Lawsuit filed against Euro Games Technology Ltd.

Gumpoldskirchen, October 2016 – NOVOMATIC AG has filed a lawsuit with the Berlin District Court against Euro Game Technology Ltd. (EGT), headquartered in Sofia, Bulgaria, as well as its German sales partner D-Systems GmbH, headquartered in Hanover. NOVOMATIC has filed an action for discontinuance of the further sale of certain slot games offered by Euro Game Technology and is demanding compensation for damages. 

The lawsuit is based on the fact that in NOVOMATIC’s view, several games offered by Euro Game Technology Ltd. systematically and unfairly use essential elements (including the reel strips) of well-established NOVOMATIC games. Specifically, the games in question are “Ultimate Hot”, “Olympus Glory”, “Flaming Hot”, “5 Dazzling Hot”, “Lucky Hot” and “Extremely Hot”. Similar legal actions are currently being prepared in other countries.
