The first cohort of NFL-themed slot machines produced by Aristocrat Gaming are being rolled out to casinos around the United States this week ahead of the season kicking off next week.

Casino players can select their favorite out of the 32 National Football League teams to play with on the brand-new slot game, no matter where they are in the country. Currently being rolled out at land-based casinos, they are not available to play at slot sites.

The National Football League has an agreement in place with Aristocrat Gaming to produce the NFL-themed slots since 2021, with a non-exclusive license for virtual sports games also included in the deal. It was the first deal of its kind for the NFL.

Further Locations Coming

Now NFL Super Bowl Jackpots™ will be available to play at casinos in locations around Nevada, California, Oklahoma, Connecticut, Florida, Massachusetts, Oregon, and Arizona. Further locations will receive the product in the coming months.

Hector Fernandez, CEO of Aristocrat Gaming, said: "After nearly two years of collaboration with the NFL and NFL Players Association, we finally get to see these game-changing machines in action.

"A tremendous thank you to our teams around the world for their collective brilliance to make today possible."

NFL x Gambling Partnerships

Gambling-related sponsorships are relatively new in the sport. Only in 2019, the Dallas Cowboys became the first NFL team to reach a sponsorship deal with the WinStar World Casino in Oklahoma. Now, several teams have either casino or sports betting partnerships, there’s a team in Las Vegas (the Raiders), and the first NFL-themed slot machines are on their way.

The NFL was enthused about the partnership when it was initially announced. Rachel Hoagland, NFL Vice President of Gaming and Partnership Management, said at the time: "The world of casino gaming is transforming, and the NFL is thrilled to be teaming up with industry leader, Aristocrat Gaming, with their proven track record in slot machine innovation and commitment to responsible gaming."
