Vegangster Launches Fully Integrated Lootboxes as a Native Platform Feature
Vegangster has introduced lootboxes as a native platform feature, giving operators a new way to drive player engagement and generate additional revenue. Early adopters are already seeing a noticeable share of total GGR coming from this mechanic
Unlike third-party game integrations, Vegangster lootboxes are fully embedded into the platform. Operators retain direct control over configuration, performance logic, and lobby placement, and the feature operates on a significantly lower revenue share than third-party game content.
“Brands already using lootboxes are generating between 5 and 7 per cent of their total GGR from lootboxes within the first month,” said Michael Oziransky, CPO at Vegangster.
The lootbox mechanic follows a model familiar from video games. Players purchase a lootbox for a fixed price and receive a reward based on predefined probabilities. Depending on chance and configuration, the reward may exceed the value of the initial purchase.
Operators define how lootboxes work at both the technical and commercial levels. Prize types, win probabilities, and RTP logic are set directly within the platform, allowing lootboxes to support different use cases, player segments, and commercial strategies. Rewards can include cash, digital items, NFTs, physical prizes, or other operator-defined assets.
Once a reward is received, players can keep it or sell it back for cash. This keeps the player flow simple and transparent, while giving operators multiple ways to structure value and payouts.
Operators can use lootboxes in promotional campaigns, offering lootbox free spins to players, affiliates, or other partners. Different lootbox configurations can support different goals, from player acquisition to retention.
Lootboxes are the first in a series of platform-native mini-games rolling out through 2026. The upcoming releases will include quick, session-based mechanics inspired by crash games, alongside new social engagement features.

Celtic Coins
Spinomenal expands Hold & Hit 3×3 series with Celtic Coins
Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has launched its newest release, Celtic Coins – Hold & Hit 3×3, expanding its popular Hold & Hit 3×3 series with a charming Irish twist.
Set against a lush emerald backdrop with a golden border, the game pairs a light-hearted, Irish-inspired soundtrack with a visually engaging 3×3 reel layout. Players encounter a golden Pot of Gold Wild, substituting for all symbols except the Bonus and Bonus Collect. The Bonus symbol appears on reels one and three, while the Bonus Collect is exclusive to reel two.
Landing a Bonus Collect alongside one or more Bonus symbols triggers the Bonus Game, where the triggering symbols remain locked in place. Players fill empty spots and can earn multipliers ranging from x1 to x15 of the total bet. Jackpots include the Mini (x25), Minor (x50), Major (x150), and Grand Jackpot (x1000), with the chance to win up to x5000 the total bet for hitting the maximum. Every Bonus or Bonus Collect symbol refreshes the spin counter to three, keeping the excitement high.
Additionally, the Bonus Blast Feature can activate randomly during the base game, adding more Bonus and Bonus Collect symbols to help trigger the Bonus Game.
Omer Henya, Co-CEO of Spinomenal, said:
“Celtic Coins – Hold & Hit 3×3 is another classy addition to our growing Hold & Hit 3×3 series. The coin-locking feature is on the money and makes for an incredibly exciting reel experience that is perfectly complemented by the jackpots and multipliers on offer.”
The launch reinforces Spinomenal’s commitment to innovative, feature-packed slots that combine visually rich themes with rewarding gameplay mechanics.
