Week 15/2023 slot games releases
Here are this weeks latest slots releases compiled by European Gaming
After releasing the macabre delight that was ‘Blood & Shadow’ – Nolimit City is gearing up to introduce yet another blockbuster of a slot into the world. While the provider is no stranger to unconventional themes, their newest release takes things a little further as NLC set out to hit the country roads right alongside the unsuspecting, chainsaw-wielding psycho known as “Chainsaw Larry” in their latest release, Kiss My Chainsaw.
Yggdrasil, has blasted off into outer space with its latest launch Giganimals GigaBlox™. The 6-reel, 40 payline title features the hugely popular GigaBlox™ Game Engagement Mechanic (GEM), which sees supersized symbols land on the reels, potentially reaching up to 6×6 in size. The action-packed game sees two types of Free Spins modes, and a Wild Surge can occur on any spin, turning one of the four low-paying icons into wilds for huge wins.
Relax Gaming, the iGaming aggregator and supplier of unique content, has released Money Cart 3 in the UK, with players able to leave the base game grind behind and keep their eye on the 10,000x big win. With an RTP of 96%, the latest release in the Money Train series of slots is bonus round focused and targeted towards markets with Buy Feature restrictions.
Things are getting real fruity at Swintt following the launch of its latest classic slot, Win-O-Rama. This is a game that will appeal to fans of traditional slot machines, and those that love to watch as the fruit symbols – as well as BARs, Bells and Lucky 7s – drop onto the reels and the potentially big wins line up. Win-O-Rama is set across five reels and three rows with the choice of two different payout mechanics. Players can either opt for the full 20 pay lines or reduce the number to five but with a much higher volatility and max bet multiplier of 1,222x their bet.
This new game from Red Rake Gaming transports us to Ancient Egypt, where players are challenged to find the great pharaoh Ramses’ guarded treasure. A video slot with the “1 million ways to win” feature, an exciting minigame and a free spins feature, all guaranteeing hours of fun for all players. This game takes you to the doors of Ramses’ pyramid, where you’ll find a wall that is raised bit by bit to discover more rows with each win. If a pyramid appears in a row, it will be added to the progress bar, which will trigger a minigame when filled.
Playson, has added to its captivating Hold and Win series with its first Egyptian night themed release Giza Nights: Hold and Win. This feature-rich 5×3, 25-line slot invites players on a mysterious journey to one of the Seven Wonders of the World – as they embark on a voyage around the ancient town of Giza in search of treasure. Offering enchanting gameplay and immersive design, Giza Nights: Hold and Win is an unmissable adventure for gamers.
Wazdan, has released the latest slot in its hit series, Hot Slot™: 777 Cash Out. The release is the eighth slot in the top-performing Hot Slot™ series, which has delivered strong results across all operator performance indicators. As with its predecessors, Hot Slot™: 777 Cash Out fuses a classic retro theme, reminiscent of an old-school slot machine, with Wazdan’s modern and innovative mechanics.
Gamzix, has released a new mysterious slot called Wolf Story. Wildlife is about danger, but greatness, so everyone just wants to take a look at this amazing picture. Gamzix’s new slot opens this opportunity for players and suggests being involved in the new powerful story, where wild characters let players take some benefits from its land. Wolf Story is a 5-reel, 3-row slot with 25 fixed paylines.
BGaming is inviting players on an intergalactic voyage – where the spaceship’s crew are a gang of adventurous Alien Fruits. Played across six reels, the space-themed slot follows an avocado, plum, pomegranate, lemon and passionfruit as they embark on a trip across the solar system. With enticing gameplay including innovative AI-generated graphics, refilling reels and opportunities to win up to x15000, players accompany the fruit characters as they seek out jelly letters for energy.
Play’n GO add Ronin’s Honour, the all-new samurai-action title to their collection of premium slots. In this adventure, follow The Ronin: a wise swordswoman trained in both ninja and samurai arts, as he clashes blades with Hannya, the fearsome ninja. Pulling inspiration from classic samurai movies, fans of Play’n GO might draw parallels between Ronin’s Honour and the supernatural Tale of Kyubiko (2022). Land three matching symbols to secure a win.
Pragmatic Play, is embarking on a star-studded adventure with its latest slot, Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways. Players can hop on board an iconic double-decker London bus and enjoy up to 117,649 ways to win across six ever-changing reel sizes. Symbols include an array of celebrity passengers, who can form winning combinations to award a win. Any winning symbols are removed from play, triggering a cascade of new symbols. This tumble feature continues for up to 20 consecutive spins or until no more wins are created.

Latest News
The Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario has issued monetary penalties totaling $350,000 against Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto for multiple violations of provincial gaming standards. The penalties follow an impromptu after-party that was permitted to take place in the pre-dawn hours directly on the casino’s gaming floor. On September 27, 2024, an electronic dance music event attended by thousands of people was hosted in the theatre adjacent to the casino at Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto. The event was marked by widespread intoxication, disorderly behaviour and numerous criminal and medical incidents – both inside and outside the venue – including alleged assaults, drug overdoses and acts of public indecency. Although paid duty officers were present, additional police and emergency services were required to manage the situation.
International Game Technology PLC, doing business as Brightstar Lottery, announced that Michelle Carney, Brightstar’s Vice President of Global Lottery Marketing, will be inducted into the Lottery Industry Hall of Fame as a member of the Class of 2025. The induction ceremony will take place this September at an industry event in Ontario, Canada hosted by the Public Gaming Research Institute (PGRI) in conjunction with the North American Association of State and Provincial Lotteries (NASPL). In her current role, Carney is responsible for the development of marketing and communications strategies that support growth for Brightstar’s Global Lottery business, including lottery product marketing, trade shows and events, thought leadership communications and B2C marketing campaign materials to support customer launches of new game content.
Partnerships
International Game Technology PLC announced that its subsidiary, IGT Canada Solutions ULC (IGT), signed an eight-year agreement with Atlantic Lottery to supply its IntelligenEVO video lottery central system technology across Atlantic Canada. The agreement includes the option for multiple extensions and positions the Atlantic Lottery to become the first World Lottery Association (WLA)-affiliated lottery operator to deploy IGT’s next-generation central management system in a game-to-system (G2S) distributed market. With peak system security, network availability and responsible gaming functionalities, IntelligenEVO is a reliable, scalable solution that can meet the needs of today and in the future. The solution will accelerate time-to-market and enables the Atlantic Lottery to benefit from the system’s suite of player-focused functionality. The technology’s G2S and open API design optimises data collection and delivery and will enable Atlantic Lottery to customise their programme for evolving player needs.
EDGE Boost by EDGE Markets, a financial platform for smart bettors and gamblers, has partnered with World Series of Poker, the premier series of worldwide poker tournaments. The EDGE Boost debit card is now the preferred payment method for WSOP, offering ease of payment, safety and several exclusive on-site perks for tournament players. In past tournaments, WSOP players were limited to $10,000 per transaction and had to complete a lengthy approval process, often resulting in frequent cash deposits. Now, those using the EDGE Boost card through PayPal checkout can bypass traditional credit card verification. They can also make entries up to $250,000, which eliminates the need to carry large sums of cash at the event and increases security measures.

Zimpler introduces ID+: A next-gen identification layer for digital payments

Zimpler, a leading Swedish company in Pay-by-bank solutions, today announced the launch of Zimpler ID+, a new identity layer designed to simplify compliance and accelerate user conversion within digital payment environments. By embedding biometric identification and regulatory checks directly into the first user interaction, Zimpler ID+ reduces friction in sectors with complex onboarding requirements.
“Zimpler ID+ gives our partners a direct path to compliance and conversion – cutting onboarding time, reducing drop-offs, and removing the need to build identity infrastructure in-house,” said Tobias Gunnesson, Chief Product Officer at Zimpler.
“While most verification flows still rely solely on deposit-based triggers or cookie tracking, we’re the first to enable verification at the point of entry – meeting compliance head-on and delivering a better user experience from the start.”
Purpose-built for highly regulated digital environments
Zimpler ID+ serves industries where compliance is critical and abandonment rates are costly, such as iGaming and financial services. It ensures users are verified from the start, without requiring deposits or post-registration identity checks.
Key features include:
- Quick onboarding: Verification and collection of KYC data takes place at the first point of contact, not only at the point of payment
- Seamless return user experience: Returning users can identify with biometric technology and are recognized with the help of cookies
- Works even without cookies: If cookies are unavailable, the user can easily identify themselves using a passkey
- Built-in compliance: Regulatory assurance at every step of the customer journey
By functioning as a unified identity layer from sign-up through repeat visits, Zimpler ID+ helps businesses minimize onboarding churn and maximize regulatory confidence.
Solving identification friction at scale
The launch of Zimpler ID+ comes as businesses across Europe face rising pressure to improve digital onboarding while maintaining regulatory standards. National ID systems remain foundational – but they weren’t built to optimize every business touchpoint.
Zimpler ID+ complements these systems by offering operators a plug-in layer of biometric identification and gathering of KYC information tailored to business needs. It removes the need for deposit triggers, repeated logins, or re-verification after a device change.
“With Zimpler ID+, we’re introducing a flexible approach that gives businesses more control over identity flows – without compromising security or relying solely on external systems” said Gunnesson.
Product availability
Zimpler ID+ is now available as a value-added service to select partners in Finland, with more markets to be added in the future.
By embedding advanced onboarding capabilities directly into its existing infrastructure, Zimpler expects ID+ to strengthen customer retention and enhance platform value across regulated sectors for years to come.
