Gila River Resorts & Casinos has introduced Phoenix Link, a new slot machine series from Aristocrat Gaming, across its properties in Arizona.
This makes Gila River the exclusive operator in the state to feature the game, which reportedly offers players updated visuals, new gameplay and linked progressive jackpots.
Phoenix Link builds upon the success of Aristocrat’s Dragon Link, a slot machine known for its linked progressive jackpots and widespread popularity.
The new release incorporates a phoenix theme, aiming to capture the symbolism of transformation and renewal with fresh graphics and features.
Good to know: Gila River operates Phoenix Link at its four locations: Wild Horse Pass, Santan Mountain, Lone Butte and Vee Quiva
To mark the launch, Gila River hosted unveiling events on 22 November, featuring live entertainment and ribbon-cutting ceremonies.
Blake Katsnelson, Gila River Resorts & Casinos COO, commented: “This game takes everything players love about Dragon Link and infuses it with a bold new theme and innovative features, creating a one-of-a-kind experience on our casino floors.”
Earlier in 2023, Gila River opened the Santan Mountain Casino, a 160,000-square-foot property equipped with over 800 slot machines powered by IGT’s gaming systems.
