Video Gaming Technologies has been granted a licence to allow its Illinois-based subsidiaries, VGT Manufacturing and VGT Distribution, to manufacture and distribute its Vega$ Jackpot$ gaming terminals in the US state.

The Vega$ Jackpot$ terminal was designed by VGT exclusively for the Illinois gaming market, offering players nine different games to choose from.

"VGT has been working diligently to serve Illinois operators to the best of our ability and we’re looking forward to introducing Vega$ Jackpot$," said James Starr, senior vice president of sales. "We’re confident we’ll be able to deliver a stand-out product."

Having received the relevant licences, VGT will be displaying its entire Illinois product line-up at G2E Las Vegas next month.
