Players hit jackpot on Aristocrat's Buffalo Grand slot four times

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Players are winning big on Buffalo Grand, the larger-than-life video slot game from Aristocrat. In fact, four different players hit the grand progressive jackpot in just two weeks for a combined total of more than $2.64 million.

The recent string of jackpots began on January 23, when a player hit the Buffalo Grand top progressive jackpot for $502,217.57 at Inn of the Mountain Gods Resort & Casino in Mescalero, New Mexico. Later that same day, another lucky player won $784,729.93 at Pechanga Resort & Casino in Temecula, California.

Then, the top jackpot was hit for $796,132.28 at The Palazzo Resort Hotel Casino in Las Vegas on Jan. 26, and just a few days later on Feb. 2, another player won on Buffalo Grand at Pechanga Resort & Casino, this time for $552,934.90.

“At Aristocrat, our goal is to create great games that will help operators make the big play with their customers. We certainly achieved that with the original Buffalo, and we are very pleased with the positive response players continue to have to the entire Buffalo franchise, including Buffalo Grand,” said Aristocrat Vice President of Gaming Operations Siobhan Lane.

Buffalo Grand has all of the fun of the original player-favorite Buffalo as well as new features such as a 4X5X5X5X4 reel set, the opportunity to win jackpots, jackpot multipliers and up to 50 free games.

Buffalo Grand is larger than life in Aristocrat's award-winning Arc Double cabinet, named to Casino Journal's Top 20 Most Innovative Gaming Technology Products list and to CEM's 2015 Top 10 Slot Floor Technology Awards.

Aristocrat's original Buffalo was recently named the top performing casino-owned game in the 4Q CY15 EILERS-FANTINI Quarterly Slot Survey, the gaming industry's largest slot survey.
