Aristocrat’s new Walking Dead poker machine has proven itself to be a huge hit among land-based casino players. The game was only recently released, and it is already making a big impact in the brick-and-mortar gambling market. When the game was first previewed at gaming conferences in 2013, casino operators were instantly intrigued and players were eager to give The Walking Dead a spin.
The buzz carried over into the new year, as several casino operators pre-ordered the title so that they could offer The Walking Dead to players as soon as the game was released. Now that the highly-anticipated pokie has hit the gaming floor, players are flocking to it. "The Walking Dead Slot Game has been an instant, incredible success.
Operators and players everywhere are responding very positively to the game," says Dallas Orchard, Aristocrat’s Vice President of Gaming Operations Dallas Orchard. "We have had a lot of fun working with AMC on this project, and we wish them great success with the premiere this Sunday and with the new season."

Until recently, Aristocrat had no worked with licensed brands, so the decision to licence The Walking Dead as a pokie was risky but wise. The Walking Dead is one of the most popular television shows ever, and it has a vast following. As such, it makes for a poker machine that will appeal to a wide range of players.
We are eagerly awaiting the release of The Walking Dead in the online casino world. Aristocrat has yet to announce when the game will be available as an online pokie, but we hope that it will be soon!
