The collaboration brings DEGEN’s unconventional titles to Hub88’s platform, enabling operators to deliver sharp, dynamic content designed to engage modern players.

With a focus on community-driven features and unique in-game rewards, DEGEN’s slots are truly “built by gamers, for gamers”, providing standout content in an increasingly competitive market. The studio’s full portfolio — including Raider Riches, Rave Riot, Sunset Showdown, and upcoming titles 88 Treasures and Vendetta Fury — will be available to Hub88’s operator network via a seamless API, offering bold and fast-paced gameplay experiences.

As part of the partnership, Hub88’s network will gain early access to DEGEN’s content, with additional games and features set to roll out throughout the year. The collaboration reinforces Hub88’s commitment to curating a content library that challenges predictability and pushes the boundaries of traditional gaming.

Leadership Commentary

Ollie Castleman, Managing Director of Hub88, said:

“We are committed to supporting studios that challenge convention and bring fresh energy to the market. DEGEN Studios’ bold releases stand out for their creativity and player-focused design. By integrating their portfolio, we’re enhancing our aggregation platform with distinctive, high-impact content that helps operators differentiate in increasingly competitive markets.”

Danny Gordon, Head of Studio at DEGEN Studios, added:

“DEGEN was founded on the belief that iGaming needs mavericks. Too many titles play it safe, relying on familiar mechanics and predictable loops, and we’re determined to push beyond that. Our partnership with Hub88 gives operators access to content that refuses to blend into the lobby. Their global reach and modern infrastructure make them the ideal partner to help us continue reshaping the slots landscape.”

Relax Gaming, the iGaming aggregator and award-winning content supplier, has once again teamed up with CasinoGrounds to unveil their latest collaborative slot, Beast Gains.

Set against the backdrop of a wild jungle cruise filled with the animal kingdom’s most vibrant characters, Beast Gains delivers relentless action across a 6×4 reel setup. The high-volatility slot blends cascading wins with a maximum win potential of 25,000x the stake, offering players an experience designed for big swings and even bigger rewards.

This marks the sixth collaboration between Relax Gaming and CasinoGrounds, following the success of Book of Power, Iron Bank, Beast Mode, Net Gain, and Iron Bank 2 — titles that have consistently resonated with feature-driven slot enthusiasts.

Feature Trail Drives Continuous Action

At the heart of Beast Gains lies the dynamic Feature Trail, a progression mechanic active in both the base game and Free Spins. As players advance, they unlock a wide variety of upgrades that keep the gameplay evolving, including:

• Mystery Symbols

• Extra wilds

• Explosive chests

• Collectors and persistent collectors

• Coin features

• Additional spins

• Multiplier boosts

• Level upgrades

This layered structure ensures momentum builds throughout the session, keeping the base game just as engaging as the bonus rounds.

Three Distinct Free Spins Modes

Free Spins are triggered by landing three to five scatter symbols anywhere on the reels, awarding six spins and the opportunity to choose from three unique bonus modes:

• Mystery Symbols – Stacked reveals with enhanced payout potential

• Multiplier Ladder – Escalating multipliers that can climb as high as 1,000x

• Coin Collection – Collector mechanics and coin explosions capable of delivering substantial wins

Players can further elevate the bonus by using the Gamble option, which allows them to upgrade their selected mode up to twice, increasing its potential.

Enhanced Features for Bigger Thrills

For those seeking even greater volatility, Beast Gains offers:

• Hot Mode for higher win potential

• Optional Enhanced Bet

• Bonus Reels feature

• Buy Feature, enabling direct access to Free Spins for 85x the stake

These additional mechanics give players multiple pathways to amplify both risk and reward.

Executive Commentary

Tony O’Mahony, Chief Product Officer at Relax Gaming, said:

“Beast Gains will undoubtedly be our game of the quarter at Relax. It carries the look and feel of our previous collaborations with CasinoGrounds, but on a much larger scale. Players who enjoyed Beast Mode and Net Gain will be especially excited to explore what Beast Gains delivers.

“This release embodies everything players appreciate about feature-driven gameplay — constant progression, evolving mechanics, and a base game that is just as engaging as the bonus.

“Working with CasinoGrounds again highlights the strength of our creative partnership. Together, we’ve developed a high-volatility slot packed with all the ingredients needed to become another standout addition to our growing portfolio.”

With its layered progression system, choice-driven bonuses, and significant win ceiling, Beast Gains builds on a proven partnership to deliver a bold new chapter in feature-focused slot entertainment.
