Pennsylvania set a new record in gaming revenue, earning $6.8 billion in fiscal year 2025. This is up 10.7% from last year, mostly because of strong growth in online gaming, which brought in $2.8 billion. 

The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (PGCB) said the increase came from commercial casinos, online games, and sports betting.

Retail Slots and Table Games See Mixed Results

Retail slot machines remained the second highest contributor to revenue, bringing in $2.4 billion, though this represents a slight 0.6% decline year over year. Parx Casino led all operators with $374.7 million in retail slot revenue, down 0.1% from the previous year. Wind Creek Bethlehem and Rivers Casino Pittsburgh reported December 2025 retail slot revenues of $274.6 million and $258.4 million, representing 4.2% and 1.7% declines respectively.

For retail table games, revenue fell 1.3% to $925.4 million. However, Wind Creek Bethlehem posted a small increase of 1.3%, reaching $251.5 million, while Parx Casino also grew its table game revenue by 2.4% to $199.3 million. The data shows that while some traditional gaming types saw slight declines, others were able to maintain growth.

iGaming Leads the Growth

Pennsylvania’s iGaming sector was the main driver of the record-breaking revenue. The sector achieved a new fiscal year record with $2.8 billion in revenue. Hollywood Casino at Penn National generated the highest iGaming revenue among operators, growing 28.6% to $1.1 billion. Valley Forge Casino Resort also performed strongly, increasing iGaming revenue by 35.6% to $777.7 million. According to PGCB data, these gains were key to lifting the overall state gaming revenue to record levels.

Sports Wagering and Fantasy Contests Reflect Gains

Sports betting added $602.5 million to Pennsylvania’s total gaming revenue, up 18% from last year. Valley Forge Casino Resort led with $274.2 million, while Hollywood Casino at the Meadows had $168.1 million, growing 0.8 percent and 27.2 percent, respectively. Video gaming terminals (VGTs) made $41.5 million, down a tiny 0.1%, and fantasy contests brought in $19.2 million, up 2.7%. DraftKings led fantasy contests with just over $13 million, down slightly by 0.8%, while FanDuel earned $3.2 million, a drop of 6%.

The PGCB report underscores the changing landscape of Pennsylvania gaming, with online platforms and sports wagering playing an increasingly significant role. The strong performance in iGaming and sports betting helped offset modest declines in retail slots and table games. Hence, the stage is set for continued growth in the coming year.
