According to Accel Entertainment, Century Gaming has installed 51 new gaming terminals at Northern Winz Casino II in Montana, bringing its total deployment with the Chippewa Cree Tribe to 100 machines. The subsidiary completed the hardware upgrade in July 2026 to replace legacy equipment that had reached the end of its operational lifespan.
Terminal Expansion and Platform Integration
The newly installed machines operate on Century Gaming’s proprietary systems platform, joining the 49 terminals already active at the tribe’s primary Northern Winz Casino location. The installation aligns both facilities under a unified technical infrastructure and restores full terminal capacity at the second venue.Management Perspective
Accel Entertainment CEO Andy Rubenstein stated that the tribe’s decision to extend the partnership reflects the performance of the company’s equipment and support services. Calvin Jilot, tribal business committee member and acting general manager, added that the prior deployment demonstrated the system’s capabilities. "When we decided it was time to upgrade Northern Winz Casino II, there was no question who we wanted as our partner," Jilot said.The Montana expansion follows Accel Entertainment’s April launch of live table games at Fairmount Park Casino & Racing in Illinois. The company subsequently reported its highest first-quarter adjusted EBITDA in May.
