Orb of Osiris launches exclusively with Entain brands including PartyCasino and Foxy Games before going network wide on the 15^th February

Live 5, the partner of choice slot developer who are behind some of this year’s most popular titles, is taking players into the deep dark depths of an ancient Egyptian tomb in search of treasures and big wins in its latest blockbuster release, Orb of Osiris.

The game, which launches exclusively with Entain, the leading global sports-betting and gaming group formerly called GVC Holdings, from 14^th December before going network wide on 15^th February 2021, sees players faced with three layers of symbols which they must clear through in order to reach the Orb and the treasures within.

When a win occurs, the symbols involved in the win are removed and new symbols are unveiled underneath. Wilds are available on levels one and two while level three is where the Bonus symbols are found and where the bonus games can be triggered.

This includes Progressive Multiplier Free Spins which are triggered when four Bonus symbols are revealed anywhere on the reels, with 10 Free Spins awarded plus an additional spin for each extra Bonus symbol that appears.

Free spins consist of infinite layers and a progressive multiplier. If players are able to reach level three within Free Spins, the Free Spins bonus is retriggered for additional 1-3 spins and once processed another symbol will reveal below the bonus symbol. The Progressive Multiplier increases by 1 before a win is paid and sees each win increase the multiplier x1 for some truly amazing wins.

If players become stuck when trying to clear the levels, then there is a chance the Orb Modifier will kick in and remove up to eight lines from the current layer to reveal the symbols below.

Orb of Osiris sits at the high end of the volatility scale and has a return to player of 94.47%. It is certified for launch in the UK, Spain, Sweden, Denmark and Malta, as well as in Canada with Loto Quebec and the British Colombia Lottery Corp.

Lloyd Butler, CEO of Live 5, said: “The team have done an incredible job with Orb of Osiris and in particular with the level system that makes players feel like they are venturing deeper and deeper into the tomb with every spin.

“The innovative math and mechanics have been combined with stunning visuals, atmospheric sound and a great range of features that ensure players have the chance to win big with every spin.

“This is one of our most complex and compelling games to date and we are delighted to see it launch exclusively with our friends at Entain before going network wide in February. We really do believe it has the potential to be one of our most successful games to date.”

Alex Ratcliffe, Head of Slots at Entain, said: “We are excited to be able to offer our customers Orb of Osiris for an exclusive period. This is the second title in our Omni series with Live 5 and the way the team have married rich graphics with engaging game mechanics makes this an attractive prospect.

“At Entain everything we aim to do is, ‘For the good of entertainment’ and we expect Orb of Osiris to both entertain and excite our players.”

Belatra, the innovative online slots developer, is back with the highly anticipated sequel to its hit Blast the Bass, introducing Ice Bass.

The familiar fisherman returns, swapping summer gear for a heavy-duty parka and an ice drill, ready to fish beneath a frozen lake for a maximum win of 5,000x. Each spin is accompanied by an energetic soundtrack that intensifies as players progress through the game’s new levels.

Fish icons represent both standard payline elements and credit symbols, with multipliers ranging from 2x to 1000x. The Fisherman-Wild, appearing exclusively in Free Games, collects all visible values on the screen, with multiple Fishermen multiplying the haul.

Players can unlock boosters during the pre-game fishing phase—triggered by three or more Scatters in Free Games—that add Fishermen, extra spins, or guaranteed Fish symbols. The round continues until the dreaded Old Boot is hooked, with the Booster panel stacking rewards and multipliers as the feature progresses.

Hot Mode, activated by five Scatters in the base game, immediately awards active multipliers and additional games. Players can increase Scatter frequency with the Bet +25% option or jump straight into Free Games or Hot Mode using the Buy Bonus feature.

Misha Voinich, Head of Business Development at Belatra, commented: “Get your winter gear ready for our slick new Ice Bass, a worthy follow-up to the much-loved Blast the Bass. We wanted to create a game that packs the same punch as the original but in a thrilling winter setting—and the team has delivered a game that’s scorching hot even below zero!”
