Supercharged sequel sees players shoot for epic wins with unlimited multipliers and unique Ultra Bet feature

 iSoftBet, the leading online and mobile casino content provider, has launched Hot Shots 2, inviting players to lace up their boots and score huge wins in this supercharged sequel.

Always at the forefront of innovation, iSoftbet has included their new Ultra Bet* feature on this slot-based football extravaganza, allowing players to place a single wager to unlock 50 high-octane games, collecting wins, multiplier stars and bonus rounds along the way. Ultra Bet offers a unique way to play, prioritising the most exciting game features for a more engaging player experience.

Launched at the same time as live action football leagues resume, Hot Shots 2 takes the proven successful model from the original Hot Shots, with expanding Wilds, and takes it to another level with an unlimited increasing win multiplier during Free Spins for even more ways to strike it lucky.

Five quirky footballers are the high paying symbols, each one representing their own country. A German Shepherd, French cockerel, Spanish Bull, British Bulldog and Portuguese Fox all battle it out for possession of the reels, ready to fire up players’ fortunes in this feature-filled slot.

Players can win big in a host of ways, including from win multipliers, expanding Wilds, Free Spins bonuses and the special Wild Golden Ball. Hit the back of the net with this symbol during Free Spins and the ball expands both vertically and horizontally as well as increasing the win multiplier.

Three or more Hot Shots symbols will see you qualify for the Free Spins round, where the unlimited win multiplier is in play and regular footballs on reels 2, 3 or 4 will expand to form multiple wilds. And it’s not full-time yet, as Free Spins can also be retriggered via bonus symbols during the feature.

Mark Claxton, Head of Games at iSoftBet, said: “Hot Shots was so popular we decided to launch a sequel with a supercharged bonus for players to score even bigger wins. Launching our new Ultra Bet feature on this game made perfect sense as it embraces the exciting and frantic nature of the “beautiful game” while also offering players a whole new way to play slots.

  • The Rangers-Kindred relationship first began 10 years ago in 2014
  • Unibet and Zero% Mission branding are the primary front of shirt sponsor for all four kits – with sister brand 32Red supporting the club as the Training and Warm Up Kit Sponsor
  • EPIC Risk Management Gambling and money management workshop made available to all Rangers players.
  • Unibet continues to be the only operator to include a responsible gambling message on its front-of-shirt branding
  • As part of the agreement, Kindred has renewed its funding of men’s mental health initiative – Team Talk – which will be delivered by the Rangers Charity Foundation

Kindred Group – home to Unibet and 32Red brands in the UK – has agreed a substantial new front-of-shirt sponsorship deal with Rangers FC, cementing the partnership as the longest running in British football.

Kindred have already partnered with Rangers for 10 seasons, significantly investing into the club’s outreach work in the local community. The partnership will continue to fund Rangers Charity Foundation’s delivery of Team Talk – a men’s mental health initiative. Team Talk leverages the club and its players, manager and staff as a mechanism to engage with men about their mental well-being.

The Group’s Unibet brand will adorn first team shirts while 32Red – which was the previous front-of-shirt sponsor – will continue to support the club as Training and Warm Up Kit Sponsor.

“Zero% Mission”, which is Kindred’s Responsible gambling message, will also appear on the new shirts which are available now. Kindred remains the only gambling operator to feature safer gambling messaging on front-of-shirt advertising in the UK.

Part of the company’s ‘Journey towards Zero’, Kindred’s Zero% Mission represents the brand’s ambition to reach 0% of its revenue derived from harmful gambling. It is based on educating fans and players about the tools available to keep gambling safe and enjoyable – and to signpost where to go if there are problems.

Sam Mead, General Manager UK, Kindred Group, said: “Kindred’s partnership with Rangers is British football’s longest running and one of the most impactful. Rangers are a club with a rich history, who have a passionate and loyal fanbase – so we are delighted to be partnering with the team once again.

We join the supporters in wishing the team the very best in the ongoing season – together, we hope we can make it another successful one.

“We recognise that we are in the privileged position to support clubs and their communities – a responsibility we take very seriously. That’s why since we began working with Rangers, the basis of the partnership has always been to showcase the Rangers Charity Foundation’s wide-ranging work that is so important – including the men’s mental health initiative Team Talk. This fantastic work will continue over the course of our latest partnership.”

Rangers Chief Commercial Officer, Karim Virani, commented: “Everyone at the club is absolutely delighted to extend our longstanding partnership with the Kindred Group. This partnership is the longest running of its kind in British football – and has helped the club enormously over what will be 15 years at the end of the deal we’ve announced today.

“Most importantly, we’d like to thank them for continuing their vital support of the club’s Foundation – especially through the Team Talk mental health initiative. The health and wellbeing of our local community is very important to ourselves and Kindred. We are all looking forward to the opportunity to continue driving forward new initiatives that will benefit both our supporters and the people of Glasgow.”
