Per IGT’s announcement, its subsidiary, IGT Canada Solutions Limited, emerged as the winner of a competitive VLT procurement process by WCLC.

As a result, the company will supply an additional 720 Sierra27 VLTs this year, powering WCLC’s offering in Saskatchewan.

The VLT offers two HD 27-inch screens, as well as a 13.3-inch dynamic player panel that has dual bash buttons, as well as a wireless inductive charger.

High performing games designed specifically to match the preferences of players across Canada power the library of games available via the Sierra27 VLT.
