A summer of ThunderSpin games
Daily in the world new games are appearing and this summer is not that different from other seasons. A world-class independent game studio ThunderSpin provides a tour of its games’ portfolio, made up of high-quality, modern slots written in a high-standard coding language to provide seamless multi-platform performances in any market.
ThunderSpin, a market-leading independent game studio, has announced a summer tour of its games’ portfolio including Sky Lanterns, Halloween Witch Party, Kingdom of Glory, Book of Treasures, Vikings: Frozen Gods, Angels vs Demons, Egypt Story and The Money.
Starting at the top with Sky Lanterns, ThunderSpin details a slot in which players get to step into the romantic atmosphere of the Chinese New Year festival. This 6×5 video slot comes with an RTP of 95.8 per cent as players wait for the cascading appearance of a wide variety of paper lantern symbols and cluster wins. Additionally, the title comes with a Free Spins feature and a bonus mode that features numerous Free Spins and a Dragon that turns regular symbols into Wilds.
The second game on ThunderSpin’s summer tour is Kingdom of Glory, which allows players to rediscover the legends surrounding King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table.
This 5×3, 20 fixed paylines slot comes with an RTP of 96.2 per cent. As players journey through the world, they will realise that the iconic characters, such as King Arthur or Morgana, represent high paying symbols. The maximum payout is x2000 the bet amount. Others, like a knight’s helm, gold staff, green goblet, and the emerald ring will pay out smaller amounts when discovered. Kingdom of Glory also contains special features such as the Nudge Reels, Free Spins and Wilds that are all hidden throughout the Kingdom.
The third title is Book of Treasures that sends players on an exploration adventure to find ancient riches from lost civilisations.
Book of Treasures is a 5×3 classic video slot with 243 winning ways, high and low symbols, classic ancient book symbols, Free Spins, a cloning symbols feature and an instant win up to x1500. This game has a variable RTP of 92.19 – 96.16 per cent. The Special Book symbol is Wild and Scatter at the same time, which is a feature that grants players a bigger mega winning chance. The slot is not only filled with ancient gold but there are also lots of Free Spins activated by the Special Book symbol. Another feature of this slot is the possibility to purchase the Free Spins.
The fourth game on the agenda is Vikings: Frozen Gods, a journey into the cold, dark lands of the Far North. Players will venture into the unforgiving land to fight enemies and claim territory for kin and clan, all in the name of the Gods of Valhalla. The game is a 5×3, 25 payline video slot which includes a 96.3 per cent RTP. In this game there is a Frozen Gods Meter which directly impacts multipliers. The Gods ask players for three pray points before awarding them their bonus.
Additionally, the trickster Loki will always be around to aid, acting as a Jumping Wild. The shapeshifter can take the place of any god to receive their pray points. If Loki gets three prey points, he reveals himself and adds one Loki Wild to the reels, which substitutes all symbols (except for scatters) and moves to a random position after every spin.
The Hela symbol, meanwhile, will unlock the Free Spins bonus round with guaranteed wins, so keep an eye out for it. During the Free Spins bonus round, you will get more and more valuable multipliers and more Jumping Loki Wilds, and you only spend your Free Spins when you win.
In the next title of ThunderSpin’s summer of games, players are transported to Egypt in a slot inspired by the history of an ancient land. Egypt Story sees players crawl inside caves full of dangerous traps to uncover the cursed treasure.
This title is a 5×3, 20 payline title which includes an RTP of 96.3 per cent along with a Free Spins mode which awards up to an 8x multiplier, as well as a Sarcophagus bonus. Aside from the various features, the game includes an avalanche-style cascading symbols mechanic, with new symbols falling to replace ones which have been removed due to forming a winning combination. The avalanches last as long as there are wins on the reels. This way, players can gain more winning combinations on a single stake. The multipliers increase winnings by х2, х4, and х8 for every consecutive win in cascades.
From the ancient to the mystical, on the sixth stop of ThunderSpin’s summer tour, players encounter an epic confrontation between the powers of light and darkness in Angels vs Demons.
Within the game, each side moves their armies towards each other to meet and trigger the Free Spins bonus game on the side of light or on the side of darkness. When the forces of Heaven and Hell meet in the centre, a hyper-valuable Totem bonus game starts.
This apocalyptic slot has a 5×3 grid and a Win Both Ways feature, Re-Spins with Moving Wilds and Stacked Wilds. Angels vs Demons has a 96 per cent RTP along with three types of Free Spins and 20 paylines.
The second to last slot from ThunderSpin sees players dress up for a spooky party where there will be more tricks than treats in Halloween Witch Party.
Players are tasked with rounding up as many ghosts as possible at the haunted hotel to make the party a success. This 95.6 per cent RTP slot has five reels and 25 paylines with numerous bonus modes and a Free Spins round. Moreover, a winning combination of Ghost symbols activates the Avalanche Feature where Ghost symbols fly in through the hotel windows and new symbols drop from the top of the reels. As soon as any ghost counter is full, the Ghost Bonus is triggered. Each Ghost symbol variety has its own set of Free Spins and features. Also, finding three Holiday Pumpkin symbols in the left, middle and right reels will instantly launch the real Halloween Witch Party with lots of Free Spins and additional rewards.
Last, but not least, is simply The Money; a game which makes the world go round. Players can dive into a world of cash, golden coins, wallets and bags full of riches as they collect Dollar symbols to trigger bonus games and Golden Key symbols to win higher rewards.
The Money has an average RTP of 96.2 per cent and is designed in the classic video slot format with 5×3, 20 paylines. There are lots of wilds and scatter symbols, Free Spins with multipliers, and a possible maximum win up to x1000 the bet. If the player lands three or more Dollar symbols it opens the Free Spin bonus, while this bonus game special Golden Key symbol is appearing. Each Golden Key symbol adds five Free Spins and increases the multiplier up to x7.

2025 PUBG MOBILE Global Championship Details, Format, and Map Changes Revealed at Esports World Cup

James Yang, Senior Director of Global Esports at Level Infinite, has shared a number of exciting reveals for the future of PUBG MOBILE Esports. Among this news is the official plan for the second half of the 2025 competitive season, including further information on the format and changes coming to the prestigious PUBG MOBILE Global Championship (PMGC) at the end of the year. These changes are set to amplify the excitement at the final major competition in this year’s circuit, allowing more opportunities for teams to make it to number one.
As the final tournament of the annual PUBG MOBILE Esports circuit, the 2025 PMGC is the most anticipated event of the year, with professional teams vying for their chance to etch their name in esports history as the ultimate Champions of the PUBG MOBILE year. For this reason, the best teams across the world are invited to take their shot at victory. This year sees the introduction of the Gauntlet Stage to the tournament — an initial stage where the 16 best teams from each region are selected for an initial chance to go straight to the Grand Finals, with six slots up for grabs.
In order to qualify for the Gauntlet Stage, teams must be placed within the top two or three spots in the regional 2025 PUBG MOBILE Super League (PMSL) Fall Rankings, but this is not the only opportunity to enter the tournament. The bottom 10 ranked teams from the Gauntlet will enter the Group Stage, alongside 22 teams from across the globe. These 22 teams are made up of the top-scoring teams from every region, with the combined 32 teams facing off in two groups for a further four qualifying slots per group.
The final two slots are made up of the overall winner of the host-region invite slot and the winner of the Last Chance stage, where the teams ranked 5th-12th from the Group Stage will get one more shot at qualifying for the Grand Finals.
Many other changes were announced as PUBG MOBILE Esports seeks to close the gap between professional play and the wider player experience. Kicking this off, Rondo is replacing Sanhok in the official map rotation from the 2025 PMSL Fall Season, and with it comes a myriad of impactful changes. To begin, the Recall System makes a return to the competitive formula, allowing eliminated players to rejoin the battle should their teammates safely secure their tag. Sentry Guards and drops will also be introduced in keeping with the original Rondo experience and the Blue Zone speed will remain the same. However, the iconic map stores will not be available, meaning players will have to scavenge for gear just as they do in other maps.
With the action-heavy updates revealed, PUBG MOBILE Esports has also highlighted some of the best moments across the various tournaments to date. This involves a look at the skill of standout performances, key historical moments, and also recognising amazing examples of how gaming can connect people across the globe.
Beginning with the former, following two years of persistence, Indonesia’s GluSquad Esports made their mark on the game, qualifying for the PMSL SEA for the first time, earning widespread support for their fresh energy in the summer season. Waves were also made in Africa, as Memoitho made history becoming the first woman in PUBG MOBILE Esports to reach the Top 3 in the 2025 PUBG MOBILE Africa Cup (PMAC) Kenya Solo Competition. Then to Nepal, where Horaa Esports celebrated their qualification in the 2025 PMWC, marking their debut entry into a major global tournament.
Alongside these great stories are many heartwarming highlights from over the years, such as Team Nile’s own 11011Enemy, who defied the odds while managing mobility issues from sickle cell disease, securing MVP in a crucial match, and going on to represent Nigeria in Saudi Arabia. In a similar vein, a community of gamers with disabilities from Turkey were brought together by PUBG MOBILE, growing into a 50 person group of supportive players across the country. PUBG MOBILE is also celebrating the love and support shown by pro players’ families. Earlier this year, the father of Regnum Carya Esports’ Sylas celebrated his son’s success at the 2025 PUBG MOBILE Global Open (PMGO). Then at the 2025 PMWC, the father of POWR Esports’ Alhaje cheered on his son from the crowd as the weekend unfolded. With this, both of these proud fathers proved their place as their sons’ number one fans. Last but not least, fans will remember how football star Richarlison met his partner through their mutual love for PUBG MOBILE Esports.
With a plethora of significant updates to the tournament formula, the reintroduction of impactful features, and many more stories to be made, PUBG MOBILE Esports fans have plenty to look forward to for the rest of the year and beyond.

Evolution launches Ice Fishing, the fast-paced game show with up to 5,000x win potential

Evolution announced the launch of Ice Fishing, a fast-paced new addition to its live game show portfolio, first revealed at ICE 2025. Set against an arctic backdrop, Ice Fishing puts a fresh spin on the big money wheel format, with three unique bonus games, suspenseful gameplay, and multiplier wins of up to 5,000x.
At the centre of the game is a 53-segment wheel, where each spin can award an instant cash prize or trigger one of three themed bonus rounds: Lil’ Blues, Big Oranges, and Huge Reds. Each bonus offers its own gameplay style and multiplier potential — up to 100x, 200x and 500x respectively.
Enhancing the excitement are multiplier boosts that can land during the main game and carry through into the bonus rounds. This adds an extra layer of anticipation and a max win potential of up to 5,000x.
Todd Haushalter, Evolution’s Chief Product Officer, said: “We’ve wanted to create a speed game show for a long time, as we’re seeing a growing audience that craves faster, more instantly gratifying formats. It’s a trend not unlike the rising preference for TikTok-style shorts over long-form video. Ice Fishing is our take on that idea. It’s fast, fun, and packed with dramatic gameplay.”
Haushalter added: “The magic lies in the anticipation, waiting to see what kind of fish players will catch and how big the outcome might be. There are little surprises and bursts of excitement woven into the entertainment experience, and we think players will enjoy uncovering them. We’re genuinely excited about this format, as it opens the door to a new style of rapid game show with strong potential.”
