Atlantic City’s first $2 million Dragon Link progressive slot machines by Aristocrat Gaming are now live at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.
Just this past week, an individual walked off with $1,010,344 laying a Dragon Link Peace & Long Life slot by Aristocrat Gaming at the Pechanga Resort Casino in Temecula, California..
These slots appear to be the real deal.
The two machines at the Hard Rock AC offer one of the largest jackpots found in any Atlantic City casino. The pair of side-by-side $2 million progressive slot machines are located in the casino’s high-limit area and feature the themes Dragon Link Golden Century and Dragon Link Happy & Prosperous.
Displaying a $1 denomination, the two high-limit machines are linked and configured for $50 minimum bets and $3,125 maximum bets. Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City offers Dragon Link progressive slots with potential jackpots of $2 million, $1 million, $200,000 and $100,000.
“Dragon Link slot machines by Aristocrat Gaming are among the busiest games on our casino floor, and these new, $2 million progressive jackpot slot machines add even more excitement for players at our many banks of Dragon Link slots,” said George Goldhoff, President of Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City. “We are proud to be the first casino in Atlantic City to offer these $2 million progressive jackpot slots, and we expect them to become quick favorites of many of our casino guests.”
Dragon Link-branded slot machines continue to outperform slot machines on casino floors throughout the world. Dragon Link earned the “Top Performing Proprietary Branded Game” award at the 2022 EKG Slot Awards Show in Las Vegas.
Dragon Link machines (including Peace and Long Life) usually have:
- Hold (house edge): ~8% to 12% (varies by casino setting)
- Average bet: Let’s assume $1–$5 per spin for a typical player
- Typical RTP: ~88% to 92%
Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City features an award-winning gaming floor that offers 2,298 slots, including a private high-limit slot salon, plus 128 table games of poker, blackjack, baccarat, craps, roulette and more.
In general, industry surveys show Hard Rock AC typically returns around ~90.6%–91.2% RTP (return-to-player) for all slots.
