According to the company, this success is fueled by Orion's performance during field trials and the growing popularity of AGS's core cabinet, ICON, which was released last year.
“In just over 60 days, we've signed agreements for more than 1,000 Orionunits and we couldn't be more energizedabout its performance and momentum,” said David Lopez, President and CEOof AGS. “Orion's success speaks to our obsession with getting the details right with new hardware and creating games gamblers love to play.”

Orion is poweredby a dynamic library of high-performing game content including Fu Nan Fu Nu, River Dragons, Wolf Queen, and Winter of the Dragons. The cabinet, offered in both Class II and Class III formats, is also available with stunning sign packages and in multiple custom configurations.
“Feedback from customers has been very encouraging and we're already receiving reorders,” added Lopez. “Orion's game librarydepth, coupled with our high-caliber sales talent and the quality of their customer relationships, gives us confidence that Orion's reach will mirror ICON's, which is now more than 2,500 placements strong and still growing.”
