Global gaming supplier Light & Wonder will debut a brand-new slot machine based on the popular South Korean series “Squid Game” at G2E in Las Vegas this week.
Introducing elements from the most popular Netflix series of all time, the slot machine integrated iconic games from the show such as Red Light, Green Light; Tug of War; and The Glass Tile, according to preview information from Light & Wonder. The new slot will debut on the company’s large-screen jumbo cabinet HORIZON, which features a 75-inch screen with 600,000 individual micro-LED pixels – taking the display area to a massive 90-inches. The cabinet also offers a large, transparent iDeck with integrated lighting, 27-inch touch screen, mobile charger and dual play buttons for an immersive and seamless player experience.
Light & Wonder said it will also introduce a digital adaption of the theme, featuring three bonus rounds inspired by the iconic games from the Squid Game series.
“Light & Wonder is proud to be the first slots gaming company in the industry to partner with Netflix’s Squid Game and bring this ground-breaking show to life across multiple casino gaming platforms,” said Matt Wilson, Light & Wonder Chief Executive Officer. “We’ve seen how combining fan-favorite shows with immersive gameplay can resonate with audiences both digitally and on casino floors.
