This represents the first launch combining Scientific Games' lottery digital products with those from the recent acquisition of NYX Gaming Group, digital platforms, games, and services. Scientific Games and the Pennsylvania Lottery launched the new iLottery games as part of a series of legislative initiatives that also included Keno and Virtual Sports.

Commenting on the launch Pennsylvania Lottery Executive Director Drew Svitko said:"Pennsylvania iLottery games are a fun, new way to play and win from home or while on the go .iLottery is a big part of our effort to meet our players where they already are while generating new funds to benefit older Pennsylvanians."

The iLottery program is powered by Scientific Games' systems technology and portfolio of entertaining digital lottery games, as well as innovative technology that integrates third-party game providers. Offering chances to win up to $250,000, the new digital lottery games may be played on a computer, tablet or mobile device.

The game titles include: Big Money SLINGO, Bigfoot, Cash Buster Towers, Cash in the Lamp, Crossword Cash, Foxin' Wins, Monster Wins, Robin Hood, Super Cash Buster, Super Gems, and Volcano Eruption. Players can try demo versions of the interactive games at www.pailottery.com. The new iLottery program includes Scientific Games' responsible gaming controls, and an innovative affiliate program that benefits existing Pennsylvania Lottery retailers.

Pat McHugh, Senior Vice President, Global Lottery Systems for Scientific Games, added: "Scientific Games has a long history of investing in innovative games, technology and services that maximize Lottery funds to benefit older Pennsylvanians.

“Our partnership with the Pennsylvania Lottery has resulted in one of the highest performing lotteries in the world.

As part of the affiliate program, the Lottery is partnering with its more than 9,400 retailers to encourage players to sign up for iLottery. Games sold in stores will continue to be the foundation of its business and proceeds to benefit older adults. With the launch of iLottery, Pennsylvania becomes the seventh U.S. state to sell lottery games online.
