International Game Technology PLC has announced that it has launched its first wide-area progressive (WAP) compatible game in Colombia with the all-new Condor Link. Players across the country now have the opportunity to spin for large-scale WAP jackpots at nine properties operated by Winner Group Cirsa, one of Colombia’s largest gaming operators.

Delivering a highly engaging entertainment experience to the gaming floor, IGT’s Condor Link game features four jackpot levels and a reset value of 75,000,000 Colombian Pesos (COP). Condor Link features two compelling base games, Edición Guerrero and Edición Guerrera, and is available on IGT’s versatile PeakSlant32 cabinet, featuring three high-definition displays and a large dynamic player panel.

“Deploying our first WAP-compatible game in Colombia reflects IGT’s commitment to differentiating our roadmap for Latin America and providing our customers with new market-attuned themes and jackpot solutions that can help operators diversify their gaming floors. We are excited to partner with Winner Group Cirsa to introduce Condor Link and bring the excitement of IGT’s compelling jackpot content to players throughout the country,” said David Flinn, IGT SVP Sales, Canada, EMEA, and LATAM.

IGT’s Condor Link is a 50-payline, 50-credit cost-to-cover game featuring vibrant warrior-inspired graphics and integrates popular gameplay features and mechanics like free games, stacked wilds, and an entertaining hold and spin bonus. Condor Link will be available at nine Winner Group Cirsa properties in cities across Colombia, including Armenia, Barranquilla, Bogotá, Cali, and Medellín, and joins IGT’s portfolio of high-performing multi-level progressive themes like the award-winning Prosperity Link, Mystery of the Lamp, and Magic Treasures games.

International Game Technology PLC announced that IGT PlayDigital recently released the award-winning Mystery of the Lamp game in several U.S. online gaming jurisdictions – New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and West Virginia. IGT’s Mystery of the Lamp game rose to super-star status by achieving high performance in land-based casinos worldwide and winning “Top Performing NEW Premium Game” at the lauded 2024 EKG Slot Awards Show.

IGT PlayDigital’s version of the player-favorite game retains many of the same attributes that continue to propel the success of the land-based game, including its three collection-pot mechanics, vibrant art package, and attractive bonuses.

“Adding Mystery of the Lamp to IGT PlayDigital’s content library for the U.S. enables our customers to offer players another highly successful IGT land-based game across platforms. Much like we did with IGT’s Prosperity Link’s arrival in the online space, we anticipate players and operators will quickly gravitate to Mystery of the Lamp given its strong following around the world and the quality of the gameplay experience,” said Gil Rotem, President of IGT PlayDigital.

IGT PlayDigital introduced Mystery of the Lamp Treasure Oasis, one of five IGT Mystery of the Lamp themes. The game has a 5×3 reel configuration, features four compelling jackpots and includes Hold & Win-style bonus play.
