NOVOMATIC is a firm that, historically, has an remarkable presence in the casinos of Argentina, but the procedure of on line casino closures owing to the pandemic slowed down, for a extended time, the investment decision of operators in new devices. Luckily, these investments have received new momentum in the previous months, as soon as the gaming halls started out to run commonly all over the state.

The restoration of the current market has been extraordinary and much exceeded our anticipations. We believe that this is thanks, mostly, to the high stage of professionalism of the companies that operate the casinos and gaming rooms, and the support that the suppliers have presented them.

The marketplace, and primarily the gamblers, inquire for additional and new goods, game titles that meet up with their anticipations and supply the risk of accessing large prizes, and as always, NOVOMATIC develops new video games and cupboards to fulfill the desire of the public and operators.
