING TREASURES™. Proven performers like the MASTER SL™ 2.32/3.32, which also featured GAMINATOR™ X5, rounded out the offering and demonstrated NOVOMATIC’s strength in both innovation and reliability.
Casino solutions driving future growth
Further highlights included the NOVO UNITY™ PRO, NOVOMATIC’s advanced electronic table game (ETG) platform that enables players to join up to three live games simultaneously – such as Sic Bo, Baccarat, or Roulette – on one station. Highly customizable in its setup, the system allows operators to adapt game configurations, layouts, and betting options to local preferences and regulatory requirements. Its interactivity and flexibility were praised by operators as key advantages in engaging today’s players.
The NOVOVISION™ Casino Management System also made a strong impression with its comprehensive suite of functionalities: biometric access, single-wallet capabilities, advanced player loyalty features, and much more – all of which are aimed at delivering next-level efficiency and security in casino operations.
Kenan Bajram, Deputy Director Global Sales at NOVOMATIC AG, reflected on the successful event: “G2E Asia 2025 was once again an outstanding opportunity to engage with partners from across the region and present the full scope of our technology portfolio. Asia’s land-based gaming market is as diverse as it is dynamic – each country has its own regulatory framework, technical standards, and player preferences. Our success at this year’s show confirms that NOVOMATIC is well-positioned to meet these varied demands with tailored solutions that combine innovation, reliability, and full regulatory compliance. The positive feedback we received – especially for our DIAMOND X™ and BLACK EDITION II series, as well as for the NOVO UNITY™ PRO ETG solution – reinforces our commitment to supporting our customers in key markets such as Malaysia, the Philippines, and beyond.”

New Resort & Casino Selects IvedaAI for Intelligent Video Surveillance Ahead of Grand Opening

Iveda, a global leader in AI-driven video surveillance and smart-city technologies, announced that Subic Sun Development Inc. has chosen the IvedaAI platform as the video surveillance solution for the soon-to-open Subic Sun Resort, Convention & Casino. IvedaAI was selected early in the build-out to inform camera placement and ensure frictionless integration with future-ready, AI-powered analytics. Located on the former U.S. naval base in the Subic Bay Freeport Zone—a special economic hub that hosts thousands of international and local businesses—the resort will feature 500 guest rooms, a state-of-the-art convention center, a luxury casino and two Accor-brand hotels, Ibis Styles and Mercure, scheduled to open in December 2025.
The decision comes as global resort operators sharpen their focus on safety, service and operational efficiency. The global resort market generated $347 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach nearly $945 billion by 2030, an 18.5% CAGR. IvedaAI’s AI-enabled video analytics will help property staff lower security costs, respond to incidents faster and unlock data-driven insights that boost both guest satisfaction and bottom-line performance.
“Iveda being selected as a premier security and surveillance provider before the first Subic Sun Resort guest ever checks in is a powerful endorsement of our commitment to providing state-of- the-art monitoring technology. By designing camera layouts around IvedaAI’s real-time analytics, Subic Sun can optimize coverage, reduce blind spots, and deliver safer, smoother guest experiences—without a costly equipment overhaul. We expect more ground-up projects to follow this blueprint,” said David Ly, CEO and Founder of Iveda.
Iveda Philippines—Iveda’s joint venture focused on nationwide smart-city deployment—secured the Subic Sun contract and will oversee the on-site rollout. The win represents the team’s first major hospitality project and advances its plan to generate US $3 million in smart-city revenue by FY 2026, building on the broader initiative it announced last year.
