Aristocrat Gaming has officially introduced its latest slot franchise, Thunder Empire, to the North American gaming market after achieving notable success in Australia.
The Thunder Empire lineup arrives as a four-game collection that includes King Samurai, Magic Emperor, Mongolian Empress, and Inca Diamonds. Every title comes with Free Games and an upgraded Hold & Spin feature known as Hold & Spin Again. This enhanced mechanic allows players to activate consecutive Hold & Spin rounds, creating additional chances for extended gameplay and larger rewards.
The new slot series is available exclusively on the Baron Portrait cabinet, a premium gaming machine developed with portrait-style screen technology and built-in lighting effects to improve casino floor visibility and player engagement.
All Thunder Empire games are released in two betting formats. The low-denomination edition includes an SSP jackpot beginning at $10,000, while the mid-denomination version features a more advanced payout model with an SSP/SAP jackpot starting at $50,000.
Kurt Gissane, Chief Revenue Officer at Aristocrat Gaming, stated that Thunder Empire became one of the standout successes in the Australian gaming sector and is now expected to generate similar excitement in North America. He also highlighted the four unique game themes and the newly introduced Hold & Spin Again mechanic as key elements that make the series stand out from other slot releases.
