Yggdrasil and ReelPlay collaborate for Hot Rise Games launch Monsters VS Gigablox™
Yggdrasil and ReelPlay have joined forces to launch the latest release by Hot Rise Games, Monsters VS Gigablox™.
The title sees an epic battle of monstrous proportions taking place across a devastated city and features huge creatures fighting across the 6×6, 50-payline grid.
As with all games incorporating the popular Gigablox™ Game Engagement Mechanic (GEM), an oversized symbol will land on every spin, which can be anything from 2×2 to 6×6 in size.
A Golden crown acts as wild, while the ‘VS’ symbol is a scatter. Five or more of these are required to trigger the free spins, while it also acts as a paying symbol.
Up to 40 spins can be awarded, where huge wins await. The monster symbol that appears most on the reels during the triggering spin becomes the chosen champion, and if none appear, Kongo King is automatically chosen.
All Gigablox™ symbols in the bonus are Monsters only, while all wins containing wilds or the champion are paid double.
In certain jurisdictions, players can purchase the bonus via the buy feature for 75x their stake.
Monsters VS Gigablox™ is the latest Hot Rise Games title to be produced as part of the YG Masters portfolio, following Legion – Hot 1. As with all YG Masters titles, the game is powered by GATI, Yggdrasil’s state-of-the-art technology enabling partners to employ the preconfigured, regulation-ready, standardised development toolkit to consistently produce cutting-edge content followed by rapid distribution.
Stuart McCarthy, Head of Product & Programs at Yggdrasil, said: “Monsters VS Gigablox™ brings an exciting, apocalyptic environment to the reels as great denizens of the dark fight it out in a destroyed city.
“Packing in our Gigablox™ GEM makes for another thrilling addition to the YG Masters offering as we strive to create dynamic, unique content.”
David Johnson, CEO at ReelPlay, said: “ReelPlay have partnerships with many independent studios which allow us to showcase varied approaches to game development. We’re proud of our partnership with Hot Rise Games and our ability to enable them to contribute exciting products to the YG Masters offering.”
Swedish gaming giants’ games now available in the province of Córdoba’s newly regulated market
Play’n GO, the world’s leading casino entertainment provider, has today announced their expansion into yet another new regulated market, as the Swedish gaming giant has agreed a partnership with Betsson in the province of Córdoba, Argentina.
Argentina is currently in a process of regulation for online gaming purposes on a province-by-province basis, and the partnership with Betsson sees Play’n GO enter yet another regulated market, keeping up the momentum from 2023 that saw the company expand its global reach.
This announcement sees Betsson’s players in Córdoba gain access to Play’n GO’s entire catalogue of games, including classics such as Book of Dead, Reactoonz, and Moon Princess.
This announcement is a signal of intent from Play’n GO, who reiterate their commitment to be present in every regulated market in the world.
Michele Stefanelli, Sales Leader, LATAM and Southern Europe, Play’n GO said: “Our first foray into a new region is always exciting for us, and we’re looking forward to a successful partnership with Betsson in Córdoba. Players around the world, and especially in the LATAM region, have already shown their fondness for our content, and we’re quietly confident that this new region will be no different. We are on record with our commitment to a safe, regulated industry, and we’re very pleased to see that approach rolled out globally by lawmakers and operators alike.”
Maximiliano Bellio, Managing Director Betsson Argentina, added: “We’re pleased to welcome Play’n GO to the Betsson family here in the Córdoba region, and we look forward to many years of success together. Like Play’n GO, Betsson is committed to a sustainable industry model, so this partnership makes perfect sense for both parties. We’re sure our players will be as excited as we are once they start playing these games that have proven so popular around the world, so let’s get started.”
Play’n GO’s games are already available in the autonomous city of Buenos Aires and Buenos Aires Province within Argentina’s federal system.
Listed Swedish studio to benefit from increased speed to market
Tequity, the up-and-coming iGaming software pioneer, has agreed an integration deal with innovative studio Fantasma Games.
The integration of Tequity’s agile, licensed modular platform is expected to boost the speed-to-market capabilities of Fantasma, as the studio aims to grow its presence in key markets including North America.

Once live, Fantasma will be able to reach the next level by adding partners at a quicker rate, as it looks to meet operator demand for fresh types of content including increasingly popular sweepstakes.
The latest deal, with a studio listed on the Swedish stock market, follows on from successful launches of Tequity technology with sports betting-focused Parlaybay, multiplayer specialist BeyondPlay and slots supplier AvatarUX.
Tequity offers founders, start-ups, scale-ups and established companies across the iGaming sector a wide range of software modules that can be hand-picked to meet the needs of specific projects.
Krzysztof Opałka, Chief Technology Officer at Tequity, said: “We are excited to be working with Fantasma Gaming, to help further their growth in key markets worldwide.
“This partnership illustrates the power of our platform in delivering an efficient RGS solution that speeds up the launch process of their top-quality content. The Tequity platform offers a strong foundation for licensees wishing to create and deliver unique content to operators.”
Fredrik Johansson, CEO and Founder of Fantasma Games, added: “Thanks to the Tequity platform, Fantasma Games is working faster and smarter across a number of areas, allowing us to bring innovative content to our partners at speed.

Maxiplier combines a retro-inspired theme with revolutionary gameplay. Speedometer-style icons, on reels two and four, act as both wilds and multipliers that can increase wins up to 20x. Land two of these multipliers simultaneously for a potential max multiplier of 400x.
Maxiplier will launch with the highly anticipated 1-2-infinity ante bet mechanic. Land two scatters on the first two reels and trigger an infinite amount of respins. Collect wins until the third scatter lands, unlocking the thrilling free spins round.
The free spins round features enhanced multiplier wilds alongside the 1-2-Infinity respins, for even bigger wins. This exciting bonus builds upon the success of Realistic Games’ recent hits like Fortune Fortress and Chicken or the Egg? solidifying its position as an industry innovator.
Amy Brewis, Account Manager at Realistic Games, said: “We’re excited to be launching Maxiplier, a game with fresh mechanics that allows players the chance to win infinite respins. Multiplier wilds in both the base game and free spins keep things thrilling, and the 1-2-Infinity ante bet adds another layer of engagement.
“We expect players to love the chance for endless respins, a feature we’ve evolved from our popular Catch 22 slot. We can’t wait to see the response from players and operators alike!”
