“Since we first announced the deal with Gaumont to bring Narcos to the reels, the anticipation among players and our operator partners has been huge. We are confident that the game will more than live up to its lofty expectations and add an exciting new option to our unbeatable branded catalogue,” - Bryan Upton, NetEnt Director of Games.
Feel The Heat of Medellin
Narcos, a Gaumont Studios production, took the world by storm in 2015 as it unfolded the gritty story of the Pablo Escobar’s rise to power. The violent and engrossing story of how he stumbled into the filthy world of cocaine and the wealth and power it brought him was gripping entertainment.
Netent’s world-class design team have stayed true to the spirit of the series filling the screen with a dusty overheated Medellin vista, a spin button styled after the chamber of a six-shooter and filling our ears with a sultry soundtrack that is perfect for the setting.
The reels themselves are filled with characters from the show as the high-value symbols, including Pablo Escobar himself as one of the special bonus feature symbols. The Wilds are represented by replicas of the DEA badges and the Drive-By Feature literally has a would-be assassin firing from a moving muscle car. Even the Scatter symbol is represented by a classic car from the ’70s.
The overall tone of the game leans heavily on the design style of recent AAA console and computer games like the Grand Theft Auto series.
