Soon gamblers won’t need to rely on Lady Luck alone to win in Atlantic City.
Skill-based games are coming to Harrah’s, Caesars and Bally’s after the state Division of Gaming Enforcement gave approval late Wednesday night to GameCo, Inc. of New York to install the machines at casinos owned by Caesars Entertainment, according to the Associated Press.
The machines could arrive as soon as Monday, but will need three weeks of testing before the public gets a crack at them.
The goal is to lure a new breed of gamblers to the struggling resort city: people who grew up playing video games.
Atlantic City will be the first gaming destination in the country to get the games known as VGMs, Blaine Graboyes, the company’s CEO and co-founder told the Associated Press.
