Today’s Vinnie Jones game launch redefines online roulette
Vinnie Jones Stories Roulette, the third instalment in Real Dealer’s series of games featuring the legendary tough guy, blurs lines between entertainment genres by combining elements of a no-holds-barred interview with classic European roulette.
During each round of the game, the iconic tough guy answers a different fan question while his co-host, played by actress Rachael Bower (Twin Peaks), spins the wheel. The longer a player stays at the table, the more they’ll hear Vinnie’s stories about football, acting, life and more.
This hybrid style of entertainment is possible thanks to cinematic RNG, an innovative process created by Real Dealer whereby cinema-quality recorded video is integrated into a random number generator-based game framework. The approach closely mirrors that of Hollywood filmmaking, with professional actors, directors and production crew delivering polished footage of dealers and gameplay.
The extensive Q&A required for Vinnie Jones Stories Roulette was conducted on a Los Angeles sound stage this spring as part of the filming for the studio’s wider Vinnie Jones games series. Questions such as ‘How did things change for you after the Gazza incident?’ and ‘Where have you been banned for life and why?’ numbered in the hundreds.
“That was, hands down, the longest interview I’ve ever had,” Vinnie joked at the time of the production.
The game sees Vinnie responding to the questions in his famously direct fashion, providing answers – often laced with profanity – that are at times jokey, at others honest and revealing. However, Shane Cotter, Chief Product Officer at Real Dealer Studios, notes that the game’s appeal will go far beyond die-hard fans.
“In addition to everything else he is, Vinnie’s simply a consummate professional and a fantastic entertainer. And as you’d imagine, he has an endless supply of crazy stories to tell, so there’s a lot to see,” Cotter said.
Vinnie Jones Stories Roulette is part of a series that includes Vinnie Jones Roulette, launched in September, and Vinnie Jones Blackjack, launched in early November. Additional Vinnie Jones titles are planned for release in 2023.
Real Dealer titles are available exclusively from Games Global.

GoldenRace launches V5 mobile solution with unified app and WebGL branding
GoldenRace has launched its next-generation V5 mobile solution, the supplier announced on 1 July 2026 in Malta. The company positions the release as a mobile delivery upgrade for its virtual sports and betting content, aimed at maintaining performance under high player traffic.
According to GoldenRace, V5 consolidates its previous architecture into a single application and “drastically reduces load sizes by 80–90%.” The company also said the platform is built “completely from the ground up” with a unified UI/UX designed to remain responsive across different network conditions.
On product features, GoldenRace said V5 introduces “advanced WebGL capabilities” to support high-fidelity graphics and operator-controlled branding. It also adds native gamification tools across games, including custom Tournaments, Leaderboards and Free Bets.
The company also outlined three mobile upgrades intended to reduce friction in the betting flow: a Lobby with modular layouts and a one-click toggle between scheduled and instant views; a next-generation Betslip with richer visual components and “smart organisation”; and dynamic Leaderboards with configurable funding and custom point logic.
GoldenRace said operators can switch to V5 by “changing a single line of code,” and added that a demo is available for operators evaluating the new mobile solution.

St8 adds game round replays to its single API platform
Replay tool builds on St8’s graphical game round details and launches first with nine casino game studios.
St8 has launched game round replays, adding visual playback of completed casino game rounds to its existing single API platform. The company said the feature is designed to help operators verify outcomes faster and resolve player queries more efficiently.
The new capability builds on St8’s graphical game round details, which it said is already used by operators. With replays, support and operations teams can access a round’s visual playback to investigate gameplay disputes and respond to players with more transparency.
St8 also positioned the feature as a player engagement tool, with operators able to surface notable moments such as big wins and bonus rounds for promotional use.
Game round replays will initially support titles from AvatarUX, BGaming, Endorphina, Hacksaw, Peter & Sons, Pragmatic Play, Scatter Kings, Shady Lady, and Tequity Originals, with more providers to be added. St8 said the feature is delivered through its existing single API integration and requires no additional development work, and is intended to scale across multiple brands and regulated markets.
David Fall, Business Development Manager at St8, said: “Operators are under increasing pressure to deliver exceptional customer support while keeping operational costs under control. Our graphical game round details have become a trusted and widely used tool for operators, giving support teams quick access to the information they need to resolve player queries efficiently. Game round replays complement this capability by providing a visual playback of each round, helping teams resolve cases even faster and with complete confidence.
“Beyond operational efficiency, the feature also opens up new opportunities for engagement. Operators can showcase exciting gameplay moments, celebrate big wins and create richer player experiences – all through the same integration. Because game round replays are delivered through our existing single API, partners can access this functionality immediately while continuing to benefit from the simplicity and scalability that sit at the heart of the St8 platform.”
