EGT’s back-to-back SiGMA wins aren’t just luck—they’re a calculated play for market dominance. The company’s been doubling down on Asian-themed slots, and these awards are proof it’s working. But can they hold off competitors who’ll soon copy their formula?

Official line: EGT won Best Land-Based Game Feature at SiGMA Asia Awards 2026 for the second year running. The prize went to their multi-level progressive jackpot game Sheng Sheng Bu Xi, honored at the June 1 ceremony. Mariana Manchina, EGT Philippines director, noted the win follows last year’s success with Zhao Cai Shuang Yu—proof their Asian-themed products resonate with players and operators. Industry subtext: This isn’t a fluke. EGT’s targeting Asian markets where land-based gaming still grows fast, and these wins solidify their position.

Official details: Sheng Sheng Bu Xi has two titles (Bonus Boom and Bonus Craze), four levels of play, special symbols, free spins, multipliers, and runs on the Exciter IV platform. It works with Supreme, General, and Phoenix series cabinets and is already in global gaming spots with strong performance. Industry subtext: Compatibility with multiple cabinets is key. Operators don’t need new hardware to add the game—so adoption is quick, and EGT gains market reach without extra costs.

EGT’s Asian-themed slot strategy is locking in operators who value low switching costs and high player engagement. Expect their land-based slot market share in Asia to rise by 5 to 7 percentage points by the end of 2026.
