A real-time environmental model of a plurality of shared virtual environments (SVEs) is provides, each SVE including a plurality of virtual persons and a plurality of virtual gaming devices. First display data corresponding to a first SVE is transmitted to a first player device, including user display data to render a portion of the first SVE based on a virtual orientation of the first player device and a virtual location of the first player in the first SVE. Second display data corresponding to a second SVE is transmitted to a second player device, including user display data that causes a display device in the second player device to render a portion of the second SVE, including a virtual person associated with the first player, based on a virtual orientation of the second player device and a virtual location of the second player in the second SVE.

Gaming systems and methods that provides zero, one or more social media benefits to a player in addition to any awards provided to that player in association with a play of a game.

Gaming system and method for offering social media activity in association with wagering

Gaming systems and methods for facilitating funds to and from an electronic gaming machine via a mobile device.

Gaming system and method for utilizing a mobile device to fund a gaming session

Gaming systems and methods that independently generate wager increases and associated wager increase displays for plays of a primary wagering game.

Independently generated wager increases and associated wager increase displays

Gaming systems and methods that utilize the results of one or more outcomes of one or more sporting events for a tournament. The gaming systems and methods display a video stream of a sporting event (such as a historical sporting event) for the tournament and determine the results of one or more plays of a tournament game at least in part based on such outcomes.

Tournaments based on sporting event outcomes

Systems and methods that utilize an electronic gaming machine to stream one or more events occurring in association with the electronic gaming machine to zero, one or more interested parties whom are remote from the electronic gaming machine.

System and method for streaming wagering games

Systems and methods that enable different users to obtain different outcomes in association with the same game streamed by a live streaming platform.

Individualized outcomes on wagers placed on a streamed game in a streaming environment

Systems and methods that synchronize the presentation of events on a client device with events occurring on a streaming device and being streamed to the client device by a live streaming platform.

Provided are systems for providing ticket and cashless discount offers. As system includes a processor circuit that receives, from a player, a request for a cashout that corresponds to a cash balance held by the player at the end of a gaming session. A cashout bonus status that corresponds to the player and to the gaming session is determined. A bonus portion that is based on the cashout bonus status and the cash balance is determined. The system transmits an offer message to the player. The offer message includes an offer to allocate the bonus portion and the cash balance to be spent with a predefined vendor that is associated with a game provider. If the player accepts the offer, the bonus portion and at least a portion of the cash balance are transferred to an account that is associated with the player and the predefined vendor.

Systems and methods for ticket and cashless merchant discount offers

An electronic gaming machine according to some embodiments includes a processing circuit, a display screen coupled to the processing circuit, and a transceiver coupled to the processing circuit and providing wireless communications with an augmented reality (AR) display device that is separate from the electronic gaming machine. The processing circuit displays a game element in a first screen area of the display screen, and transmits, via the transceiver, screen location data to the AR display device identifying a second screen area on the display screen, other than the first screen area, that is available for the AR display device to overlay AR graphics in a field of view of a user of the AR display device without overlaying the game element displayed in the first screen area of the display screen.

Augmented reality integration in electronic gaming machines

A system configured to manage progressive pools can include a processor circuit and a memory coupled to the processor circuit. The memory includes machine-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor circuit, cause the system to perform operations. The operations include determining to cease operation of a first progressive game on a first electronic gaming machines ('EGM'). The first progressive game can be associated with a first progressive pool. The operations can further include, allocating a portion of the first progressive pool to a second progressive pool associated with a second progressive game based on a characteristic of the first progressive game and a characteristic of the second progressive game. The operations further include, responsive to determining to cease operation of the first progressive game, transmitting a message to the first EGM, the message including instructions to cease operation of the first progressive game.

Automated progressive pool management for gaming

A method for establishing communication between a portable electronic device and an electronic gaming machine within a gaming environment includes receiving wireless signal data transmitted from the portable electronic device, determining a wireless signal strength relative to the electronic gaming machine based on the wireless signal data, and based on a determination that the wireless signal strength relative to the electronic gaming machine has increased, exceeded a predetermined threshold level, and leveled off for an amount of time exceeding a time threshold after becoming stronger, initiating a wireless communication link between the electronic gaming machine and the portable electronic device.

Directional wireless communication

A gaming device includes a processor circuit and a memory including machine-readable instructions. When executed by the processor circuit, the instructions cause the processor circuit to access a game software package comprising a plurality of configurations of a wagering game. The instructions further cause the processor circuit to determine whether the gaming device is authorized to access a first subset of configurations of the wagering game. The instructions further cause the processor circuit to, based on the determination that the gaming device is authorized to access the first subset of configurations of the wagering game, enable play of the first subset of configurations of the wagering game at the gaming device.

Consolidated game packages for electronic gaming machines

A computer-implemented method of operating a gaming device includes providing, by a processor circuit of the gaming device, video of a sporting event to a display device of the gaming device. The method further includes determining, by the processor circuit, whether a wager has been selected from among a set of wagers which satisfies a wager requirement for continuing providing the video. The method further includes, in response to a determination that the wager requirement for continuing providing the video has not been satisfied, suspending, by the processor circuit, providing the video of the sporting event to the display device.

Providing live sporting event video at gaming devices
