AGS Interactive Focuses on Rakin’ Bacon!® Momentum, Product Expansion, Four SBC Award Nominations at SBC Summit Americas 2026

AGSi, the interactive division of global gaming leader AGS, is looking at the future with a simple message: increased investment in product is fueling a stronger pipeline and bigger franchise moments for operators. 

During SBC Summit Americas, held June 9–11, 2026, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the division will highlight how they’re building up their product management department, focusing on providing relevant holiday-related content operators want, keeping the momentum of its flagship Rakin’ Bacon!® franchise rolling with new game releases, expanding omnichannel activations and exclusive partnerships, and showcasing the new Cash Cow game franchise.

In March, AGS announced the appointment of Brett Jackson, Vice President of Product Management – Interactive to lead new initiatives with his blend of deep industry knowledge and world-class technology expertise. With Jackson’s appointment, AGSi will have the power to lock in on creating a broader product team while partnering with cross-functional teams to deliver the impactful, intuitive solutions AGS strives to provide.

The team is excited to introduce two games based on feedback from operators’ surrounding holiday-related content. America’s Blackjack – an American themed blackjack game – releases June 2, while Liberty Nudge – a Fourth of July/American holiday-themed game featuring fireworks, a red, white and blue color pallet, and the successful “nudge” mechanic – releases to market June 9.

Building on the momentum of the successful 2025 Rakin’ Bacon! Jackpots “Bring Home the Bacon” omnichannel campaign with BetMGM – the first third-party game ever to launch simultaneously online and on-property at BetMGM – AGS and BetMGM recently announced an expanded partnership introducing new Rakin’ Bacon! Triple Oink™ titles online. BetMGM will have exclusive access to Rakin’ Bacon! Triple Oink Soda Fountain Fortunes and Triple Oink San Shen Zhu, available on BetMGM and Borgata Online Casino. A third title, Rakin’ Bacon! Fu Zhu Bao Bao, is scheduled to launch online with BetMGM on July 2, 2026. AGS’ omnichannel strategy will continue into late June with a large-scale Rakin’ Bacon! Triple Oink event at MGM Grand Detroit, mirroring the success of its previous Jackpots activation. 

As AGS connects with operators and partners at SBC Summit Americas, the company will also spotlight the Cash Cow franchise, where the brand will be featured as part of AGS’ broader interactive portfolio plan. Attendees will gain an early look at how the franchise is evolving, including a preview of the Cash Cow 3-pot game, scheduled to launch in August 2026.

The Company is also thrilled to be shortlisted in four categories at the SBC Awards Americas 2026: Casino Supplier of the Year, Employer of the Year, Game of the Year, and Industry Innovation of the Year. These nominations follow several recent accolades, including the 10th consecutive year being named a Best and Brightest Companies to Work For in the Nation, a spot on the 2026 USA TODAY Top Workplaces USA list, shortlisted for SBC Awards Europe for Casino Supplier of the Year and ERG B2B Awards Team Achievement Award for Omnichannel.

AGS will be at SBC Summit Americas 2026 in Meeting Room 12.
