LAS VEGAS, Sept. 30, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --New spinning reel action pairs with community gaming innovation at the Global Gaming Expo (G2E) as International Game Technology (NYSE: [ IGT ]) debuts exciting Core and Video Poker titles, featuring impressive, exciting game play Oct. 4-6, at the Sands Expo and Convention Center in Las Vegas.

Casino operators worldwide have reaped the benefits of IGT's powerful Core for-sale games and Video Poker themes, and this year IGT showcases its latest lineup on 150 machines that are Built to Perform. With market-leading performance and outstanding math models, IGT games create enhanced entertainment experiences for players everywhere.

At G2E, IGT introduces new community gaming action and a modern spin on casino classics with thrilling three-reel, single-payline games, plus creative and engaging video slot games that will bring excitement to any floor. Attendees also will see the next generation of an IGT Video Poker favorite packed with the game play and bonus action that players love.

Fast-Hit Progressives™, a family of mechanical five-reel games, deliver color to the spinning-reel world with the industry's first five-reel community play bonus. When one of five progressives hit, the winner receives a jackpot while another equal award is shared among the other players, making everyone a winner. This new premium design features an eye-catching communal, top box display made up of three, 32-inch LCD screens. During the game a mystery '7' symbol may randomly appear and move across players' top box display to add excitement and award bonuses.

IGT ushers in the revival of spinning reel games designed to appeal to the traditional player. At G2E 2011, attendees can preview an extensive offering of three-reel, single payline mechanical slot games, including Haywire Multipliers™ and Blue Blazes® Win Zeros!™. These games are featured on the enhanced version of IGT's S AVP® cabinet, featuring new lighting to attract players and drive performance.

As many G2E attendees know, IGT's Core video slots are recognized industry-wide as leaders on casino floors. According to the September 2011 edition of the UBS Slot Industry Survey, IGT video products scored highest in game performance in 2011. IGT shows why it continues to be an industry leader in video slots by bringing its newest lineup of top-performing Video Slot games featuring proven and new math models to the expo including Wolf Run 2 Into the Wild™, Jungle VIP™ and Mount Fortune™ OnCore Progressives.

Building on the success of IGT's Wolf Run® is the sequel, Wolf Run 2 Into the Wild™ MLD® 3D Video Slots. An industry first, the entire symbol set of the game uses real wildlife imagery shot by world-famous nature photographers. The character-driven Jungle VIP™ Video Slot features rich MLD® 3D entertainment and exciting bonuses. Mount Fortune™ OnCore Progressives has new mystery progressive bonus action, which takes place over player-favorite themes with proven math models.

From IGT's legendary Video Poker line is the new Build A Wheel Poker™ game, the next generation of wildly successful video poker wheel games. This game offers the first-ever dynamic video wheel used in a video poker bonus. And when players fill in the wheel slices by winning jackpots or are dealt a full house, they get to spin their wheel and collect a big win. It's never the same game twice.

IGT continues to raise the bar in cabinet design with the G20 V2, G23 V2, S AVP® and Universal Slant models. With a design influenced by operator feedback, the Universal Slant combines the comfortable profile of a slant with the appeal of a traditional upright.
