Novomatic installed 68 gaming machines at the Kangwon Land Casino, South Korea’s only gaming floor where Korean residents are allowed to play.
Located in the Gangwon Province, Kangwon Land comprises the High 1 Ski and Golf Resort including the hotel & casino and is operated by the national government, together with the provincial office of Gangwon-do. Among a total number of 17 casinos in Korea, Kangwon Land Casino is the country’s largest and the only one where gaming is allowed not only to foreign visitors, but local residents as well.
State-of-the-art gaming equipment from Austria has long been a part of the gaming offer on the casino floor. Friendly business relations go back to 2009, and over the years, the casino has regularly stocked up on Novomatic gaming equipment. The Kangwon Land casino floor offers its guests exclusive gaming entertainment on some 200 live gaming tables, 208 ETGs and 1,360 slot machines.
Novomatic’s long-term distribution partner, Korea Gaming Solution (KGS), has recently been able to further augment the steady stock of Novomatic games in the casino: a total of 68 video slots have been installed, increasing the total count of the company’s machines on the casino floor to 280 units or over 20% of the floor share.
This latest addition includes the Panthera 2.27 cabinet, the proven Dominator Curve 1.43 as well as the Gaminator Scorpion 2.24 – each with a selection of games to meet the preferences of the casino guests: Novo Line Interactive Edition X, Novo Line Interactive Premium Editions 2 & 3 and the Novo Line Interactive Concurve Edition 3. This broad selection of Novomatic game content ideally complements the gaming offer at Kangwon Land Casino.
Sang-Rae Lee, Slot Manager at Kangwon Land, said: “I am very pleased that our guests really enjoy playing Novomatic products. I look forward to seeing more new games coming out in the future.”
Samuel Lee, CEO of KGS, stated: “Novomatic has a huge growth rate every year in our market. Not only in Kangwon Land Casino – in fact all our customers are satisfied with the Novomatic products. It is a great honour to be able to deliver these products to the Korean market.”
