Newly-sold pinball company, American Pinball, has signed a deal with Planetary Pinball Supply to ‘reimagine’ a series of classic Williams/Bally pinball titles.
Under the agreement, American Pinball will have access to up to seven Williams or Bally game designs which will be updated using modern technology and enhanced rulesets.
The game titles covered by the agreement haven’t been revealed yet, but American Pinball will become the third company currently making modernised versions of Williams and Bally titles, along with Pedretti Gaming and Chicago Gaming. Previously, Dutch Pinball and Haggis Pinball also licensed Williams or Bally titles to create updated versions of The Machine: Bride of Pinbot and Fathom respectively.
American Pinball say these ‘reimagined’ games will be part of their portfolio of products, alongside their original titles and upcoming new licensed games. They haven’t committed to a production timescale for the ‘reimagined’ games or indicated where they will fit into their product mix.
Here’s how American Pinball and Planetary Pinball made the announcement.
We will bring you more details of this agreement, including the list of seven titles covered, just as soon as we get them right here at Pinball News.
