IGT and Everi Bring Their First Combined Games, Systems and FinTech Portfolio to G2E 2026 in Las Vegas
The combined company finally has a showroom. When the Global Gaming Expo opens in Las Vegas this month, IGT and Everi will stand on the floor together for the first time, and the way they have built the stand says more than any single game sitting on it.
IGT confirmed the plan in its announcement on 21 September 2026. Instead of games in one corner, systems in another and cash access off to the side, everything at booth 4455 is designed to read as one connected floor. The showcase runs from 28 September to 1 October.
IGT and Everi step onto the G2E 2026 floor as one company
Start with what has actually changed.
This is the first Global Gaming Expo where the two names appear together as a single entity. IGT is now the company formed through the combination of International Game Technology PLC’s Gaming & Digital Business and Everi Holdings Inc.
It is organised into Gaming, Digital and FinTech units, headquartered in Las Vegas. The booth is essentially that structure made physical. Three units, one floor, one story.
IGT expands its RISE32 and RISE55 casino game lineup for G2E
For most operators, the games are the first stop.
On the RISE32 cabinet, IGT is bringing Lightning Rails and Split ‘N’ Win Link Boost, both with player-selectable denomination configurations.
The RISE55 cabinet holds the premium releases: Money Gong Divine and Tiger and Dragon Power Sphere. Alongside them sit Piggz Link, with its Frankenswine and Prince of Porkness base games, and Triple Coin Link running the Grand Buddha and Grand Cat themes.
It is a spread built to give a floor manager options across denominations and player tastes.
Wheel of Fortune Slots turns 30 with new titles and a first live dealer game
Few brands on a casino floor carry the pull of that familiar chant.
This year Wheel of Fortune Slots marks three decades, and IGT is celebrating with fresh stepper and video interpretations:
▸ Wheel of Fortune Magic Coins on the RISE55 cabinet
▸ Wheel of Fortune Sunny Money on the SkyRise cabinet
▸ Wheel of Fortune Triple Wheel Burst: Glow 7s on the DiamondRS Wheel cabinet
The franchise also steps into new territory. IGT is previewing its first-ever live dealer iGaming title, Wheel of Fortune Frenzy, carrying a 30-year floor favourite into the digital space.
Everi Vi and IGT ADVANTAGE X connect play, funding and the gaming floor
This is where the connected-floor idea earns its name.
Everi Vi puts Class II gaming in a player’s hand. IGT describes it as the industry’s first and only turnkey Class II real-money mobile gaming solution, stretching play beyond the traditional floor.
Sitting underneath it, the IGT ADVANTAGE X casino management system brings real-time data, on-premise and cloud deployment, and expanded direct funding. Sources such as Apple Pay and Venmo now integrate with Everi solutions.
Everi FinTech fills in the rest: PitXpress for table games, BeOn Pay2Game and CashClub Wallet for digital funding, and the cash-access innovations Bitline and B4U.
Loyalty, funding and engagement, all pointed at the same player journey.
IGT frames the whole showcase as one connected player journey
Pull it together and the message from the top is about connection, not any one product.
Here is how IGT CEO Hector Fernandez put it:
“At G2E 2026, our customers will experience our transformation through a portfolio that connects every touchpoint of the player journey. From chart-topping games for the RISE32 and RISE55 cabinets to next-generation Wheel of Fortune Slots, IGT ADVANTAGE X systems and Everi FinTech solutions, we are creating a connected casino floor.”
For an operator, that is the whole pitch in a sentence. The game, the system and the payment working as one flow, instead of three tools stitched together after the fact.
What does IGT and Everi’s connected casino floor mean for operators?
G2E 2026 reads as the first full public statement of what the combined company wants to be. A single provider across games, systems and FinTech, rather than three suppliers sharing a logo.
The stand at booth 4455 is that argument in physical form.
How operators respond to the connected-floor approach will shape what the merged IGT looks like on real casino floors through the year ahead. That is the part worth watching once the show lights go down.
