International Game Technology (IGT) has unveiled an innovative gaming experience at St Croix Casinos in Wisconsin through its revolutionary PeakBarTop cabinet. This cabinet offers a suite of gaming options, including video poker and slots, and also introduces integrated sports betting capabilities via IGT’s ‘Total Gaming’ software bundle.
IGT, a major player in the gaming industry, has partnered up with St Croix Casinos in Wisconsin, unveiling the cutting-edge PeakBarTop cabinet that seamlessly combines casino gaming with integrated sports betting features.
In the Badger State’s St Croix Casinos in Turtle Lake and Danbury, the most recent development in casino gaming from IGT made its international debut. Besides, St. Croix Chippewa Indians own another casino venue in Hertel.
Loren Benjamin, General Manager of St. Croix Casino, told the media that the establishment takes great satisfaction in being the first gaming establishment worldwide to offer the ground-breaking PeakBarTop with sports betting via the Total Gaming software package. All players will enjoy this revolutionary offering.
Highlighting IGT’s products, Benjamin emphasized that video poker from IGT has been a consistent feature at St. Croix Casinos, while the newly introduced IGT PlaySports-powered sportsbooks are already demonstrating their effectiveness in drawing in new players and enhancing player involvement.
He added that by offering a cutting-edge sports betting interface on top-notch hardware, IGT’s PeakBarTop with Total Gaming features enrich player experiences.
The ‘Total Gaming’ software package is included on the IGT PeakBarTop cabinet, giving players access to a wide range of gaming options, including video poker, slots, keno, and sports betting, all on the same cabinet with a single gaming wallet.
The product has a 23-inch curved full-HD display and an ergonomic design with viewing angles that players love. Improved lighting and audio accompany the display, and elements like a USB charging connector and Bluetooth technology are integrated with IGT’s cashless gaming technology.
According to Joe Asher, IGT President of Sports Betting, the introduction of IGT’s PeakBarTop with sports betting at St. Croix Casinos is a significant milestone for the company. Customers may now enjoy watching games, playing video poker, and placing sports bets all in one place, which is what the company had long envisioned for sports betting on a Game King Bartop machine.
IGT reportedly boosted its expectations for sales and earnings for the entire year in light of the success in the first half of 2023. Strong Q2 results for the corporation included a 3% YoY increase in revenue to $1.06 billion. This outcome is consistent with the revenue from the first quarter of the same year.
IGT demonstrates its dedication to pushing the limits of innovation and improving the gaming experience for all of its players with the launch of PeakBar Top. This collaboration moves us one step closer to unifying various gaming alternatives on one platform.
