At G2E Las Vegas 2025, we presented one of our most comprehensive product portfolios to date. Under the theme “Play like you own the block,” NOVOMATIC showcased its commitment to innovation across every segment – from cabinets and game content to systems and digital solutions” explained Thomas Schmalzer, Vice President of Global Sales and Product Management at NOVOMATIC AG and added “Among the highlights was the U.S. premiere of the DIAMOND X™ 1.55J Quattro, which once again demonstrated why this cabinet line has become synonymous with premium engineering and design. The introduction of XTENSION LINK™ Ultimate and the new Volumes 3 and 4 attracted strong interest, confirming the global success of this progressive series. Equally impressive was the presentation of the V.I.P. X™ Galaxy 2.65, delivering an extraordinary large-scale gaming experience and supporting seamless integration with the NOVO UNITY™ electronic table games system. Together, these innovations underline NOVOMATIC’s strength in combining cutting-edge technology, operational performance, and player appeal on a truly international scale".

About G2E 25th anniversary

G2E’s 25th anniversary was a milestone not only for the show itself but for the entire gaming industry. NOVOMATIC has been part of this journey for many years, and being present at such a landmark edition was a matter of pride for us”.

“It’s a testament to how far the industry has come in terms of innovation, regulation, and international collaboration.

This shift reflects the industry’s focus on creating more engaging, flexible, and performance-driven environments for players and operators alike”.
