Aristocrat Gaming has officially launched its popular NFL-themed slot machine franchise outside of the United States, bringing excitement to Puerto Rico with the introduction of the NFL Triple Score game. This marks a significant milestone for the company, which first introduced the NFL Slots portfolio in North America. The game debuted in Puerto Rico on January 22, 2024, at Casino del Mar in San Juan, as part of a 13-casino rollout linked to the Jackpot del Encanto program.
The NFL Slots experience expands to Puerto Rico:
The NFL Triple Score slot machine is the first title from Aristocrat’s NFL Slots franchise to be launched beyond the continental U.S. The launch event at Casino del Mar included a ribbon-cutting ceremony, celebrating both the game’s debut and the ongoing partnership between Aristocrat and the NFL. The game is designed to bring the excitement of NFL fandom into casinos with customizable features, including the option to select teams, with graphics, symbols, and video clips from NFL games.
The NFL Triple Score game is now live across participating casinos in Puerto Rico, integrated into the Jackpot del Encanto program, which offers a progressive jackpot that increases as more players engage with the game. The jackpot starts at $20,000, and prizes grow as more participants join in. The game is displayed on the MarsX Portrait cabinet, which has been well-received for its high-quality graphics and interactive features. It is modeled after Aristocrat’s popular Bao Zhu Zhao Fu game family, incorporating features that have already proven successful in North America.
This expanded launch comes on the heels of the NFL Slots’ success in the U.S. market. With a broad fanbase globally, the NFL has been a major driving force in Aristocrat’s decision to introduce these games internationally. According to PR Newswire, the company’s CEO, Craig Toner, expressed his excitement over the expansion, stating, “The NFL has immense popularity globally with fans all across the world, and we are thrilled to now bring the game to a broader stage. We look forward to seeing the excitement from players in Puerto Rico and continuing the success our award-winning NFL portfolio has seen in North America.”
A global expansion strategy for NFL slots:
While the Puerto Rico launch marks the first international expansion, Aristocrat Gaming has plans to bring its NFL-themed slot machines to other markets across Latin America and Europe in the near future. The company’s successful partnership with the NFL has positioned them to leverage the global appeal of the league as they continue to innovate and expand their gaming portfolio.
The launch event and the subsequent rollout have generated considerable enthusiasm, as players can now enjoy a gaming experience that brings the thrill of NFL football directly into the casino environment. With customization options and familiar NFL branding, the NFL Triple Score game promises to resonate with sports fans and slot players alike, offering both a fun and immersive experience.
Aristocrat is committed to maintaining a responsible gaming environment, with a comprehensive program focused on compliance, player education, and innovation. The company continues to prioritize responsible gameplay and has partnered with the NFL’s responsible betting initiative to help raise awareness about gambling-related issues.
Following the successful launch in Puerto Rico, Aristocrat Gaming is eager to continue expanding its NFL Slots franchise across other international markets, including additional locations in Latin America and Europe. This move reflects the company’s broader strategy of capitalizing on the global popularity of the NFL and bringing an exciting, themed gaming experience to a wider audience.
Craig Toner’s comments reflect the company’s optimism for the future: “This launch is a major step forward in continuing our successful partnership with the NFL. We look forward to seeing the excitement from players in Puerto Rico and continuing the success our award-winning NFL portfolio has seen in North America.”
