Light & Wonder debuted its newest Monopoly game, Monopoly Balloon Cash, on its state-of-the-art Cosmic Game Cabinet during a ribbon cutting at Yaamava’ Resort & Casino at San Manuel in Highland, California on June 29. Fans of the iconic Monopoly brand and slot enthusiasts alike can experience the newest title come to life through Cosmic’s immersive contour design, revolutionary fiber-optic lighting and advanced animations. The cabinet’s 27” top monitor display extends celebrated images from the classic game including Mr. Monopoly, his loyal pup, Scottie, and plenty of balloons.

“Our partnership with Hasbro has helped us create a variety of larger-than-life Monopoly-themed games over the years, and Monopoly Balloon Cash is another one we’re excited to add to the mix,” said Mike Owen, Vice President of Sales, Southwest Region at Light & Wonder. “In addition, Yaamava’ has been an incredible partner and we look forward to sharing even more world-class launches with them in the future.”

Also on June 29, an exclusive slot tournament got underway at Yaamava’. The two-week promotion runs through Sunday, July 16 and is open to registered guests who play any of the Monopoly Balloon Cash machines. At the conclusion of the event on July 16, Mr. Monopoly – aka Rich Uncle Pennybags – and his famous top hat will make a special appearance, along with Yaamava’ Resort & Casino Team Members, executives and slot influencers to celebrate the players that pass GO and collect $200 – or more!

“Monopoly  games have been a long-standing favorite of the players,” said Rodney Villhard, Vice President of Slot Operations at Yaamava’ Resort & Casino. “We’re enthusiastic to host the launch event to celebrate our players, the world-premiere of this game and our partnerships with Hasbro and Light & Wonder.”

Yaamava’ Resort & Casino at San Manuel has a longstanding relationship with Light & Wonder and will be the first resort in California to have Monopoly Balloon Cash exclusively for a limited time.
