The Star Entertainment Group has announced that all electronic gaming machines (EGMs) and electronic table games (ETGs) at its three properties are now back in operation and fully functional.
The announcement comes after the company temporarily suspended its electronic gaming operations earlier this week, following performance issues identified during a system upgrade intended to enhance the transition to cashless gaming.
‘As previously announced, the decision to turn off all EGMs and ETGs was to ensure compliance with relevant regulations, and to maintain the company’s commitment to safer gambling procedures,’ Star Entertainment stated.
The group has been facing a shrinking premium gaming market and regulatory scrutiny, including a second NSW inquiry into the suitability of the company’s flagship Sydney casino to hold a gaming license due on July 31st.
The Star Entertainment has now confirmed that the systemic performance issues have been rectified, and all EGMs and ETGs in its Sydney, Gold Coast, and Brisbane properties have been progressively turned back on and are once again operational.
