Since 1981, IGT has been the leading company specializing in design, development, manufacturing, distribution, and sales of computerized gaming equipment, software, and network systems worldwide. But IGT history reaches well beyond its nearly 30 years of business.
In 2011 IGT revolutionized the casino gaming world by introducing IGT Cloud. This industry-first solution enables operators to optimize floor efficiencies while dynamically deploying game content across multiple properties while providing a seamless gaming experience across land-based, mobile and online devices.
In July 2013, in partnership with Casino Del Sol in Tucson, AZ, IGT held the Game King Championship, the world’s first cross-platform video poker tournament. More than 360,000 players qualified for this unique event – making it the world’s largest poker tournament. Casino Del Sol saw a 20% increase in video poker play on the floor during the event weekend. Impressive results of convergence in action!
In 2013 IGT revealed its bold new brand positioning to complement the Company’s vision and promise to lead and transform gaming entertainment. IGT’s pioneering spirit was omnipresent at G2E in Las Vegas in September of 2013, as the Company showcased the best content, systems solutions and entertainment from “Out of the Blue”.
Global trade show attendees at G2E 2013 took flight for Pandora with the launch of two new IGT MegaJackpots® titles: James Cameron's AVATAR™ Video Slots and James Cameron's AVATAR™, both titles redefine the player experience with never-before-seen technology, stunning visuals, mind-blowing bonus content and thrilling new math. Treasures of Pandora Video Slots is housed on IGT's stunning new CrystalCore™ cabinet, boasting a 42" vertical, 3D touch screen . Both of these James Cameron’s AVATAR MegaJackpots® titles were named "Best Slot Product" in the 2014 Gaming Technology Awards and recognized as Top 20 Most Innovative Gaming Technology Products by Casino Journal.
