AGS to Offer its High-Performing, Chart-Leading Products to Two New Jurisdictions
PlayAGS, Inc., a leading supplier of slot, table, and interactive products and services to the global gaming industry, announced it recently received approval to place its growing portfolio of high-performing electronic gaming machines (“EGMs”) and table products with casino operators in Colorado and Missouri. This entrance marks a significant milestone for AGS and further supports the Company’s mission to become a top-tier gaming supplier in North America.
“Getting licensed in these two important jurisdictions is a meaningful piece of AGS’ overall growth strategy, in combination with the investments we have made in hiring top talent within R&D and expanding our game studios worldwide,” said Mark DeDeaux, AGS Senior Vice President and General Manager, Slots. “We are pleased to be able to offer our high-performing, chart-topping new products to customers in both the Colorado and Missouri markets.”
The entrance into the new jurisdictions comes on the heels of the Company’s successful launch of its latest portrait upright cabinet, Spectra
UR43, featuring its market-resonant Triple Coin Treasuresgame family. The proven three-bag style games have been a hit with players across North America and are among AGS’ first placements in Colorado and Missouri. Spectra UR43launched earlier this year with a bang; the cabinet has topped the Eilers & Krejcik Game Performance survey for nine consecutive months since January 2023.
Players can find Triple Coin Treasures in Colorado casinos: Century Casino & Hotel Central City, Golden Nugget Cripple Creek, and Monarch Casino Resort Spa Black Hawk. In Missouri, players can find AGS games at Horseshoe St. Louis, River City Casino Hotel, Hollywood Casino St. Louis, Argosy Casino Hotel & Spa, Harrah’s Kansas City, Bally’s Kansas City Casino, and Ameristar Casino Hotel Kansas City.
AGS, the global gaming supplier, teamed up with Yaamava’ Resort & Casino at San Manuel in Southern California to host a two-day launch celebration for its newest slot family, Ultra Werewolf
.
The event kicked off on Wednesday, March 4, with special guests Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes, reprising their iconic roles as Jay and Silent Bob from the 90s cult classics Clerks, Mallrats, and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Smith and Mewes were the first to experience the game and shared their impressions during a live recording of their SMPodcast, “Jay & Silent Bob Do Yaamava’.”
The fang-tastic festivities continued the following day with an unveiling celebration attended by Yaamava’ Resort & Casino and AGS representatives, culminating in an exciting slot pull for Club Serrano Members.
Guests were immersed in a comic book–inspired world, featuring a life-sized Werewolf, two werewolf “hunters” from the game, interactive photo opportunities, and custom werewolf-themed slot chair covers. The VIP reception offered themed mocktails, wolf-ear headbands, and free spins on Ultra Werewolf Fury and Ultra Werewolf Strike. Four lucky participants who played the Ultra Werewolf games were entered into a draw for $1,000 in Free Play, with one lucky winner receiving $5,000 in Free Play.
Mark DeDeaux, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Slots at AGS, said:
“Yaamava’ Resort & Casino is the perfect venue to celebrate the dedication and partnership that goes into a world premiere of a slot game. The Ultra Werewolf brand extension builds on the thrilling storyline of the original Werewolf, one of AGS’ most successful premium games. The new franchise takes it further with a unique comic book theme, more bonus features, and all-around excitement. Our collaboration with Yaamava’ and shared focus on delivering innovative, unforgettable player experiences made this the ultimate way to ‘Catch the Wolf.’”
Kenji Hall, General Manager of Yaamava’ Resort & Casino, added:
“Ultra Werewolf represents the kind of creative, high-impact game design that elevates the entire industry. Yaamava’ is dedicated to leading the market in entertainment innovation, and we’re proud to host the launch of AGS’ latest breakthrough.”
The excitement continues, with Ultra Werewolf slot drawings scheduled for March 22, where four Club Serrano players will each win $1,000 in Free Play, and one lucky winner will receive $5,000 in Free Play plus a limited-edition silver Justice League comic collector card.
Ultra Werewolf will be available exclusively at Yaamava’ Resort & Casino for a limited time before expanding to additional casinos nationwide.
