AGS will soon launch another variation of its Rakin’ Bacon slot games. Rakin’ Bacon! Sahara will debut tonight at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City as part of an exclusive simultaneous omnichannel launch on Hard Rock Bet.

Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City President George Goldhoff expressed his excitement for the upcoming release by saying, “Hard Rock Atlantic City welcomes AGS’ Rakin’ Bacon! Sahara to our exciting casino where all the latest and most popular games are offered among our 2,425 slot machines. We know our slot customers will love this new game, whether they play at our casino or online at Hard Rock Bet.

“We are proud to be a leader in the industry offering the most innovative gaming technology and look forward to the rollout of Rakin’ Bacon! Sahara.”

To celebrate the occasion, the casino will hold an invitation-only cocktail hour at 6PM local time. Along with cocktails, guests of the party will also have a chance to enjoy pig-themed food and drinks.

There will also be a ribbon-cutting ceremony on the casino floor to commemorate the launch.

Hard Rock Digital SVP of Casino Grant Williams commented, “This exclusive omnichannel experience is exactly what we envisioned when we launched Hard Rock Bet in New Jersey last year, and we’re thrilled to be celebrating with our great partners in Atlantic City.

“AGS games – including the recent launch of our bespoke online slot collaboration, Hard Rockin’ Reels – have been extremely popular on Hard Rock Bet, and we know our players are going to love this newest addition of Rakin’ Bacon! Sahara.”

AGS VP of Interactive Zoe Ebling briefly discussed the company’s ongoing relationship with Hard Rock.

Ebling said, “This partnership demonstrates AGS' strength in executing major strategic initiatives and underscores our commitment to delivering superior gaming experiences.

"Following our successful bespoke game 'Hard Rockin' Reels,' this omnichannel launch further cements our robust partnership with Hard Rock, setting new industry standards and showcasing our innovation and quality.”
