Konami Gaming, Inc.’s 2019 ICE lineup showcases top-performing series curved Concerto Crescent, popular new progressives for dual-screen Concerto upright and Slant, and 4K Ultra HD game content for its latest cabinets: Concerto Opus and KX 43.
On February 5 – 7, an estimated 30,000 guests at ICE Totally Gaming will have the chance to experience an array of original Konami entertainment—from leading mechanics like Strike ZoneTM and Stay & SpinTM, to symbol-driven jackpots and multi-game compatible mystery linked progressives. Konami stand #S7-110 will also feature more than 50 unique themes across its SeleXion® multi-game cabinets, with a focus on delivering the best in quality, fun, and variety for today’s players.
Konami’s curved Concerto CrescentTM and tall Concerto StackTM both feature a stunning 43-inch HD vertical display, with signature Concerto highlights such as the unique side lighting element and sleek black finish. These single-screen formats give players exclusive game content designed to optimize the machines’ extra-tall portrait orientation. Concerto Crescent and Stack both maintain a standard upright base size for flexible configuration across the casino floor.
Among the top Crescent game releases showcased at ICE 2019 is Konami’s new Star Watch series. It uses a similar Strike ZoneTM game mechanic to Celestial Sun Riches and Celestial Moon Riches, but instead of activating a central reel section, players increase their bet to activate entire reel strips from left to right, up to the entire frame. Any prize symbols that land in the Strike Zone award a random credit prize or a wheel spin bonus with guaranteed Mini, Major, Mega, or Maxi jackpot. A player’s selected Strike Zone is also active during the free games, where prize symbols nudge to the fill the entire reel with individual prizes, bonuses, and progressives. Star Watch Magma includes multi-denom options, and both games are available now across global markets.
Further expanding upon Konami’s popular Strike Zone 
mechanic, Agent: Magnifying JackpotsTM is a 5-reel multi-denom game with scaling 4-level standalone jackpots. Throughout game play, reels outlined in gold are part of the active Strike Zone, which awards nudging full-reel wilds. Players expand the Strike Zone to additional reels at higher bet amounts, up to the entire reel frame. With each spin, areas across all 5 reels are randomly replaced with Maxi, Major, and Mini symbols. Five matching jackpot symbols on a payline instantly award the corresponding prize. Full-reel jackpot symbols on the first reel with full-reel nudging wilds on the remaining reels award the Supreme jackpot.
Inspector: Sign of JackpotsTM is an accompanying theme to Agent: Magnifying Jackpots, featuring a 4-level standalone jackpot and Konami’s popular Strike Zone feature. Which each spin, players have the option to select increasing reel areas as the active Strike Zone area for nudging full-reel wilds that substitute for instant jackpot symbols. As players increase the selected ante bet amount, the Strike Zone expands accordingly. Jackpot symbols appear across all reels, randomly populating with each spin for exciting symbol-driven combinations.
