Wild Casino

The local government of Nagasaki has chosen Casinos Austria as its integrated resort partner. Casino Austria received 697 points in the request-for-proposal process. Mohegan Sun-Oshidori International came second with 682.8 points, while Parkview Group came in last with 667.1.

Oshidori International is contesting the IR bid process in Nagasaki. The operator wants changes to the rules and regulations. Nagasa Prefecture says it conducted the process with fairness and integrity. It chose Casinos Austria as an IR partner.

Nagasaki Prefecture will begin accepting IR applications in October. Four regions are vying for the three available licenses: Nagasaki, Wakayama, Osaka, and Yokohama. Osaka officials have selected an MGM Resorts-led consortium to develop its casino offering. Wakaysama has backed a $4.3bn plan from Canadian private equity management firm Clairvest Group.
