Play’n GO has fans seeing double with Mirror Joker
Play’n GO invites players into their hall of mirrors to seek the fabled Mirror Joker and their reflective powers.
Players will step foot into this reflective realm alongside the mischievous Mirror Joker with the aim of securing some big wins. Fans of other Joker titles, including games like Fire Joker (2016), Chronos Joker (2019), and Joker Flip (2024) are sure to love this new addition to the iconic series.
Mirror Joker ventures into the dazzling world of mirrors where not all is as it seems while some rewards are even more than they first appear. Spinning the 3×3 reels, players will aim to create winning combinations of symbols across five fixed paylines. During the base game they’ll keep their eyes peeled for special bonus features including the Mirror Respin and the Mirror Joker themself.
During the Mirror Respin, which is triggered when two stacks of the same symbols land, the reels will expand to a 5×3 layout and active paylines will double, increasing to 10, while also mirroring the stacked symbols on the expanded reels. This increases the chances of securing some big wins!
Not only is Mirror Joker perfect for fans of the Joker series of games, but fans of other iconic Play’n GO series such as the Wilde series and the Reactoonz series are sure to resonate with this fantasy-rich title.
Games Ambassador at Play’n GO, Magnus Wallentin, said: “We’re always excited to release a new Joker title to the series as they’re always a popular option for fans of slots. For players that enjoy straightforward yet enjoyable slots, with exciting twists like Mirror Joker’s Mirror Respin feature, these slots are always a top pick for a great gaming experience.”
With its dazzling mirror-themed designs and engaging gameplay features, Play’n GO’s Mirror Joker is destined to reflect the true innovation of Play’n GO’s extensive library of iconic titles. Are you ready to set foot into this hall of mirrors?

Apollo Funds Complete Acquisitions of International Game Technology’s Gaming & Digital Business and Everi; Combined Enterprise to Operate as IGT

Apollo announced the completion of the previously announced acquisitions of International Game Technology PLC’s (doing business as Brightstar Lottery) Gaming & Digital Business and Everi Holdings Inc. (Everi) by a holding company owned by funds managed by Apollo affiliates (the Apollo Funds). The all-cash transaction, valued at approximately $6.3 billion, brings together complementary businesses to form a privately held global leader in gaming, digital and financial technology solutions.
The two companies will be integrated into a combined enterprise in the coming months. Headquartered in Las Vegas, the combined enterprise will operate under the IGT name, while retaining the Everi brand in select markets and product lines. IGT will be organized into three business units: Gaming, Digital, and FinTech, creating a customer-first enterprise supported by a people-first culture that values talent, collaboration, and innovation.
“This is a defining moment for our industry. By uniting two leading organizations, we are building an enterprise with the scale, talent and technology to lead the future of gaming. With Apollo’s support, we are very well-positioned to deliver exceptional content across land-based and digital experiences, along with integrated financial solutions and casino management that enhance the player journey and drive value for our customers. I’m honored to be part of this exciting chapter and to help shape the future of IGT,” said Nick Khin, Interim CEO of IGT.
As previously announced, Hector Fernandez is expected to assume the role of CEO of IGT in the fourth quarter of 2025, following the expiration of a customary non-compete period. Until then, Mr. Khin will lead the organization and transition into the role of CEO of IGT’s Gaming business unit upon Mr. Fernandez’s arrival.
“Bringing together highly complementary businesses creates a more competitive, agile and well-capitalized platform built for long-term growth. We are confident that IGT is well positioned to deliver differentiated content and capabilities that better serve customers across the globe. We look forward to working closely with Hector, Nick and the rest of the talented IGT team to lead the industry forward,” said Daniel Cohen, Partner at Apollo.
