LAS VEGAS, June 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Scientific Games Corporation (NASDAQ: SGMS) ("Scientific Games" or the "Company") announced today the launch of THE SIMPSONS – a new wide area progressive slot game featuring beloved characters and settings from the record-breaking popular animated television series of the same name. THE SIMPSONS slot game is showcased on the groundbreaking and immersive Gamescape™ cabinet.

THE SIMPSONS boasts six bonus games centered on popular characters from THE SIMPSONS television series including the Donut Wheel Bonus, Moe's Pranks A Lot, Apu's Scrat-Cha-Pa-Looza, Krusty's It's Cobblering Time, Wiggum-A-Role and Homer's Monorail Madness. THE SIMPSONS is played on a captivating base game with multiple features including symbol cloning, a mystery symbol, and character respin features.

THE SIMPSONS is showcased on the revolutionary Gamescape cabinet, which is designed to envelop players in the gaming experience with three vivid HD displays, a 40-inch top screen, and an ergonomic 10.4-inch tablet multi-touch button panel display, all integrated for coordinated game play graphics that give players the sensation of being immersed in the world of Homer and friends. The extra wide display allows for the game's bonus features to expand the game array up to 24 reels, giving players more excitement and more ways to win. THE SIMPSONS also integrates an industry-first gesture control element utilizing motion sensor technology to allow the player to physically interact with the game in some of the bonus features.

"We could not be more excited to launch THE SIMPSONS, which is based on the hugely popular and iconic television show," said Derik Mooberry, Executive Vice President and Group Chief Executive of Gaming for Scientific Games.
