Konami to showcase more than 120 different game themes at SAGSE Buenos Aires

What are you showcasing at SAGSE Buenos Aires?

In total, Konami will be featuring more than 120 different game themes across the Concerto SeleXion multi-game lineup. Since its debut, SeleXion has been our most popular gaming product internationally and is further expanding with the addition of single screen formats on Concerto Crescent and Concerto Stack. Now our latest game themes—including Dragon Fury, China Shores Great Stacks, Mayan Chief Great Stacks, Lotus Land Deluxe Wild, and more—can be combined on one 43-inch HD screen, with the option to add a standalone or linked progressive. And it supports diverse configuration options for multiple languages, denominations, and currencies. So we’re very excited to see Concerto Crescent and Stack added to our SeleXion lineup, to give players even more Konami game options on one machine.  

Guests at SAGSE can also expect to see a great mix of Konami’s latest standalone and linked progressive game releases, including Smash Smash Festival. This linked bonus game features an entirely new mechanic that increases the number of mystery prizes in a winner-takes-all prize pool instead of traditional progressive jackpot meters. When the Smash Time bonus triggers, players get to experience the excitement of smashing open a mix of surprising piñata prizes and then celebrating the final grand tally. It is a fun and unique game that is available now and can be combined with most any KP3+ base game titles.

What are your expectations for this year’s tradeshow?

Our primary expectations for SAGSE are to meet and greet our casino customers in the region, get a deeper understanding of their needs and goals for the future, and thank them for the continuous support.

We recently added Atlantic Venture as Konami’s new exclusive distributor for Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay. We’re very excited to be working with Norma da Silva and Leonardo Sosa for this event especially.

How is the Argentinean market in general and in relation to Konami products?

Konami products are well accepted by players across Argentina. The Argentinean gaming market is mature and casino operators seek out the latest Konami games to attract and entertain their core customer base. 

How has this year been for Konami so far?

We are set to achieve our objectives for Latin America. SeleXion multi-game on Concerto has been a star product for Konami. The addition of the curved Concerto Crescent and tall Concerto Stack to our Concerto SeleXion lineup has received very good feedback from operators. We should start seeing first installations before the end of the year.

What are Konami’s main objectives for the upcoming year?

Konami is focused on supporting the market with top quality games and delivering innovative entertainment for players to enjoy. The popularity of the Concerto Collection and new KP3+ platform games has seen strong momentum and we will continue to grow a rich library of top themes with proven math and play mechanics. Latin America is an important market to Konami and we’ll continue to work to expand our presence with operators across these key regions.
