IGT launches Whitney Houston Slots game in the US

International Game Technology PLC has released the long-anticipated Whitney Houston Slots game, which is now available to players in casinos across the United States.

Players have the opportunity to play a new highly polished title that is coming as part of the IGT’s dedicated cabinets and will introduce Whitney Houston fans and slot aficionados to a captivating gameplay punctuated by the image and likeness of the iconic singer, her catchy tunes, and naturally, an array of high-performing game features and mechanics.

IGT’s winning formula for licensed games shines in Whitney Houston Slots game

The game is hosted out of the SkyRise cabinet, the newest hardware tech by the company. The cabinet is 11-feet tall and offers two 55" screens, along with 4K resolution and curved-edge LCD screens to give you the immersive experience you deserve. The graphics are flawless, and so is the overall execution of the entire machine designed to host more than just the Whitney Houston Slots game.

Commenting on this fresh instalment, IGT COO Gaming, Nick Khin, said that the company was absolutely thrilled to be adding the new title to casino floors. He called the game an exercise that successfully exemplifies IGT’s "winning formula" for building licensed games and offering world-class entertainment to fans all over the country.

The Whitney Houston Slots was developed in collaboration with The Estate of Whitney E. Houston and Primary Wave Music, which have worked together to not just recycle the image and likeness of the start, but also to create an experience that stands out, much like the talented star that has become known as "The Voice of a Generation."

Ready yourself for some of Whitney Houston’s best hits in slot form

Among the core features of the game, players can now enjoy a setting that will make them feel like they are at an actual concert site, with the game loaded with some of Houston’s all-time hits, such as "How Will I Know," "I Wanna Dance with Somebody," and "So Emotional," among others.

Things get even better when you take a closer look at the core gameplay, which is built to revolve around the spinning of reels, but uses ample footage and photos from Houston’s concerts and live events. Players will also have the opportunity to go on a hunt for platinum record symbols for a chance to trigger a respin bonus.

This is hardly all there is, as the game also features a juicy jackpot, with the top-level wide area progressive jackpot capped at $500,000 for an opportunity to add serious wins to your bankroll as a player. Earlier this year, IGT released the Tiger and Dragon game.
