You’re going to need a bigger boat. Why? So that you will have room for Stern Pinball’s Jaws-themed pinball game! Stern Pinball’s latest machine takes pinballers to Amity Island as they take on the menacing Great White shark.
“You’re going to feel like you’re transported to Amity Island and you’re going to hunt sharks,” says Zachary Sharpe, director of marketing for Stern Pinball. “So if you’re a fan of Jaws, if you’re a fan of pinball, I mean this has it all.”
There are three editions of Jaws pinball: limited edition, premium, and pro. Each edition has fun, nostalgic features including a motorized shark fin target, “blood in the water” lighting effects, a Lookout Tower ramp, and more. With Stern Pinball’s Jaws game, players take on the role of Quint as he hunts down sharks by firing pinballs.

The game also features custom recordings of actor Richard Dreyfuss and John Williams’ iconic movie score.
“The proof’s in the pudding,” Sharpe says. “It’s really unique and unlike any other pinball machine that’s ever been created. Fans of pinball, your mind’s going to be blown. Fans of Jaws, you’re going to love it … Not to make a dad joke, but this team blew it out of the water.”
The Jaws pinball games are also tied into Stern Pinball’s Insider Connected system, which players can use to interact with the game and players all around the world. Through Insider Connected, players can track their progress, hunt achievements, and work on quests that increase their rank as a bounty hunter.
“Honoring one of the greatest movies of all time, we’re giving JAWS our most modern software and hardware to date,” says Seth Davis, president and CEO of Stern Pinball, “We can’t wait to debut this game’s terrifying and surprising gameplay to the world!”
The Jaws pinball game launches at CES 2024 in Las Vegas next week. Combining Jaws and pinball is a certain way to pack a nostalgic punch into your man cave, den, or gaming room this year.
