Andamiro Co. Ltd. (Seoul, Korea) through its U.S. division, Andamiro USA Corp. (Gardena, CA), inked a licensing deal with World Wrestling Entertainment Inc. last year to create a new interactive redemption game. The game's design, cabinet artwork, sound package and trading cards were approved earlier this year.

Andamiro's WWE Superstar Rumble brings one of the world's most powerful brands to the out-of-home entertainment space. When it comes to measuring up on TV, on social media, at live events and in many CPG channels, WWE is a clear leader. Here are some metrics:
"What a tremendous brand and company! The superstars of the WWE are real-life superheroes to many,” said Drew Maniscalco, Andamiro USA's president of sales and marketing. "Together with the WWE, Andamiro is bringing something special to the amusement industry – something that will deliver for operators. There have been more than a dozen wrestling coin-op videogames and pinballs, some licensed, dating back 30 years or more, but Andamiro has the first title for the highly competitive redemption entertainment category."
Andamiro's new redemption game will make its official debut during November's IAAPA Attractions Expo in Orlando, FL. It's expected to be available to operators after the trade show.
SMACKDOWN! WWE Superstar Rumble rolls out with an eight-piece collectible card set. Wrestler cards won by players can be saved as a collectible or redeemed for points. Shown here are all eight cards with The Rock's front and back. The Undertaker, whose real name is Mark William Calaway, is the special "legend" card.
