Offering a whole new dimension of gaming encapsulated in a sleek, sensuous and futuristic cabinet with enhanced audio-visual capabilities, advanced processing power and refined aesthetics and ergonomics, the Helix cabinet range will provide an ideal vehicle to parade Aristocrat’s player centric gaming segments.
Leveraging the key learnings from the hugely successful E*Series family of games, the very best elements of their maths, video animations and audio effects have been integrated into two new families – the J-Series Jackpot games and C-Series Core games. All three families will feature an extraordinary array of innovative concepts whose massive player appeal will become very quickly evident to visitors to our stand at ICE,” explained Maguire.
“Max Stacks was a power-house game mechanic behind much of the E*Series success in 2014, starting with the Sky Rider and Temple of the Tiger game families and compounded by later models, Moon Maidens and Pearl Warriors, incorporating Double-Up and Triple-Up features,” he continued. “The next chapter in the story, Flowers of Babylon takes this theme to the next level with addition of a three-level standalone jackpot over base games Heart of Iris and Lily of the Nile.”
Following on from the most recent E*Series family release, Magic Flower, Aristocrat is bringing more Exploding Reels action to EMEA gaming floors with two new titles under the Diamond Dynasty theme, Heart of Eternity and Star of the East, whilst the brand new 3 Emperors games continue this theme with a triple standalone progressive jackpot overhead.
The E*Series Mega Symbol range also gets a boost with the introduction of two new families, the first to be released being The Goddess Sisters incorporating Queen Coral and Viper Princess.
Extending this concept further, the Sacred Guardians family pushes the limits one more step with the addition of a four-level standalone progressive jackpot. Fully demonstrating the continued innovation in this very successful range is a ground-breaking new E*Series family, with Dual Reels technology and a five-level standalone progressive, Romance of Fire & Rain games will include Heart of Fire and Strength of Rain.
Aristocrat’s J-Series has just started hitting gaming floors in Europe, with Jackpot Streak games Garden of Amazon and Sparkling Royal and Quickfire Jackpots titles Electric Boogaloo and Golden Peach showing early and very promising signs of popularity amongst players.
Quickfire Jackpots will welcome two new games at ICE, Panda Paradise and Pharaoh’s Ransom, alongside the introduction of a new four-level jackpot concept, Gold Pays, sporting two variants in Golden Festival and Golden Princess, and the four-level jackpot game Pure Gold featuring Twin Spins
Having gained tremendous traction throughout EMEA over the last 12 months with its core Player’s Choice multi-games, Deluxe and Diamond Edition, Aristocrat is now preparing to release three more multi-game packages with Sapphire, Gold and the high denomination Ultra packs all making their entrance at ICE.
Another huge C-Series success story, Wonder 4, makes a welcome return with a new feature game format, introducing a spinning wheel and the added benefit of overhead jackpots, one for each of its multi-play games, Buffalo Deluxe, Miss Kitty, Wicked Winnings II and Wild Panda, as well as an overarching grand jackpot. Having got off to a hot start with players, The Fabulous Fifties and The Swinging Sixties are now joined by a third Mega Reel Power game, Celtic Queen, whilst ICE sees the launch of its new sister category, Mega Line Power, brandishing launch titles Silver Wolf and Downtown Diamonds.
Underlining the substantial transformation of Aristocrat’s core games segment, a further four C-Series families will be unveiled on the ExCeL show floor, including Super Feature games Fortunes of Atlantis and Sunset King, Super Wheel Blast games Lion of Venice and Miss Liberty, Extra Bonus Wilds games Birds of
Pay and Wild Lepre’Coins and the configurable standalone progressive games Wild Inferno and Wild Wings.
“The combined effect of Aristocrat’s 2015 portfolio of E*Series, J-Series and C-Series games is simply
awesome and a ‘must have’ for any operator looking to grow their gaming revenue over the next 12 months,” concluded Donald Maguire. “Add to this the ‘Helix factor’ and a slew of new, jaw-dropping gaming operations centerpieces – of which more will be revealed in the final weeks before the show – and what we have here really does go beyond the next level; it will take players and operators into a completely new dimension.”
