Wind Creek Bethlehem led this segment with $239.9 million in revenue, followed by Parx Casino at $196.4 million.\n\nThe data shows that while online segments are expanding, land based gaming continues to represent a substantial share of total revenue, even as growth remains limited or negative in certain categories.\n\nVideo Gaming Terminals and Fantasy Sports Results\n\nRevenue from video gaming terminals installed at truck stops increased by 0.55% to $41.6 million. The number of operating VGT locations rose to 75, compared with 73 a year earlier.\n\nFantasy sports contests generated $18.0 million in revenue, representing a 5.79% decline from the previous fiscal year. DraftKings remained the largest fantasy sports operator in the state with $12.48 million in revenue, followed by FanDuel with $3.08 million.\n\nAlthough these segments account for a smaller portion of overall gaming revenue, they form part of the diversified structure of Pennsylvania\u2019s regulated market.\n\nOur Assessment\n\nPennsylvania\u2019s fiscal year 2025-26 results show total regulated gaming revenue exceeding $7 billion for the first time, with record tax collections of $3.09 billion. Growth was primarily driven by iGaming and sports wagering, both of which reached new highs. At the same time, retail slots remained stable and table games declined modestly. The figures highlight the increasing weight of online gambling within the state\u2019s overall gaming revenue mix, while land based operations continue to contribute significant absolute revenue levels.\n\n"},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/en\/news\/pennsylvania-gaming-revenue-7-billion-fy-2025-26\/","url":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/en\/news\/pennsylvania-gaming-revenue-7-billion-fy-2025-26\/","name":"Pennsylvania Gaming Revenue Hits $7 Billion","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/en\/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/en\/news\/pennsylvania-gaming-revenue-7-billion-fy-2025-26\/#primaryimage"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/en\/news\/pennsylvania-gaming-revenue-7-billion-fy-2025-26\/#primaryimage"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/pennsylvania-gaming-revenue-7-billion-fy-2025-26.jpg","datePublished":"2026-07-20T17:05:22+02:00","description":"Pennsylvania gaming revenue reached $7.01 billion in fiscal year 2025-26, driven by record iGaming and sports betting growth.","inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/en\/news\/pennsylvania-gaming-revenue-7-billion-fy-2025-26\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/en\/news\/pennsylvania-gaming-revenue-7-billion-fy-2025-26\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/pennsylvania-gaming-revenue-7-billion-fy-2025-26.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/pennsylvania-gaming-revenue-7-billion-fy-2025-26.jpg","width":1408,"height":736,"caption":"Capitol building with shield, rising dollar bar chart, smartphone displaying stadium and upward arrow on blue background"},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/en\/news\/pennsylvania-gaming-revenue-7-billion-fy-2025-26\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/en\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Pennsylvania Gaming Revenue Tops $7 Billion in FY 2025-26"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/en\/#website","url":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/en\/","name":"Kryptocasinos.com","description":"","inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/en\/#organization","name":"Kryptocasinos.com","url":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/en\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/en\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/kryptocasinos-com-logo.svg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/kryptocasinos-com-logo.svg","width":109,"height":34,"caption":"Kryptocasinos.com"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.kryptocasinos.com\/en\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"},"sameAs":["https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/kryptocasinoscomm\/"],"description":"Explore the best crypto casinos for %%currentyear%%.
