The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (PGCB) has released the 20th edition of its Annual Report for the 2025-2026 fiscal year, detailing a record-setting year that generated $7.05 billion in overall gaming revenue.
The record revenue resulted in $3.1 billion in tax revenue for the Commonwealth, according to the PGCB. The annual report provides individual revenue figures across slot machines, table games, sports wagering, internet gaming, fantasy sports contests, and video gaming terminals (VGTs) at eligible truck stops.
Regulated gaming outlets
The PGCB was established in 2004 and currently regulates a wide range of gaming outlets across the state. According to the filing, the industry supports nearly 16,000 jobs at casinos in Pennsylvania.

| Sites for online casino-type games | 22 |
| Land-based casinos | 18 |

The state’s 18 land-based casinos consist of six racetrack (Category 1) casinos, five stand-alone (Category 2) casinos, two resort (Category 3) casinos, and five mini-casinos (Category 4).
The regulator also highlighted its awareness outreach efforts over the past year. The PGCB noted the launch of a new podcast, “Behind the Bets in PA,” intended to raise awareness about problem gambling, underage gambling, and the issue of leaving minors unattended to gamble.
