Phoenix-based Atronic and Konami Gaming announced in a press release that they have signed a multi-year contract. The two companies have agreed that Atronic will develop its new product called Passion Slots, based on Konami’s software and hardware platforms.

“This agreement is the first of its kind for Konami Gaming,” Steve Sutherland, Chief Operating Officer, said. “We're delighted to be working with Atronic. It's a mutually beneficial agreement that will raise more consumer awareness and hence market share for both companies.”

“We greatly value the partnership with Konami Gaming. We are excited about the important stepper-product market segment, and providing our customers a great product,” Michael Lauer of Atronic said.

The Passion Slots will be launched in Las Vegas at G2E.
