NOVOMATIC Africa Strategic Platform Transitions

Novomatic Africa, a pioneer in the gaming industry, is excited to share pivotal updates, underscoring our commitment to innovation and excellence in gaming experiences.

Phasing Out Coolfire™ II-s Platform:

In our continuous pursuit of staying at the forefront of technological advancements, Novomatic Africa has decided to gradually phase out the Coolfire™ II-s platform by 31.12.2024. Renowned for combining innovative gaming concepts with outstanding gameplay and leading-edge technology, the Coolfire™ II-s platform has been a cornerstone in delivering gripping graphics and an exceptional gaming experience. The proven international popularity of its games and multi-game editions further solidified its place in the gaming industry.

• Product Sales Discontinuation: As of 1.1.2025, NOVOMATIC AG will not sell new cabinets using the Coolfire™ II(s) platform anymore.
• Refurbished Sales: Refurbished cabinets and machines on stock will be sold using the Coolfire™ II(s) based on availability without any guarantees and/or liabilities of NOVOMATIC AG.

The Coolfire II-s platform has reached the maximum potential in terms of new development; however, support and assistance will be continued on current product offerings.

Why the Change?

This transition enables us to focus on delivering a more unified and efficient gaming experience and technology platform. While we acknowledge that change can be challenging, this decision is rooted in our dedication to maintaining the highest standards of technological advancement and innovation.

In keeping with the cutting-edge technology offered by Novomatic Africa, exciting new platforms and products are in the making to replace the Coolfire™ II-s platform gradually, such as the new range of COBRA platform game offerings featuring the popular Magic Games HD platform and others.

What to Expect:

• Gradual Transition: The phasing out of Coolfire™ II-s platform will occur gradually to ensure a smooth and seamless experience for our clients and partners.
• Support and Assistance: Our dedicated support team will be available to assist throughout this period, addressing any questions or concerns.

Our Commitment to You:

At Novomatic Africa, we highly value our partnerships, and our commitment to providing top-notch gaming solutions remains unwavering. This strategic shift is aimed at ensuring a more robust and future-ready gaming experience for all our stakeholders.
