Crown resorts has been hit by a major setback after the New South Wales gaming regulator blocked next month's opening of a new multi-billion-dollar casino in Sydney.

Gaming operations at Barangaroo will be banned indefinitely over fears the casino could be a magnet for money laundering.

A license will not be provided until a review is finalised next year.

The delay comes after an inquiry into the casino empire in which Crown admitted money had been laundered through two of its bank accounts.
