NOVOMATIC celebrates great Balkans industry gathering at BFG
The Belgrade Future Gaming (BFG) 2023 show in Belgrade fulfilled all expectations: As the major industry gathering of the Balkans region, BFG proved another excellent trade show for NOVOMATIC and the local ETG specialist FAZI, on a joint stand that was boasting with exciting product news and industry solutions.
From May 30-31, the Belgrade Fair turned into the epicentre of the Balkans gaming industry, as this year’s BFG assembled the regional industry stakeholders for a perfomance show of gaming news and highlights.
At the centre of the attention on NOVOMATIC’s joint stand with FAZI stood all the recent highlights for 2023! The local matador Black Edition presented the next generation of top performers with the BLACK EDITION II cabinet series: The BLACK EDITION II 3.27 is the true successor of the original blockbuster with a setup of three characteristically angled 27” screens, whereas the BLACK EDITION II XL 3.32 is an impressive XL version with three 32” screens and the BLACK EDITION II 1.49J exemplifies a modern approach, featuring a 49” J-curve monitor for the constantly growing range of NOVOMATIC upright games and Progressive titles. Operators were clearly impressed by this new cabinet line, featuring a variety of the latest gaming highlights such as NOVO LINE™ Edition X4, Impera-Line HD™ Edition 9, IMPERA LINK™ Series 2 and the linked progressive multi-game CASH CONNECTION Edition 4.
The DIAMOND X™ was on display in the versions in the versions 3.32 featuring Superia CASH CONNECTION™ Volume 2 and the gripping 1.55J featuring the exclusive XTENSION LINK™ Volume 1. Especially this elegant cabinet with its J-curve screen and in combination with the new circular signage package for the XTENSION LINK™ was a favourite with show visitors. This top-performing set-up already yields clear above-floor-average and in many cases top-floor performance in numerous casinos across different markets. At the recent Global Gaming Awards 2023 in London, the DIAMOND X™ won the category “Product Launch of the Year” – another true testament to the fact that this cabinet has quickly become a favourite with international operators and their guests alike.
Last but not least, visitors in Belgrade also discovered the latest addition to the NOVOMATIC slot slant top segment: The MASTER SL™ 3.32 was on display with the Superia GOLDEN LINK™ Volume 1 as well as NOVO LINE™ GOLDEN LINK™ Edition 1 linked multi-games.
In the dedicated FAZI area of the stand, the local ETG specialist showcased premium ETG solutions such as the impressive TITAN ROULETTE in a show set-up featuring four player stations, a fully automated Roulette wheel and an integrated display solution.
To round off a perfect trade show display, catering and hospitality services at the NOVOMATIC/FAZI booth in Belgrade were provided in the cozy chic of the new AdmiralBet Pub concept that has been recently launched in Serbia.
Miloš Pejić, NOVOMATIC Regional Manager SEE, said: “We are all thrilled by the impact that the new BLACK EDITION cabinet series made at BFG. It is fantastic now to see the region’s operators enthusiastically embracing a product in which so much development effort, meticulous engineering and attention to detail has been invested.”

Amusnet Donates a New RFID System to Sofia Library
Reading Time: < 1 minute
In the heart of Sofia, on Slaveykov Square, there is a place where generations have sought and found knowledge, inspiration and silence — the Sofia Library. For almost a century, it has been a magnetic centre for everyone eager to learn and explore.
On its 97th anniversary, the library took another step forward from tradition to the future. Its doors now open not only to the world of literature but also to the digital era, thanks to a new RFID system donated by the Bulgarian software company Amusnet.
The system, installed at the library’s main entrance, enhances security by preventing the unauthorised removal of valuable editions. Yet its importance goes far beyond that. It lays the foundation for the complete modernisation of the processes within this 97-year-old institution.
“The Sofia City Library is part of the cultural memory of our city. We are honored to contribute to its digital transformation so it can continue to inspire generations to come,” said representative of Amusnet.
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a technology that enables contactless recognition and tracking of objects. In libraries, it is applied through microchip tags placed on each book. Unlike traditional barcodes, RFID can read and record information regardless of the tag’s position, surrounding environment or visibility. This allows for faster processing, automated sorting and inventory checks without the need to remove books from the shelves.
Readers can now easily borrow and return books independently, while librarians can focus on what matters most — the connection between people and knowledge.
Welcoming thousands of visitors each month, the Sofia Library continues to evolve. The introduction of RFID technology marks a new beginning which bridges tradition and innovation.
