The superhero trend for poker machines has re-emerged. Years ago, Cryptologic developed an entire series based on Marvel Superheroes, which saw a great deal of success. The trend died out shortly, but now gaming developers are getting back into the spirit – and Aristocrat is one such designer.

Aristocrat’s Superman: The Movie pokies comes out at the perfect time, amidst all of the superhero blockbuster movie buzz. The Avengers was released in June and The Dark Knight Rises will hit theatres at the end of the month. So, now seems to be the perfect time to release a poker machine based on one of the world’s most famous superheroes.

Superman: The Movie is based on the 1978 Superman film, which sparked
mainstream interest in DC Comics. As such, the game will appeal to a wide range of players from across New Zealand and in other gaming markets. Not only will pokies fans enjoy the game, but so will movie buffs and comic book fans.

The game has seen its initial release in Las Vegas this month. We are excited for Aristocrat to bring Superman: The Movie pokies to local casinos and clubs across the country.
