Here are this weeks latest slots releases!

MGA Games, continues to increase its catalogue of casino slot games with the launch of Queen of Persia for international markets. This new production takes players on a journey full of adventures to a land of oriental fantasy. Here, the queen of the Persian empire fights to fulfil a mission: to defend her city from the monster that threatens it. Daggers, gems, chests, and goblets loaded with gold and silver are some of the themed symbols with excellent graphic quality and animations that immerse players in this distant world of fables and impressive landscapes where they can win great prizes.

 

Yggdrasil has once again partnered up with 4ThePlayer, this time calling upon keen anglers to grab their best rods and head out to sea for big wins in YG Masters title 4 Fantastic Fish. The 6-reel, 4,069 ways slot provides players a chance to win up to 15,000x their bet and features a lucrative Respin bonus with lock and collect cash prizes that is triggered when between three and six scatter symbols land on the reels. During this feature, any reels with scatter symbols will remain in play whilst all others are closed.

 

R. Franco Digital, has launched Vacuum Buster, a title that tasks players with cleaning up a world of chaos and disorder made possible by evil sofas and fearsome fluff. With help from a superheroine protagonist and her powerful vacuum cleaner, spotlessness will return in the studio’s latest slot. Set across 5 reels and home to 20 paylines, R. Franco Digital has transformed the daily cleaning schedule into a feature-filled game.

 

Wizard Games has taken to the rink in its latest enthralling slot, Ice Ice Hockey. Players are tasked with leading their team to victory in the 5×4, 40 payline slot that gets adrenaline pumping as winning combinations land. The Wild Puck feature sees random pucks fly onto the reels to add wilds. If two land on a single space, a multiplier is added to the wild for even bigger wins.

 

Wazdan, is back with another egg-straordinary, feature-filled release in brand new Sizzling Eggs™. The five-reel slot takes players on a daunting journey through a fiery volcanic environment, where they are greeted with a variety of lucrative Special symbols, in addition to the immersive graphical style. Drawing three, four or five Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels triggers the Free Spins feature and awards players with 10, 20 or 30 Free Spins respectively, which can be retriggered during the feature.

 

iSoftBet, welcomes players to venture deep into the jungle in pursuit of exotic rewards in vibrant new release, Aztec Gold Mines™. Paying homage to one of iSoftBet’s most popular slots, Aztec Gold, the title is the supplier’s second ‘Mines’ release, delivering an easy-to-understand game where the aim is to find golden squares to boost your winnings. Behind each square on the 5×5 grid is either a golden Win Multiplier or a Montezuma Mine, the latter of which causes players to lose their accumulated prize and ends the round.

 

Relax Gaming, is once again bringing the legendary Snake Arena back to life, in an epic battle between knights and a giant serpent, this time in Snake Arena Dream Drop. With Relax’s revamped version, a giant wheel listing five different jackpots will appear on the display, setting them up with the chance to add jackpot prizes to the game’s entertainment value. The fiery 5×5, 30 fixed payline slot immerses players in a battlefield where brave knights go head-to-head with a slithering serpent, creating a high-volatility gaming experience with wins of up to 2758.8x bet.

 

OneTouch has released its latest title Raiden Medal Burst, an exciting video slot which has been purpose built to deliver a retro-gaming experience. The thrilling release delivers fast-paced and combative gameplay, with the popular Raiden series being at the forefront of the title’s design. This gives a nostalgic audio-visual experience, with the iconic Raiden jet featured at the bottom of the screen and the ‘Unknown Pollution’ song from Raiden V kicking off the Free Spins mode.

 

Derby Wheel is a day at the races meets game show flair in a 3D gaming experience from Play’n GO. Sport fans and game show enthusiasts are in for a treat with Derby Wheel. This innovative online slot combines an eclectic blend of elements from classic fruit machine style games with the excitement of a day at the races, not to mention a touch of gameshow sparkle. The aim is to get three Wheel symbols on the reels to take you through to the Bonus Wheel which will show various Multipliers plus the Horse Racing Bonus Feature.

 

Apparat Gaming, is exciting players with a rare phenomenon in its latest release, Total Eclipse. Total Eclipse combines the simplicity of classic fruit games with the power of the Hold-and-Respin feature to deliver an edge of the seat player experience. The 5×3 reel, 10 payline game does away with complicated win lines so what you see is what you get. But that’s not to say there aren’t a few surprises in store, including a Star Wild symbol that substitutes for all other symbols for added big win potential.

 

3 Oaks Gaming, has expanded its product offering with the launch of Magic Apple 2. A highly anticipated sequel to the original, which has proven popular across multiple territories, the Evil Queen is once again awaiting players in the Mysterious Forest, in the 5×4, 20 payline slot. Furthering the fairytale theme, a castle represents a scatter symbol, with three required to launch the Free Spins mode, packed with sticky wilds for massive win potential.

 

 

Pragmatic Play, takes players on an adventure through Ancient Egypt where sticky wilds reign supreme in its latest release, Fortune of Giza™. Pharaohs and a range of Egyptian Gods fill the 5×3 reels, and these must form matching combinations across the title’s 20 paylines in order to award a win. Wilds aid in creating these wins by substituting all other symbols except the free spin, and can also be landed with a multiplier attached to them. 

 

Red Tiger has announced the release of a fantastic new slot game, based on the 1986 hit movie, Flodder. All the crazy adventures and fun of the Flodder family have joined the slot world – and players now have the chance to join this crazy ride! With recurring characters such as Ma Flodder, Johnnie Flodder, Daughter Kees, Grandpa Flodder, and Whisky appearing as high-paying symbols, this game features an exciting Free Spins picker. Players will be able to pick from 20 bottles to reveal the tasty prizes within, including juicy Wilds and saucy Multipliers.

 

 

BGaming releases Big Atlantis Frenzy, the new slot that captures features of several mechanics at once. The Big Atlantis Frenzy is a sequel to BGaming’s Dig Dig Digger slot, launched in 2021 and created in collaboration with a famous comedian. The Big Atlantis Frenzy captures the best mechanics of “fishing” slots and is enhanced with a line of features to increase players’ engagement. In addition to traditional Bonus symbol, Wilds, and Free Spins, the slot comes with an independent reel size change option that allows players to set 5×3, 5×4, or 5×5 reel sizes increasing the number of paylines and the win potential of a bet.

Cactus Founder Nickolas Ribeiro Defends Industry’s Continued Commitment to Responsible Gaming

Published

In August, the Brazilian online gaming and sports betting sector will complete eight months of effective regulation. This new phase officially began on January 1, 2025, after a long period of debate and consultation between iGaming market representatives and government authorities.

According to Cactus Gaming founder Nickolas Tadeu Ribeiro de Campos, one of the main issues that has permeated this new era of online gambling is establishing resources and motivating the industry’s commitment to responsible gaming. “The commitment to Responsible Gaming must be ongoing. Here at Cactus, we invest in technological tools, protection policies, and strategic partnerships to ensure that entertainment is always aligned with the safety and well-being of players. We promote transparency, prevent risks, and support practices that strengthen the sector’s sustainability,” adds Nickolas.

It’s worth noting that the Secretariat of Prizes and Bets (SPA), which regulates gaming and betting activities in Brazil, published Ordinance SPA/MF No. 1,231, dated July 31, 2024, which establishes guidelines and measures to ensure that gaming and betting operations promote the integrity and well-being of bettors. The ordinance provides guidelines on how to manage gambling to prevent harmful behavior.

Awarded Best Platform of the Year for three consecutive years by the BIS Awards and Sigma Awards and expanding internationally, Cactus is a Brazilian company recognized for its innovation and excellence in the iGaming sector, standing out for the development of robust, secure and scalable solutions for operators worldwide.

All areas of the organization are committed to conscious practices and have leaders who believe this is one of the main pillars for a maturing market, as is the case in Brazil.

In this context, Nickolas Ribeiro emphasizes that consumers must be continually made aware, understanding that this activity needs to be done in a safe, healthy and recreational manner.

“The gaming ecosystem must be committed to raising awareness among its audience, promoting informative and preventive actions. We want gaming to be fun for everyone, while providing tools and support channels for those who need it. Therefore, educational initiatives are the best allies for building a robust, conscious, and transparent market in Brazil,” adds the founder of Cactus.

Welcome to Cactus’ new CFO

At the forefront of the industry, Cactus continues to grow and expand its structure with the acquisition of a new office and the hiring of market leaders. Last month, Thiago Garrides joined the team as the new Chief Financial Officer (CFO).

Garrides’ arrival represents a new cycle of financial expansion for the company, aligned with its strengthening in Brazil and growth in regulated international markets. The executive has over two decades of experience in corporate finance, risk management, and treasury. He has also led projects focused on operational efficiency, governance, and the structuring of financial services solutions.

Cactus Gaming, along with its founder, Nickolas Ribeiro, understands the importance of employing highly qualified professionals to offer partners global standards of innovation, transparency, and security. Since its founding, the brand has established a broad portfolio of products and services geared toward the iGaming market, with the credibility of a company that adheres to international best practices. Garrides’ arrival reinforces this constant pursuit of excellence and responsibility.

“Thiago’s arrival represents a significant step forward in our executive structure. We are currently consolidating and expanding internationally, and having a CFO with his experience and strategic vision reinforces our commitment to solid, responsible management aligned with the challenges of the iGaming sector,” emphasizes Nickolas Ribeiro.

Internationally recognized and awarded brand

Cactus’ pioneering work has been recognized by major national and international industry awards. The company was named Best Platform of the Year for three consecutive years—in 2025, 2024, and 2023—and also won “Best White Label” at the SiGMA Awards and “Best Platform” at the BiS Awards.

With a presence at the main global events in the sector such as ICE, SiGMA Americas, SBC Summit, SiGMA Europe, IGB among others, and in full international expansion, Cactus Gaming reinforces its leadership by expanding its operations in Latin America, Europe and other markets.

The White Label Dilemma: Finding the Right Balance for Your iGaming Business

Published

on

the-white-label-dilemma:-finding-the-right-balance-for-your-igaming-business

It’s not just black and white label

Yoni Sidi, CEO at Wiztech, says white labels are all about striking the balance between pros and cons, but for some, it’s impossible to achieve and that’s why it’s important to consider other options.

 

For most operators, a white label solution seems to offer the best route to market. But is that actually the case?

I’ve been working in the industry for more than two decades now, and over that time, I’ve worked on both sides of the fence – so on the white label operator side and on the white label provider side. This gives me a deep understanding of the pros and cons of white label solutions, and this understanding ultimately led me to launch Wiztech. To answer your question more directly, white labels are always about striking the balance between the pros and cons they present – for some operators, a balance can be found, but for others, it can’t. Ultimately, it comes down to knowing what you want from your platform or technology stack, and whether a white label can meet those requirements with the budget and resources you have available to you.

 

So, what are the pros and cons of a white label platform?

There are plenty of upsides to white labels, and that’s why they’re used by so many operators. The main advantages are speed to market and cost effectiveness – you can literally go from first discussions to your online casino being live in a matter of weeks. The upfront fees are relatively small, and, in most cases, you pay a revenue share back to the platform provider. This can tighten margins a little, but it means you don’t have to have a large capital reserve to get going. Another benefit is that you can take on as much or as little of the operation as you like – for some, they will let the platform provider take care of the operational aspect while they focus solely on marketing and customer acquisition. Other upsides include licensing, with the white label partner securing and being responsible for the licences they hold.

Drawbacks. The biggest for me is the lack of differentiation you get with a white label. The many brands that run on the platform often look very much the same, just with different logos and branding. After a few months of operating your online casino, you’ll likely notice friction points that you’ll want to address, but the rigid nature of white-label platforms means it’s incredibly difficult to smooth out even the smallest of bumps in the road. It’s also incredibly difficult to roll out unique features and functionality as the development team is usually working through a backlog of requests – most of which are for the friction bumps that need ironing out. Factor in the frequent regulatory changes that happen, and the need for the development team to respond to them, and it’s easy to see how hard it can be to improve the experience being offered to players.

 

How can operators strike a balance between the pros and cons of white labels?

It comes down to understanding the capabilities of the platform provider and whether they offer customisation and localisation. If they don’t, the operator needs to determine if this is a price they’re willing to pay in exchange for the speed to market and cost effectiveness that white labels provide. Of course, some white label providers do offer support and are happy to help when it comes to developing and deploying bespoke features and functionality. But in my experience, most don’t have the capacity for this, even if they say they do. For me, the balance is found by accepting the limitations of white labels and working within the (often pretty rigid framework) they provide. There are plenty of examples of operators that have done this and have gone on to run very successful brands in highly competitive markets.

 

Is there an alternative to white labels?

The most obvious alternative is to develop a proprietary technology stack, but this approach comes with just as many, if not more, pitfalls. Building a platform from the ground up is incredibly expensive and tremendously risky, and this is why so few operators outside of the industry power players have been able to pull it off. And even those that do often encounter issues such as ongoing maintenance, tech debt, staffing and compliance. But there is a middle ground between white label and proprietary, and it can be found with smaller platform providers whose technologies offer the agility, flexibility and adaptability required for operators to launch highly customised, almost bespoke, online casinos and sportsbooks.

 

How does Wiztech fit into the platform mix, and how do you support your partners in achieving their goals in often highly competitive markets?

At Wiztech, we champion modular tech and the likes of AI and automation. By embracing these, we have been able to build powerful yet highly customisable casino and sportsbook solutions that are also fully compliant in tightly regulated markets. In our experience, being able to quickly respond to regulatory changes provides a competitive advantage to our customers. In Mexico, for example, our client Winpot has been able to deliver a unique player experience while always ensuring compliance. And this is against a backdrop where regulatory changes often come with very little notice. Our technology can adapt quickly while Winpot continues to capitalise on the growing demand for entertaining online casino products and experiences.

But just as important as our technology is our approach to our partners. This sees us undertake a comprehensive onboarding process where we spend a lot of time understanding the client’s “why” before we map out the “what” and the “how”. This has proved to be incredibly effective and ensures that our clients can get the most out of the flexibility of our platform and the high levels of customisation and personalisation it provides.
