The biggest gaming show proves major success for NOVOMATIC
In retrospect, the general consensus was unanimous: The three days of hustling and bustling business at ICE London 2023 were over far too quickly. And what a pity it was, too, that the new magnificent NOVOMATIC stand had to be dismantled. What it eventually was, is the biggest ICE ever in every aspect: 51,466 square meters of floor space, visitor numbers estimated to exceed 40,000 – and for NOVOMATIC, the most successful gaming show ever.
Visitors were stunned by the entirely new and sophisticated stand design at the show’s biggest booth, introducing a new black elegance as well as granting excellent visibility to the various dedicated NOVOMATIC floor areas for the diverse industry segments and markets. Land-based casino and AWP products & systems, casino management systems including biometric technologies for modern access solutions and secure cash handling solutions as well as sports betting and iGaming solutions and much more.
At the centre of the all-new stand, NOVOMATIC’s slogan for this year’s ICE “BLACK IS BACK” heralded the international launch of the brand new BLACK EDITION II cabinet series. Coined as the successor of the hugely popular “Black Edition”, this cabinet series introduces extended flexibility with three new cabinet versions: the smaller BLACK EDITION II 3.27, the extra-large BLACK EDITION II XL 3.32 and the single-screen BLACK EDITION II 1.49J. All three present exciting and sophisticated cabinet design with perfectly angled screens and a razor-sharp game presentation against the backdrop of a Black Metro finish and a contrasting LED ambient lighting concept. Right at the centre of the casino area, the BLACK EDITION II 1.49J showed another highlight of this year’s ICE display: the Candelas de los Muertos™ games with Señorita Suerte and Señor Muerte accompanied by a dedicated photo booth and Señorita and Señor game characters in authentic Mexican Dia de los Muertos style. The two colourful titles are available as single games as well as being part of the new Linked Progressive mix NOVO LINE CASH CONNECTION™ Edition 4 – plus, they were a key highlight of Greentube’s show display for the iGaming segment.
Another new kid on the block at ICE was the massive new video slot slant top MASTER SL™ in versions 2.32 and 3.32, presenting a new choice for operators to introduce more variety in their slot floor layout. In London, it launched with the NOVO LINE™ Interactive Editions X3 and X4 as well as NOVO LINE CASH CONNECTION™ Editions 3 and 4, the latter of which includes the title CASH CONNECTION Charming Lady’s BOOM™. On day 1 of the show, this highly popular game received a coveted accolade at the European Casino Awards as the proud winner of the “Best Slot Game” category.
The DIAMOND X™ 1.55J was on display with the exclusive XTENSION LINK™ Volume 1 in a banked set-up as well as in the new island set-up, complete with spacers and circular LED signage, while the multi-screen version DIAMOND X™ 2.32 presented the brand new GOLDEN LINK Progressive mixes. Further new mixes comprised a MONEY PARTY™ mix, introducing these highly popular US games to the international markets, an ULTRA BOOST LINK™ multi-game, Impera-Line HD™ Edition 9 as well as Series 2 of the top-selling IMPERA LINK™, which was presented in the BLACK EDITION II 2.32 cabinet.
Further news were also staged in the dedicated ETG area with the new slant tops LOTUS SL™ 1.27 and EXECUTIVE SL™ 1.27 as well as the new high-speed Multi-Roulette wheel for the Novo Unity™ platform.
Another first place at the European Casino Awards went to the NOVOVISION™ casino management system in the category “Best CMS/Software Product”. This powerful system was presented right at the heart of the NOVOMATIC stand, demonstrating its extensive toolset for efficient casino management. The functionalities include a wide range of possibilities for automation, detailed analysis and sophisticated performance optimisation, taking into account all responsibilities and requirements of modern casino operations in terms of player protection, responsible gaming and reporting obligations as well as offering modern biometric access solutions and innovative player tracking for live gaming tables.
Ryszard Presch, Member of the Executive Board of NOVOMATIC AG, says: “I am delighted with the resonance at the show. It proves that our development strategy in terms of hardware as well as content and solutions for the international markets was spot on. ICE London 2023 was a fantastic start into the year.”
Johannes Gratzl, Member of the Executive Board of NOVOMATIC AG, comments: “A major show like ICE is always a huge collaborative accomplishment, and we are fully aware that this tremendous success in London is the result of the combined team effort of countless departments and staff. We would really like to say to them all: thank you and very well done.”
Thomas Schmalzer, VP Global Sales and VP Product Management NOVOMATIC AG, adds: “This year’s ICE was just a tremendously successful show. It was already clear at the beginning of day 1 that the number of visitors to our stand far exceeded that of previous years. Customer feedback on our show portfolio was excellent – and the question that we heard most, was: ‘When can we have it?’”

Embrace the Mayhem with BGaming’s Joker vs Joker

Rapidly expanding content provider pits two Jokers against one another in the all-new Joker vs Joker slot
Popular iGaming content provider BGaming invites players to enter a multiverse of mayhem in the Joker vs Joker slot. This daring new title puts a spin on the classic Joker theme by leaning into the popular multiverse trend and pitting two Jokers against one another.
Joker vs Joker combines a nostalgic 1950s comic book aesthetic with modern and innovative slot mechanics to create a unique gaming experience. The slot is a prime example of BGaming’s publishing efforts — the result of collaboration with the Golden Goat Gaming studio, bringing a completely original creative vision to life.
In the game, two different Jokers battle it out for supremacy on the reels thanks to the innovative Versus feature. Players are tasked with spinning the reels and landing wins of up to 7,500x their stake. Of course, the Jokers have several tricks up their sleeves to help players along the way, awarding mystery multipliers as a result of their fights. The game comes loaded with an exciting Free Spins feature where VS symbols appear every spin, as well as the increased possibility of triggering the Multiplier Wild showdowns with the No Joke Spin mode.
Joker vs Joker serves up a robust math model, featuring medium-volatility gameplay and the strong RTP of 95.50%. Players can also skip the queue and trigger the Free Spins bonus by using the game’s Buy Bonus feature.
Nikita Zavadsky, Custom Games Product Owner at BGaming, said: “Multiversal action is everywhere you look these days, and we decided to get the online slot world in on the action.
Joker vs Joker has allowed our team to express ourselves creatively and put a new spin on the iconic Joker theme. We are also very proud of the game’s retro visuals and design, and are delighted to have worked alongside Golden Goat Gaming in developing the slot.”
