Aristocrat Gaming has installed the world’s first $1 million version of its MONOPOLY Big Board Bucks slot game at The Venetian Resort Las Vegas, expanding the premium jackpot offering following the game’s launch earlier this year.
The installation marks the first $1 million edition of the title, which debuted on casino floors in April and ranked as the top premium intellectual property slot game in the Eilers U.S. & Canada Game Performance Report for May.
The new version joins Aristocrat Gaming’s portfolio at The Venetian Resort, which also includes the world’s first $2 million progressive jackpot Dragon Link games and $1 million Dragon Link titles.
“When we first won a competitive RFP to reimagine the MONOPOLY theme for slot games, we promised innovation and new experiences,” Craig Toner, Chief Executive Officer of Aristocrat Gaming, said.
“The original version of the game delivered on that promise in a big way, and now we are raising the bar again with this $1 million version of MONOPOLY Big Board Bucks. We are grateful to our partners at The Venetian Resort for being part of this exciting journey,” he added.
Rick Luthy, Vice President of Slot Operations at The Venetian Resort Las Vegas, said: ”At The Venetian Resort Las Vegas, we curate every detail of the gaming experience with our guests in mind, constantly seeking bold, immersive ways to deliver the very best in world-class play.”
“Introducing the first-ever $1 million MONOPOLY Big Board Bucks is an exciting milestone, blending iconic nostalgia with high-limit excitement. We’re proud to be able to deliver innovative, exclusive experiences our guests can’t find anywhere else,” Luthy said.
MONOPOLY Big Board Bucks recreates elements of the classic board game, including player-selectable tokens, Mr. Monopoly, Free Parking, houses, hotels and the game board, while incorporating bonus features such as Extra Spins, Extra Properties, Extra Houses and Free Games.
The game is available on Aristocrat Gaming’s Baron Portrait cabinet and features a new Skyline signage package with LED-lit themed panel dividers and dual-tier LED toppers themed around MONOPOLY game pieces.
