Genting-operated Resorts World New York City has added 1,400 slot machines on its reopened first-floor gaming area. The addition increases the property’s slot inventory to 3,900 as it continues the phased rollout of New York City’s first full-scale commercial casino.
The operator said its slot machines generated more than $230 million in gross gaming revenue (GGR) during the first 11 weeks of commercial casino operations.
Separately, New York State Gaming Commission data show that live table games generated approximately $87 million over the period, taking the property’s total commercial casino GGR to about $317.3 million.
“With these 1,400 new games, we will be able to accommodate more patrons and generate even more in taxes for the state,” Robert DeSalvio, president of Genting Americas East, said in a company release.
The reopened floor includes a Dragon Den gaming area featuring 114 Aristocrat games, including 48 Dragon Link units. The zone also offers a $1 million progressive jackpot.
Resorts World New York City previously operated as a video lottery terminal facility at Aqueduct Racetrack in Queens. The New York State Gaming Commission approved its commercial casino license in December 2025, alongside licenses for Bally’s Bronx and Hard Rock Metropolitan Park.
The property ended its video lottery operations on April 27th and began operating as a commercial casino on April 28th, initially offering more than 2,500 slots and over 240 live tables.
Under rates approved by the regulator, Resorts World’s slot and electronic table game revenue is taxed at 56 percent, while table game revenue is subject to a 30 percent rate.
The casino rollout is part of a planned $5.5 billion expansion. By 2030, Resorts World intends to operate a 350,000-square-foot gaming floor with 6,000 slots and 800 live tables, alongside 2,000 hotel rooms, a 7,000-seat entertainment venue and more than 10 acres of public green space.
