The casino equipment and technology supplier introduced the Solstice 27 during the recent Global Gaming Expo, or G2E, in Las Vegas. The product was 1 of 2 new Solstice cabinet units presented by Konami Gaming at the event.

Konami said the Solstice 27 will include 2 27-inch displays and real-time gameplay events that interact with acrylic lighting built into the machine. The cabinet is also designed with enhanced spatial audio, bass-reflex technology, and an advanced chipset and graphics processing unit. 

Bull Blitz Rampage Set to Debut

Bull Blitz Rampage is also planned for release in the 4th quarter of 2026. The game expands on the original Bull Blitz series, which Konami Gaming said had been popular in the Australian market.

The new title includes a nested bonus, a wheel-spin feature, free games, and new events that are triggered by symbols. Konami said players who increase their wagers to a higher denomination may reduce the number of symbols needed to guarantee access to the hold-and-spin feature.

The launch of Bull Blitz Rampage will introduce the Solstice 27 cabinet with a game based on an existing Konami title. The supplier said the new game has generated industry attention ahead of its planned release.

Gerard Crosby, Konami Gaming’s senior vice president and chief games product officer, said Bull Blitz Rampage had created significant excitement within the industry. He said interest was supported by the existing popularity of the brand, trial data, and the response from casino customers during G2E.

The company did not provide an exact launch date within the 4th quarter. However, the target release schedule places the Bull Blitz Rampage debut before the end of 2026.

More Solstice 27 Games Planned

Konami Gaming has also prepared additional content for Solstice 27. Action Stacked Cash is scheduled for release during the final quarter of 2026.

The game includes the established Rawhide and African Diamond titles. It will feature cash-on-reels gameplay, triple-bonus and wheel-spin mechanics, as well as free-game events.

Another title, Power Panther, is scheduled for the 1st quarter of 2027. The game will include a nested bonus and is designed to use the Solstice 27 cabinet’s audio, animation, and lighting functions as part of the gameplay.

The planned titles will add to the game lineup after Bull Blitz Rampage launches on the new cabinet. Konami Gaming said the games are part of the content being developed for the Solstice 27 platform.

The new cabinet is intended to combine multiple display screens, lighting, sound, and graphics technology. Konami Gaming did not disclose pricing or identify the first casino markets where the Solstice 27 will be made available.

SuperNova Adds Large-Format Cabinet

Konami Gaming separately introduced Solstice SuperNova, a large-format addition to its Solstice cabinet range. The machine stands 11 ft, or 3.4 m, tall and uses a 75-inch C-curve display.

The cabinet can also include an optional 43-inch topper. Konami said Solstice SuperNova will be available for lease or sale and is also expected to launch in the 4th quarter of 2026.

The large-format cabinet will debut with Dragon’s Law Super Fortune. Crosby said that title, along with Bull Blitz Rampage, has seen strong demand based on customer response at G2E, incoming trial data, and existing brand recognition.
