At MGM Grand Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas

(US).- Aristocrat Technologies and tennis phenomenon Andre Agassi are bringing the excitement of this successful player’s winning tennis career to casino floors this summer with today’s debut of Aristocrat’s Agassi-themed video slot game at the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.


Aristocrat´s Agassi game will debut this month in a number of Las Vegas and Reno area casinos.

Aristocrat’s Agassi game has been approved by the Nevada Gaming Control Board and will debut this month in a number of Las Vegas and Reno area casinos, including all eight of Station Casinos’ Station and Fiesta-branded casinos in the Las Vegas valley.

The penny game combines Aristocrat’s surefire math with a slot theme reflecting the celebrity personality of international tennis star Agassi, only one of five men in the history of the sport to win all four Grand Slam tournaments (Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open Championships). Agassi also won an Olympic gold medal for the US in 1996.

"Aristocrat’s game designers truly outdid themselves with the design and entertainment aspects of the game," Agassi said.

"We couldn’t ask for a better partner than Andre Agassi, whose life epitomizes the kind of sophistication reflected in Aristocrat’s video slots," said Gavin Isaacs, President of Aristocrat Technologies, Inc. "We worked closely with Andre and his team to ensure that this game met their high standards and reflected Agassi’s reputation for excellence."

"We’re rolling this game out to all of our Station and Fiesta-branded properties in Las Vegas this month, and we are confident the game is going to be extremely well-liked with our players based on the popularity of Andre Agassi and our players’ appreciation for Aristocrat’s entertaining style of game play and second-screen bonus features," said Jay Fennel, Station Casinos’ Corporate Director of Slot Operations.

Aristocrat’s Agassi slot machines feature a sleek and sophisticated cabinet design with a 19-inch, flat-screen LCD monitor on the top box that incorporates the progressive jackpot meters. Interactive colors and graphics animate and change during jackpot wins and bonus rounds.

The games include a standalone, two-level progressive that delivers frequent jackpot wins. Players can add even more excitement by betting maximum lines and making an additional wager, which makes them eligible for one of four interactive, mystery bonus games incorporating multipliers, free games, and player’s choice features.
