BetKing, Nigeria’s leading sports betting and digital entertainment brand under KingMakers, has renewed its official partnership with Ikorodu City Football Club for the 2025/26 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) season.

This marks the third consecutive year of collaboration between both organisations, highlighting a shared commitment to grassroots development, youth empowerment and the growth of Nigerian football.

Since the partnership began in 2023, Ikorodu City FC, popularly known as the Oga Boys, has risen rapidly through the ranks, earning promotion to the NPFL in 2024 and finishing an impressive fourth place in their debut 2024/25 campaign.

Their season was highlighted by a record-breaking 6–0 victory over Katsina United, one of the most dominant results in NPFL history.

BetKing’s support for Nigerian sports extends far beyond football. The company recently commissioned a modern mini sports complex at Ifako Ijaiye, already serving over 400,000 community members, including neighbouring communities.

Blueprint Gaming™ takes one of its strongest internationally performing series to new heights in Cash Strike Hotstepper 2, with Super Strike and mystery symbols among the new additions designed to elevate the gameplay experience on offer.

With various iterations from the Cash Strike family consistently ranking in the supplier’s top 10 revenue-generating markets, the new release builds on the impressive momentum from its predecessor, with Cash Strike Hotstepper remaining the top Cash Strike release since its launch in June 2024.

Turning attention to its successor, landing the newly introduced Super Strike symbol on the centre reel sees two additional Cash Strike symbols also added to the centre reel, enhancing players’ chances of securing cash and jackpot wins on the refined 3×3 fruit-themed reelset.

In the same vein, mystery symbols also mark their entrance to the Cash Strike series. Landing on reels one and/or three along with the Cash Strike symbol will trigger the new feature, which randomly awards one of the four fixed jackpots in play, reaching as high as 10,000x.

The return of the showstopping Hotstepper complements the two new features, triggered when the Cash Collect symbol lands on reel two. Once activated, the collect symbol moves down one position each round, again enhancing the chance of success on reels one and three.

For slot enthusiasts on the hunt for further flames, Blueprint’s first September release also welcomes back Power Play. Available at 5 times the original bet, only Bonus symbols are in play, as well as Power Reels, which offer the chance of duplicate multipliers or cash prizes during Bonus play.

Cash Strike Hotstepper 2 showcases Blueprint Gaming’s commitment to enhancing its top-performing game series with captivating new features for operators’ players to enjoy across international markets.

Jo Purvis, Director of Marketing, PR and Events, said: “The Cash Strike series continues to stand out globally, so it was important to hold on to the elements that players love, complemented by intriguing additions.

“With Hotstepper 2, we have built on the winning formula with new features like Super Strike, which deliver rich potential for lavish jackpot and cash prizes, making the title a fantastic addition to operators’ portfolios.”
