Remember when the National Football League hated gambling? And now we have NFL slot machines? What a strange world we live in! Aristocrat Gaming and the League have released the first visuals of the new themed games with the reveal of the NFL Super Bowl Jackpots game.
This introductory new game will bring the largest sports brand in America to casino floors across the country, right at the start of the 2023 season. The original license agreement for NFL slot machines was announced in fall 2021, providing both companies with an enhanced opportunity to drive engagement from their respective customer bases through an entirely new slot gaming experience.
“Today, we are thrilled to debut the first look of the new NFL-licensed slot machines, which will provide an innovative entertainment experience for millions of NFL fans who enjoy the fun of casino gaming,” said Hector Fernandez, CEO of Aristocrat Gaming. “We are changing the game with this first-of-its-kind slot machine, offering fans the ability to customize the experience by selecting their favorite team in any casino they choose to play.”
“The unveiling of the first NFL slot machines represents an opportunity to bring the League closer to our fans in a new area,” said Joe Ruggiero, SVP of Consumer Products at the NFL. “We have valued collaborating with Aristocrat to bring their vision and responsible gaming resources to fans during the 2023 NFL season and beyond.”
This much-awaited reveal of NFL Super Bowl Jackpots on the new King Max cabinet is the first of several games that will be unveiled over time as part of this industry-leading, multi-year agreement. Casino players of Super Bowl Jackpots™ have the chance to win a $1 million progressive jackpot, where permitted, and experience additional rich game play features, including six licensed fan-favorite stadium anthems during key moments in the game.
The additional slot machines in the initial product roster that will debut later this year and into 2024 include Overtime Cash, Super Bowl Link, NFL Kickoff, Winning Drive, and Rings of Victory – each inspired by a unique element of NFL game play and featuring customizable team options.
Aristocrat Gaming is committed to responsible game play, with a comprehensive company program focused on strong compliance, empowering customers and casino players, and investing in innovation to help lift the bar. Aristocrat Gaming will be launching a first-of-its-kind responsible gaming marketing and advertising campaign this Fall to coincide with the launch of the NFL slot machines.
In addition, the NFL hosts an extensive, integrated league-wide responsible betting public awareness program. For more information about responsible gambling tools and resources, visit their Responsible Play website, hosted by the National Council on Problem Gambling.
