The classic comic created by Lee Falk in 1936, The Phantom, returns to casino floors in an all-new slot game.
On Thursday this week, the leading supplier of casino games and technology, Aristocrat Gaming, in collaboration with King Features Syndicate, a unit of Hearst, announced that The Phantom makes his comeback in a slot game featured on Aristocrat's latest hardware, The Baron Upright.
The Phantom is back in a new slot game
The legendary comic book crimefighter invites the players on an action-packed adventure where popular mechanics and big prizes await.
Undoubtedly, fans of The Phantom and slots aficionados are going to like the new game, which brings fan-favorite features like free spins, Hold & Spin, as well as bonus meters.
To elevate the excitement even further, the all-new The Phantom slot game grants players a chance to win a grand progressive jackpot, which starts at $10,000.
Ahead of its 90th anniversary, The Phantom franchise seeks to engage with new fans.
The release of the new slot game comes at a busy moment for the franchise, considering the recent launch of a new original video game, The Phantom, from Art of Play Interactive.
Moreover, Mad Cave Studios is expected to release a new comic series based on The Phantom, with its debut expected next month.
This summer, Aristocrat Leisure's Regulated Money Gaming business, Aristocrat Interactive, extended its collaboration with the delivery of cashless systems for Cliff Castle Casino Hotel in Arizona.

Using The Baron Upright cabinet, The Phantom slot game joins a growing portfolio of hit games that use the same innovative cabinet, such as Lucky Looters Leprechaun and Devil, Bao Zhu Zhao Fu Ignite Blue Prosperity and Red Prosperity and Buffalo Gold Cash Collection.
Jolie Roberts, King Features' Vice President of Domestic Licensing, commented: "Teaming up with Aristocrat Gaming on this launch let us reimagine how a brand like The Phantom comes to life in the casino space."
Finally, Roberts pointed out: "With The Phantom front and center, we’re proud to celebrate the legacy of The Ghost Who Walks and give fans a bold new way to connect with the brand through visually striking gameplay."
