Atronic has signed a three-year licensing agreement with MGM Consumer Products to develop, manufacture and distribute slot machines based on content from the hugely successful “Stargate SG-1” and “Stargate Atlantis” series on American television.

The first Stargate games will be unveiled this fall, Atronic said, and will eventually feature a broad range of video-linked, video stand-alone and reel products.

Atronic Americas COO Ken Bossingham says the company is “thrilled” to add the series to its library of licensed products.

“We are going to build on the popularity of the TV series by bringing the excitement and intrigue of the shows to the casino floor.”

“Stargate SG-1” ran for 10 seasons. “Stargate Atlantis,” a spin-off of the original series, was The People’s Choice Award winner for “Favorite Sci-Fi” program in 2007 and currently is in production on its fifth season.

MGM Consumer Products manages Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studio’s retail and brand-development activities and the worldwide licensing and merchandising of MGM and United Artists characters, properties, and logos.
