Scientific Games wins North american Lottery Game of the Year and iLottery Game of the Year. Oct 22, 2026, 10:40 ET Massachusetts State Lottery $500,000 FRENZY and Pennsylvania Lottery THE GUS(R) GAME SHOW Games Recognized for Innovation and Performance ATLANTA, Oct. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Scientific Games won Lottery Game of the Year and iLottery Game of the Year in the Gaming Intelligence North America Awards 2026 for games created in collaboration with two U.S. lotteries. The global lottery company's $500,000 FRENZY instant scratch game innovated with the Massachusetts State Lottery was named Lottery Game of the Year, and THE GUS(R) GAME SHOW online game created with the Pennsylvania Lottery earned iLottery Game of the Year. Since 2015, the Gaming Intelligence Awards recognize the operators and suppliers that are shaping regulated gaming markets. A specific lottery category was added in 2026, with a full list of winners recently published. "Winning Lottery Game of the Year and iLottery Game of the Year demonstrates how collaboration can translate new ideas into strong performance in support of lottery beneficiary programs. These awards recognize the game design, player insights and creative storytelling that we put into building games that connect with players and deliver results for lotteries," said Matt Lynch, Chief Player Experience Officer for Scientific Games. "We congratulate the Massachusetts State Lottery and Pennsylvania Lottery on these shared achievements. From a fresh approach to retail scratch game prize structures to a new digital stage for a beloved lottery mascot, these games show what we can accomplish together." Created by Scientific Games with the Massachusetts State Lottery, $500,000 FRENZY brings together the science of prize structure design and the art of retail presentation. The $50 scratch game spotlights its namesake $500,000 prize, with 50 top prizes available to players. The prize structure thrives as a high-energy, win-often experience that complements - rather than competes with - a traditional top-prize design, giving players two distinct ways to engage at the same price point. Fluorescent and premium metallic silver inks on holographic give $500,000 FRENZY a distinctive presence at retail. The game features Fast Cash instant wins of $100, $500 and $2,000, multipliers up to 500X, 10 second-chance drawings and up to 38 chances to win. Launched May 12, 2026, it generated more than $108 million in sales in less than 16 weeks. Retail sales for the Massachusetts State Lottery support the Commonwealth's cities and towns in the form of unrestricted local aid, while online sales support a grant program for early childhood education and care. For the Pennsylvania Lottery, Scientific Games rolled out the red carpet for GUS. The bespoke eInstant game gives the Lottery's recognizable mascot his first starring role in an online lottery game, extending his adventures to the Pennsylvania iLottery experience. Created in partnership with the Pennsylvania Lottery, the game stays true to the mascot's personality while introducing a colorful, high-energy game show setting designed for online play. Launching April 21, 2026, THE GUS GAME SHOW delivered sales performance 50% above index in its first month and remained more than 25% above index after 17 weeks. Unique player numbers also remained 10% to 20% above benchmark after 17 weeks. The Pennsylvania Lottery supports programs that benefit older Pennsylvanians. Currently serving 150 government-regulated lotteries in 50 countries, Scientific Games is the world's largest lottery games creator, producer and manager and a global leader in lottery and sports betting technology systems, digital lottery games, mobile apps, and player loyalty programs.

Scientific Games receives WLA Level 2 information and security management certification for U.S. Instant game production facility. Oct 19, 2026, 10:30 ET Company Reinforces Commitment to Security and Integrity Across Global Lottery Operations ATLANTA, Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Scientific Games announces that its U.S. instant scratch game production facility, which serves nearly every U.S. state lottery, has achieved Level 2 certification to the World Lottery Association Security Control Standard 2024. The world's largest lottery scratch game production facility, located at Scientific Games global headquarters in metro Atlanta, has maintained its WLA security certification and is now fully compliant with WLA-SCS:2024 Level 2, the highest certification level for lottery suppliers under the standard. With major scratch game facilities in the U.S. and UK achieving WLA-SCS:2024 Level 2 certification, Scientific Games continues to strengthen security across its global instant game production operations. The Level 2 standard specifies the practices required for an effective security management structure to maintain the integrity, availability and confidentiality of information vital to a lottery provider's secure operation. "Holding our instant scratch game production technology and processes to these rigorous international security standards is important to Scientific Games. Our lottery customers and their players are assured that our products are made using the absolute highest worldwide industry standards," said Andrew Jackson, VP of Corporate Responsibility for Scientific Games. The certification confirms that Scientific Games has implemented a comprehensive framework to manage risks related to information and operations security in accordance with internationally recognized best practices and principles. The WLA-SCS:2024 Level 2 standard combines ISO/IEC 27001:2022 information security requirements developed by the International Organization for Standardization and the International Electrotechnical Commission, with lottery-specific security and integrity controls established by the WLA. Both are independent organizations that set consistent standards, benchmarks and testing that ensure security and reliability, build trust and keep people and products safe. ISO/IEC 27001:2022 is the world's best-known standard for information security management systems. Scientific Games first earned the WLA Security Control Standard certification for its facilities in 2011. Certification requires an extensive independent audit, annual surveillance audits and full recertification every three years. Maintaining this certification demonstrates that the company's operations continue to meet independently assessed industry standards as requirements evolve. The company's UK instant scratch game facility achieved WLA-SCS:2024 Level 2 certification in 2026. Other Scientific Games operations achieving the certification in 2026 include the Scientific Games National Logistics Centre in Warrington, UK serving The National Lottery, the SG Studios digital game development center in Jersey, Channel Islands and the company's lottery retailer technology facility in Ireland. Scientific Games has also achieved international certifications for operational best practices, including Quality Management Systems (ISO 9001), Environmental Management (ISO 14001), Occupational Health and Safety (ISO 45001), as well as Anti-Bribery (ISO 37001) and the WLA's Responsible Gaming certification.
