Reading Time: < 1 minute

 

UK National Lottery operator Camelot has announced its third successive year of sales growth following the company’s wide-ranging strategic review carried out in 2017.

A quarter of a century on from launch in November 1994, Camelot grew National Lottery ticket sales for the 2019/20 financial year (1 April 2019 to 31 March 2020) by £698.3 million (+9.7%) – reaching a record £7,905.1 million.

Over the same period, Camelot generated returns to Good Causes of £1,853.1 million – an increase of £198.4 million (+12%), which is even more significant at this critical time as National Lottery Distributors continue to fund vital work across the UK. This commitment will see up to £600 million of National Lottery funding being directed towards UK charities and organisations to help tackle the impact of COVID-19.

“Thanks to this crisis relief package, hundreds of millions of pounds in vital funding has been repurposed to help those most affected by the coronavirus pandemic – providing, among other things, much-needed aid for communities, grants for sport initiatives to keep people fit and healthy, and assistance for thousands of other projects that are in desperate need of funding during this time. Anyone who has bought a National Lottery ticket should know they’ve played their part in making this possible,” Sir Hugh Robertson, Chairman of Camelot, said.

“Three years on from our strategic review, we are seeing growth across all areas of the business. Crucially, our best-ever sales performance has delivered a £200 million boost to Good Causes at a time when the UK needs it most,” Nigel Railton, CEO of Camelot, said.

Pragmatic Play, a leading content supplier to the iGaming industry, has sweetened its Slots selection with the launch of sugary sequel Candy Blitz Bombs.

Building on the popularity and success of the original Candy Blitz game, the new 6×5 Slot can award wins and set off tumbles when eight or more matching sweet symbols land anywhere on the reels in the same spin.

Next to the grid, a progressive multiplier reel increases by 1x after each consecutive tumble before multiplying the overall tumble win. Colourful candy bombs can also hit with random multipliers of between 3x and 500x, which are then added to the multiplier reel to further boost win potential.

Hitting four, five or six scatters awards entry to the bonus game with 10, 12 or 14 free spins respectively. During the feature, which can be retriggered with five additional free spins, the multiplier reel does not reset between free spins, meaning multiplier bombs can set off even sweeter rewards.

Candy Blitz Bombs is the latest addition to Pragmatic Play’s multi-award-winning portfolio, following recent hits such as Release the Bison and Big Bass Secrets of the Golden Lake.

Irina Cornides, Chief Operating Officer at Pragmatic Play, said: “Pragmatic Play journeys deeper into its colourful world of candy with Candy Blitz Bombs, which features a progressive multiplier reel and random multiplier bombs that can boost wins by up to 500x.”
