Inspired Entertainment, Inc., a prominent B2B supplier of gaming content, systems, and solutions, has announced the introduction of Luck It Up!™ and Centurion Winner Grand Chance™, now accessible to operators in the UK and Maltese iGaming sectors.

Luck It Up!™ is the newest addition to the immensely popular Cash Bank series, featuring an Irish theme this time. The game features a Free Spins Bonus that activates when four or more four-leaf clover cash symbols appear in the base game, granting eight free spins. A pseudo-persistence element gathers cash symbols while playing the base game to increase the Cash Bank and randomly activate the Wheel Bonus Game, allowing players to spin for more free spins, access the Cash Bank Bonus, or one of four Prize Pots: Mini, Minor, Major, or Grand. Extra options such as Bonus Buy, Fortune Spins, and Gamble provide players with more opportunities to boost their winnings or quickly access the Free Spins Bonus round. Luck It Up! becomes part of Inspired’s growing collection of enjoyable medium-volatility, Irish-themed games, aimed at providing seasonal thrills and all-year amusement.

Centurion Winner Grand Chance™ expands on the achievements of the award-winning Golden Winner Grand Chance™, now featuring Inspired’s iconic Centurion character. In the core game, Bonus symbols accumulate in a golden coin pot, leading to the activation of the Free Spins Bonus, where players choose their number of spins and initial position on a progression trail. Upon arriving at the trail’s end, a formidable x10 multiplier is triggered on all Centurion collectors, resulting in significant win possibilities and thrilling celebratory gaming experiences. The Grand Chance coin enhances the experience by offering one of four prize pots, introducing jackpot-style excitement to a well-established mechanic that combines known gameplay with a cherished theme.

Claire Osborne, Managing Director of Interactive at Inspired Entertainment, said: “These launches highlight our focus on delivering content that blends proven mechanics with strong themes players can instantly connect with. Luck It Up! re-enforces our strength as the home of the seasonal game, joining a growing portfolio of fun Cash Bank titles that resonate greatly with players globally. Centurion Winner Grand Chance features one of our most beloved characters, the mighty Centurion, and pairs him with the hugely popular Grand Chance mechanic, a combination that’s a recipe for success! Together, these titles showcase how we continue to evolve familiar gameplay in ways that keep players engaged and excited.”
