Scientific Games has signed an agreement with Mersoy Turizm to supply it with a broad portfolio of WMS and Bally-branded gaming machines and Shuffle Master table products for the new Elexus Hotel Resort Casino in Northern Cyprus.
Mersoy Turizm is owned by an international group that operates several resorts and travel agencies around the world. It conducted an extensive evaluation and competitive bidding process before choosing a broad array of Scientific Games' WMS, Bally and Shuffle Master products for its cutting-edge casino, which opened last month. It is located in the seaside city of Girne, the largest resort in Northern Cyprus.
The Shuffle Master-branded games account for 100 per cent floor share of new table products. Ibrahim Esen, casino director, said: “We selected Scientific Games as our preferred business partner because of its diverse portfolio of gaming products combined with high-level product support. We fiercely believe that the popular WMS, Bally and Shuffle Master product brands will add tremendous gaming excitement for our customers and will help drive our revenues.”
The casino has more than 90 WMS and Bally game titles, accounting for up to 40 per cent of the venue’s gaming devices. Also, the casino opened with Scientific Games’ state-of-the-art video, spinning reel and speciality game cabinets, including the newly introduced WMS Blade s23 cabinet and the Bally Pro V27-27 slant cabinet.
Marco Herrera, VP and managing director (EMEA) for Scientific Games, said: “Scientific Games is honoured to partner with one of the industry's most innovative casino properties on both table products and gaming machines. Our deep industry knowledge, technology-driven products and passionate people will empower the Elexus Hotel Resort Casino to create the world’s best gaming experience for the player, driving performance and results.”
