International Game Technology (IGT) has announced that its digital division, IGT PlayDigital, will launch Tiger and Dragon Cash on Reels in Ontario, Canada, alongside several U.S. jurisdictions, including Connecticut, Delaware, Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island. This release marks the first online appearance of the popular land-based title, extending its reach to a new digital audience across North America.
The company described the rollout as a milestone in its strategy to bridge its successful retail gaming titles with online platforms, offering players a consistent and seamless experience.
Expanding the Tiger and Dragon Experience
Tiger and Dragon Cash on Reels mirrors the success of its physical counterpart, featuring the signature Cash on Reels mechanic and vivid East Asian-inspired graphics. The slot presents players with a dynamic 5Ć3 grid, medium-to-high volatility, and 243 ways to win. Central to the experience are three bonus rounds ā the Tiger Bonus, Dragon Bonus, and the combined Tiger and Dragon Bonus ā each introducing unique layers of gameplay.
The Mystery Gong symbol triggers the Cash on Reels feature, awarding random credit values across the reels, which are tallied from left to right. With an RTP of 96% and a maximum win of 2,000x the bet, the game caters to a broad spectrum of players seeking high volatilityĀ and visual immersion.
The Tiger Bonus round functions as a Lock & Respin feature, while the Dragon Bonus expands the reels to a 5Ć8 grid for a single intense spin. The combined feature blends both modes for an elevated experience, offering a chance to unlock the Grand Jackpot when all 39 gongs fill the grid. Adding the Up Arrow mechanic further enhances the excitement, increasing the gong prize values during play.
Visually, Tiger and Dragon Cash on Reels showcases golden tones, ornate symbols, and smooth animations that complement its rhythmic sound design. The inclusion of authentic gongs and percussive effects amplifies its East Asian theme, creating an atmosphere that feels both familiar and fresh for fans of IGTās previous Cash on Reels titles.
IGTās Award-Winning Momentum
The launch of Tiger and Dragon Cash on Reels follows a strong year for IGT and its digital division. The company was recently recognized at the 2025 Global Gaming Awards Americas, where it won two major honors: āCasino Services Supplier of the Yearā and āDigital Product of the Year.ā
