LAS VEGAS, July 11, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Scientific
Games Corporation (NASDAQ: SGMS) ("Scientific Games" or the
"Company") announced today that SG Social, the company's social
gaming division, launched the MONOPOLY Slots mobile app
worldwide. Building on SG Social's successful history of social
slot innovation, MONOPOLY Slots offers new features and
functionality that further engage fans with the iconic brand's
popular characters, gameplay, and movers. The game is available for
download in the Apple App Store, Google Play, Facebook and Amazon
App Store.
A story-driven adventure, MONOPOLY Slots brings key
components of the classic Hasbro board game to life, allowing
players to build their very own MONOPOLY-themed worlds. Players can
build a rich 3D world full of rewards and surprises by playing
slots and earning MONOPOLY bucks. Throughout the MONOPOLY-themed
adventure, players will construct a train station, put on a
concert, discover buried treasure, and complete various missions.
The game also takes players beyond the MONOPOLY board to new worlds
like Ancient Greece; these exciting 'destinations' are each filled
with exotic new slot themes, quests, and characters.
Newly promoted Scientific Games CEO Barry Cottle said, "MONOPOLY and Scientific
Games have a longstanding history of successful collaboration, and
this new game launch further signifies the strength of our
relationship with Hasbro. MONOPOLY Slots combines SG's
history of innovation with the power of a household brand, creating
an unparalleled gaming experience packed with world-class slots and
a revolutionary world-building system reflective of the iconic
board game's key elements."
Within MONOPOLY Slots, players will enjoy a number of
authentic Bally® and WMS® brand slot machines.
MONOPOLY Slots will not only connect social casino users
with MONOPOLY-branded content, but also slot games based on
Hasbro's extensive line of household favorites such as the
BATTLESHIP, CLUE, OUIJA, and YAHTZEE games.
Mark Blecher, SVP of Digital
Gaming and Corporate Development at Hasbro said, "For over 80
years, MONOPOLY fans worldwide have enjoyed a variety of unique
ways to engage with the brand – from licensed versions of the game
to a robust consumer products portfolio. The new MONOPOLY
Slots offering is one of many innovative collaborations between
Hasbro and SG Social, and we look forward to continue working in
tandem to bring the best possible gaming experiences to our fans
nationwide."
