WMS has received a substantial order for 130 machines from Grandwest Casino & Entertainment World, located in Cape Town, South Africa.

The launch, due June 2007, will see the arrival of Jackpot Party Progressives, G+ games, cascading and classic themes, Hot Hot Super Jackpot, Life of Luxury, Hot Hot Penny, Monopoly Big Event and Top Gun.

WMS has its largest-ever library of new and powerful 5-reel video products within the G+, Classic, and Innovation branded game categories. Furthering WMS’ product segmentation strategy, each of these branded 5-reel video game categories will have a distinguishable and streamlined interface that clearly communicates to players the play experiences and game mechanics that each video category provides and assists casino operators with on-floor positioning of the products.

Lawrence Smith, Managing Director of WMS Gaming Africa, said “The WMS team in South Africa are very proud to have been awarded 37% of this Grandwest Casino purchase. This is a tremendous endorsement of the continuing success of our Bluebird product range and our team’s commitment to customer service excellence.”
