Plaza Hotel & Casino to debut Bluberi’s Smokin’ Train slot on April 22
Plaza Hotel & Casino in downtown Las Vegas says it will be the first Las Vegas property to debut Bluberi’s new Smokin’ Train video slot game, with the launch set for April 22.
“We are committed to bringing to the Plaza’s casino floor the latest and greatest games with Bluberi’s Smokin’ Train being our newest addition,” said Sue Ascanio, general manager of the Plaza Hotel & Casino. “Relatively new to the Las Vegas market, Bluberi is offering exciting video slot options that we think will have a loyal following very quickly. So, we are excited to partner with them as they expand their installations in Vegas. Based on the feedback we have so far, we are confident that Smokin’ Train will be highly popular with players at the Plaza.”
Smokin’ Train is a five-reel, 50-line video slot with multiple denominations and a top award of a progressive $10,000, according to the company. The title is themed around the Wild West Gold Rush and includes a Triple Pot Filler mechanic featuring mystery door reveals, combining pots, and a Super Nugget feature that triggers all pots.
In the Hold & Spin bonus, players collect enhancements from train cars to boost, collect, or add cash balls. The Plaza’s announcement comes as suppliers continue to compete for floor space and visibility in the Las Vegas market, where new-game debuts can serve as a bellwether for broader regional rollouts across North America.
