Following a successful 2019, the slot specialists are not resting on their laurels and have already started their release schedule for what is going to be their busiest year for game releases yet. Legacy of Dead is the first of 52 planned releases for the calendar year and is a 5-reel slot based around the mythology of Ancient Egypt. The story centers around an Egyptian King, released from death in the quest for power and riches. The game’s design follows its thee very closely, and the early release of the title signals the company’s intent for this year, as told by CEO Johan Törnqvist: “2019 was a record-breaking year for us, and we plan to reach even higher for 2020.

Kicking off the year with steady momentum following a strong 2019 for Nolimit City. The studio that fronted games like Tombstone, Tractor Beam, and Dragon Tribe is excited to unveil their first release of the year, Poison Eve. A slot that brings a mix of familiarity to the old school, whilst mixing up some new ideas to deliver a heavy punching game. Poison Eve is designed with a 5-reel, 3-row layout, showcasing 12 symbols across a 20 win-line frame. Feature-rich gameplay with three core features that players get to enjoy. Connect Expanding Wilds in the base game and chase for two main features; Liquid Magic, land stacked Eve fully on the first reel and she’ll transform all poison liquid bottles to the highest paying symbol, Eve!

Relax Gaming, the innovative content provider and aggregation platform, is pitting knights against a giant snake in its latest, heart-racing release Snake Arena. 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 maximum volatility gaming experience with wins of up to 2758.8x bet.

NetGaming, the creative casino games studio, has released its latest thrilling slot, Infinity Battle. The immersive 3×5 slot title sees heroes The Blue Bolt and Green Archer attempt to thwart the plans of the evil Firestrike. The slot is packed with exciting wilds, multipliers, special quests and a number of other engaging features. Infinity Battle gives players an opportunity to win free spins and bonus picks when three or more Mask of Mystery bonus symbols land on the reels at the same time.

Pragmatic Play, one of the leading software providers for video slots, live casino and bingo, has launched its latest hit, Buffalo King. The 4×6 slot is set on the great plains of America, with the fearsome creatures of the wild filling the reels. Buffalo symbols are stacked on reels and offer significant win potential. When three golden bonus symbols hit the reels at the same time, the free spins mode is triggered transporting players to the plains at night, as buffaloes rampage across the screen. Free spins can be retriggered to earn up to 100 free spins, with wild multipliers up to 5x.

Blueprint Gaming has hit the sweet spot with the launch of its new candy-filled game, Sweet Success Megaways™. In this first release of 2020, any win triggers the candy cascades to allow players to win again and again.
