Red Bull has announced Red Bull Golden Letters, a spectacular two-day Tekken 7 event that will see grassroots UK players compete for a chance to battle the very best in the world, which will be hosted at the Red Bull Gaming Sphere in London on  Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th March.

The epic new event will feature Red Bull’s Tekken superstars Arslan Ash and Hoa ‘Anakin’ Luu, widely recognised as two of the best fighting game players in the world, as they take on UK players, as well as star in an epic 5-on-5 Europe vs The World exhibition match.

In typical Red Bull fashion, Red Bull Golden Letters features a unique format that places an emphasis on producing perfect plays and showing poise under pressure to earn ‘Perfect’ and ‘Great’ scores – Tekken’s iconic ‘Golden Letters’. Players who manage to achieve three ‘Perfect’ or ‘Great’ scores automatically win the entire set in the epic ‘First to Three’ clashes. Incentivising high risk for high reward plays, Golden Letters switches up the traditional Tekken gameplay for unforgettable matches and moments.

Red Bull Golden Letters is open to all UK and EU Tekken 7 players or fighting game fanatics, with sign-ups now open. The event will let amateurs and pros alike fight it out at the Red Bull Gaming Sphere to showcase their skill under pressure in the unique format and be crowned Red Bull Golden Letters Champion and live on stream on twitch.tv/redbull.

Two of the world’s best Tekken stars, Arslan Ash and Hoa ‘Anakin’ Luu, will be joined by several other renowned pros who will enter into the latter rounds of the competition to give UK grassroots players and aspiring professionals a once-in-a-lifetime chance to test their mettle. The event will also feature ‘Beat the Pro’ challenges throughout the weekend to take on all contenders, live on stream.

The event promises to end in a flourish, with a five-on-five Europe Vs The World clash. The Exhibition match will feature Red Bull Players Anakin and Arslan Ash, as well as several other Tekken stars to be revealed at a later date, offering an unforgettable spectacle for the fighting game community.

Red Bull Golden Letters will be broadcast from the Red Bull Gaming Sphere in London and live on twitch.tv/redbull

Soft2Bet launches MEGA Islands, a new gamification engine designed to increase player retention

Soft2Bet has unveiled MEGA Islands, the latest addition to its MEGA Suite, designed to enhance player engagement and retention across both casino and sportsbook offerings.

The new engine introduces a persistent progression system that carries over across sessions, giving players an ongoing reason to return. Through island-building, resource collection, and continual advancement, players embark on a long-term journey that transforms short play sessions into sustained engagement.

First previewed in Soft2Bet’s recent Lodur release, the MEGA Islands system allows players to develop their own islands over time. Resources earned through gameplay can be used to construct new buildings, upgrade existing structures, and unlock further stages of progression. Each upgrade opens new goals, creating a loop of continuous advancement that keeps players invested.

The engine also incorporates plundering mechanics, giving players an additional path to gather resources by raiding other islands. This feature not only accelerates growth but also maintains a dynamic and engaging progression loop. With no fixed endpoint, MEGA Islands is built to encourage repeat play through a satisfying cycle of building, collecting, and advancing.

MEGA Islands is designed to make retention feel natural by providing players with a progression journey they want to return to,” said Yoel Zuckerberg, CPO at Soft2Bet. “By building islands, collecting resources, and unlocking upgrades—including through plundering—each session becomes part of a longer experience. It gives players a clear reason to come back while providing operators with a retention tool that integrates seamlessly across casino and sportsbook.”

The launch of MEGA Islands underscores Soft2Bet’s commitment to gamification as a driver of long-term growth. As part of the MEGA Suite, the new engine offers operators a powerful tool to extend player journeys, increase engagement cycles, and deliver consistent value in competitive markets.

Pragmatic Play Elevates Arcade Roster with the Im-Peck-Able Chicken+

Pragmatic Play, a prominent content provider for the iGaming sector, has enhanced its arcade collection with the debut of Chicken+, a retro-themed game showcasing fast-paced action and significant winning opportunities.

Brought to existence with retro 8-bit visuals, the game tests players to evade approaching vehicles and various dangers, leading the chicken safely over the road.

With each lane successfully cleared, the win multiplier increases. Players can withdraw their earnings whenever they choose or try to navigate all lanes for the top reward, but a single random mishap concludes the round as a defeat. Players are able to view the possible winnings and the likelihood of success in reaching each lane to aid in their decision-making.

There are four levels of risk – Easy, Mid, Hard, and Daredevil. Raising the level reduces the number of lanes per round and increases the volatility, enhancing the maximum win potential from 24x in Easy mode to over 3,000,000x in Daredevil.

Blending nostalgic visuals with an eccentric theme, a user-friendly interface, and rapid betting rounds, Chicken+ meets the increasing demand for engaging, fast-paced games.

The title signifies the newest entry in Pragmatic Play’s continually growing arcade collection, succeeding the launches of Plinko+, Spire+, and Mines+.

Sharon McHugh, Director of Public Relations at Pragmatic Play, said: “Chicken+ blends retro charm with simple, high-engagement mechanics. With configurable risk levels and significant win potential, it stands out as another compelling addition to Pragmatic Play’s diverse arcade portfolio, inviting players to test their nerve and cross the road.”
