Relive The 90’s With Slam Dunk As The Fan-Favourite Basketball Gaming App Comes To AppGallery
The SLAM DUNK app is based on the world’s best-selling anime basketball series and classic manga from Eisner Award nominee Takehiko Inoue
Huawei, the world leading technology company, announced it has partnered with Hong Kong’s leading game distributor, ForShow Games, to bring its latest mobile basketball game, SLAM DUNK, to HUAWEI AppGallery – available for immediate download in the UK, France, Germany, Spain and Australia. Roll-out across other European markets, including Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Portugal and Ireland is expected from March onwards.
Just in time for the highly anticipated arrival of SLAM DUNK the movie, which sent fans into a frenzy when it was announced on social media by creator Inoue Takehiko earlier this year, the SLAM DUNK app is based on the 1990’s iconic Japanese manga, which recently celebrated its 30th anniversary.
The series has been beautifully remastered to create an incredibly immersive mobile gaming experience, whilst maintaining the stylistic references and much-loved characters from the original manga, that many fans came to know and love. The game explores the life of Hanamichi Sakuragi and his journey from an outsider at a new school, to discovering his love and passion of basketball and achieving his dream of entering the National Championship.
Featuring single player as well as competitor modes, including 2V2 and 3V3, SLAM DUNK is the perfect game for playing alone, or with friends and family. Single player mode offers gamers the chance to improve their skills with personal training, helpful for getting to grips with the court, whilst multiplayer mode enables users to tackle opponents and easily track player rankings.
With smooth graphics and the authentic style of the original magna, SLAM DUNK lets gamers choose from a wide selection of original characters, ignite their passion for basketball, and enjoy battling with friends, anywhere and anytime, as they move through the ranks on-court whilst showing off skills synonymous with the original anime, such as “Solid Defence” and “Gorilla Dunk”.
Peter Gauden, Head of WEU EcoSystem Marketing at Huawei CBG commented: “We are committed to bringing the biggest, most iconic apps and services to AppGallery to our 42 million monthly users across Europe. With mobile gaming becoming increasingly popular, SLAM DUNK offers a classic, yet remastered experience that will help awaken childhood memories and offer an escape from the everyday, courtesy of the world’s best-selling basketball anime series.”
Frank Zhang, CEO of ForShow Games added: “We’re thrilled that SLAM DUNK will now be more widely available thanks to AppGallery, offering more of the original manga’s fans the chance to re-embrace the basketball classic. With such a huge user base, AppGallery is the perfect partner for helping gamers try a new gaming challenge and become a basketball legend.”

GoldenRace launches V5 mobile solution with unified app and WebGL branding
GoldenRace has launched its next-generation V5 mobile solution, the supplier announced on 1 July 2026 in Malta. The company positions the release as a mobile delivery upgrade for its virtual sports and betting content, aimed at maintaining performance under high player traffic.

On product features, GoldenRace said V5 introduces “advanced WebGL capabilities” to support high-fidelity graphics and operator-controlled branding. It also adds native gamification tools across games, including custom Tournaments, Leaderboards and Free Bets.
The company also outlined three mobile upgrades intended to reduce friction in the betting flow: a Lobby with modular layouts and a one-click toggle between scheduled and instant views; a next-generation Betslip with richer visual components and “smart organisation”; and dynamic Leaderboards with configurable funding and custom point logic.

API
St8 adds game round replays to its single API platform
Replay tool builds on St8’s graphical game round details and launches first with nine casino game studios.
St8 has launched game round replays, adding visual playback of completed casino game rounds to its existing single API platform. The company said the feature is designed to help operators verify outcomes faster and resolve player queries more efficiently.
The new capability builds on St8’s graphical game round details, which it said is already used by operators. With replays, support and operations teams can access a round’s visual playback to investigate gameplay disputes and respond to players with more transparency.
St8 also positioned the feature as a player engagement tool, with operators able to surface notable moments such as big wins and bonus rounds for promotional use.
Game round replays will initially support titles from AvatarUX, BGaming, Endorphina, Hacksaw, Peter & Sons, Pragmatic Play, Scatter Kings, Shady Lady, and Tequity Originals, with more providers to be added. St8 said the feature is delivered through its existing single API integration and requires no additional development work, and is intended to scale across multiple brands and regulated markets.
David Fall, Business Development Manager at St8, said: “Operators are under increasing pressure to deliver exceptional customer support while keeping operational costs under control. Our graphical game round details have become a trusted and widely used tool for operators, giving support teams quick access to the information they need to resolve player queries efficiently. Game round replays complement this capability by providing a visual playback of each round, helping teams resolve cases even faster and with complete confidence.
“Beyond operational efficiency, the feature also opens up new opportunities for engagement. Operators can showcase exciting gameplay moments, celebrate big wins and create richer player experiences – all through the same integration. Because game round replays are delivered through our existing single API, partners can access this functionality immediately while continuing to benefit from the simplicity and scalability that sit at the heart of the St8 platform.”
