Are you wanting to make some new additions to your portfolio?

If you are, then analysts think the two ASX 200 shares listed below could be worth considering. Here's why these shares are rated as buys:

Altium Limited (ASX: ALU)

The first ASX 200 share that could be a great buy and hold option is Altium.

Altium is a software company that focuses on electronic design systems for 3D printed circuit board (PCB) design and embedded system development. It is used by design teams of all shapes and sizes. This includes the likes of BAE Systems, Dell, Microsoft, NASA, and Tesla.

Thanks to favourable industry tailwinds and its leadership position, management is forecasting strong revenue growth in the coming years. It is is aiming to achieve US$500 million in revenue by 2026, which will be more than double FY 2022's revenue of US$220.8 million.

Morgan Stanley is a fan of the company. It currently has a buy rating and $43.50 price target on its shares.

Aristocrat Leisure Limited (ASX: ALL)

Aristocrat could be another ASX 200 share to buy and hold.

It is a gaming technology company with a portfolio of industry-leading poker machines, a lucrative digital business, and a fledgling real money gaming business. The latter recently launched with a deal with BetMGM.

Goldman Sachs is confident in the company's long term outlook. This is due to Aristocrat "holding a top 3 spot in slot machine sales in the US, having a strong digital gaming offering, and now launching into the growing iGaming market."

Goldman has a buy rating and $42.80 price target on its shares.
