Bluberi launches Beacon+ SoundWave to enhance slot machine sound
Bluberi announced Beacon+ SoundWave on October 28, 2026, in Las Vegas, Nevada. The company introduced the new banking solution that combines immersive audio, synchronized lighting and engaging game content to create a more dynamic experience for players and operators. Engineered around the power of sound, SoundWave brings winning moments to life across the bank and beyond.
The release describes SoundWave as a banking solution that cuts through competing visual attractions on casino floors. It draws players in with distinctive audio cues that celebrate key game events. The system is intended to create a lively anchor point that amplifies excitement and energy throughout the casino while giving operators a fresh bank-level attraction.
Hardware centers on the SoundWave bar. Audio is powered by Soen technology and paired with synchronized helix LED lighting. The system responds to key game instances, generating coordinated visual and audio moments constructed to draw attention and amplify wins for players at the bank.
SoundWave introduces Wintones, short audio stingers that punctuate important game outcomes. These effects highlight win celebrations, bonus events and jackpot wins. Each game also receives two additional custom sounds built around its specific mechanics and features to create recognizable moments for players.
“We believe SoundWave embodies how Bluberi is focusing on under-served market elements and illustrates why we feel vendor variety in essential in the North American market,” said Mike Brennan, Chief Product Officer. “We’re looking beyond individual games and cabinets to consider the entire bank solution and how it shapes the player experience. Our goal is to create solutions operators are excited to bring to their slot floors and that bring more energy throughout the casino.”
“SoundWave is designed to create a lively, fun anchor point on the casino floor, where winning moments come to life through the immersive sound of the Soen sound bar,” said Brennan.
“We like to refer to the idea that, ‘you don’t choose what you hear,’ because sound is always present on a visually overwhelming casino floor,” said Brennan. “SoundWave harnesses that power to create more excitement, more fun and more opportunities to broadcast wins.”
Beacon+ SoundWave launches with Reign of the Panther, Ashes to Riches and Imperial Lock. All future Bluberi core games will be SoundWave compatible, creating a growing library designed to take advantage of the player attraction.
Release materials showcase Reign of the Panther as the visual centerpiece of the new system, highlighting how the integrated audio and lighting transform the game’s presence on the slot floor.
