The Copenhagen-based company, Vita Media Group is excited to announce a new strategic investment with the acquisition of Trada Casino. In a vision of growth and ambition to set new standards in the iGaming community, this move sets a new milestone for the company.

Jimmi Meilstrup, Chief Executive Officer at Vita Media Group commented on the deal:

“We are more than delighted to add a respected brand as Trada Casino in the company’s portfolio. This investment is vital to our efforts of becoming an important player in the industry and increase the offering to our loyal and rapidly growing affiliate partners. As a Danish company, we stand for trust and transparency and we are sure that Trada Casino and its partners will benefit from being part of our group.”

Trada Casino is a well-known brand in the Igaming industry launched in 2014. The games on Trada Casino website are powered through Aspire Global technology.

What differentiates Trada Casino from its competitors is the reputation it enjoys among the players from different markets. Trada Casino has won the Casinomeister Best Customer Service award in 2016, 2017, and 2018, and numerous other respectful awards which make the casino stand out. And most importantly, Trada Casino passed the Pogg audit and got the deposit guarantee seal.

Tony Stewart-Lord, Director at Trada Casino, believes this acquisition will help Trada Casino to evolve.

“By combining the marketing expertise of Vita Media Group with the reputation of TradaCasino, we see this as the next step in the evolution of the casino. It will allow Trada Casino to leverage the powerful Vita Media Group marketing platforms, resulting in expansion in all our current markets in the EU and beyond.”

One of the first drastic changes for Trada Casino is that it will offer a chance to its players to win extra points, different prizes and rewards at the cross-loyalty platform Ekstrapoint.com. The players at Trada casino will also get the chance to exchange their extra points to products in the Ekstrapoint shop. As for the Ekstrapoint users, one of the new options they will receive in their experience are additional loyalty bonus packages that can be used at Trada Casino.

Ekstrapoint.com is the first and biggest loyalty platform, designed and developed by Vita Media Group, with more than 300 partner casinos and more than 250.000 users. The platform is free to use and its intention is to bring back the fun in casino games for all casino enthusiasts in the world. The platform offers casino competitions and rewards players with extra points every time they play or sign-up for a partner casino offer. Once the players collect a certain amount of extra points, they can use their points in the Ekstrapoint shop.

Rogue Snail and Mad Mushroom moved the console release from June 2 to avoid Path of Exile’s Return of the Ancients update.

Hell Clock will launch on PlayStation 5 and XBox Series X|S on July 14, 2026, with its first major expansion, Cursed War, releasing the same day on consoles and Steam, according to Rogue Snail and publisher Mad Mushroom.

The date was disclosed during the Latin American Games Showcase alongside a new trailer focused on skills coming in Cursed War: youtu.be/cUWtDLd_u6Y.

Rogue Snail said the console edition and expansion were originally planned for a June 2 launch, but were shifted to avoid Path of Exile’s recent Return of the Ancients update.

Cursed War adds a new story act set during the Paraguayan War of 1864–1870, plus “over 10 new environments,” additional skills and relics, new bosses, and new endgame systems including Endless Nightmares and the full version of Ascension, the company said.

Hell Clock is set against a dark fantasy take on real Brazilian history, including the late 19th century War of Canudos, and is built around ARPG progression with roguelike run structure and build customization.

Each £2 line now plays twice per draw night, lifting overall prize odds to 1-in-4.9 and targeting 345 millionaires a year.

Allwyn will launch a new two-round format for the UK National Lottery’s Lotto on Wednesday 10 June, giving players two chances to win from a single £2 line. Tickets for the updated game went on sale Sunday 7 June.

Under the change, each line is automatically entered into two separate rounds on each Wednesday and Saturday draw night. Players still pick six numbers from 59, but two sets of six main numbers and a Bonus Ball will be drawn using two separate machines, meaning a single line can win in one round, the other, or both.

Allwyn said the update improves the odds of winning a prize from 1-in-9.3 to 1-in-4.9. The operator also said it expects the number of Lotto millionaires created each year to increase from around 140 to approximately 345, with jackpots still starting at £2M and rolling over up to five times before a must-be-won draw on the sixth.

Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor at Allwyn, said, “This is a huge moment for players as we enter a new era for the nation’s millionaire maker, Lotto. From now on, every ticket gives you two chances to win for the same £2 price. We’re talking more winners, more excitement and hundreds more millionaires made every year. It really could be you – not once, but twice.”

Allwyn said the jackpot will be shared across both rounds, while other prize tiers remain fixed cash prizes paid per round. The Lotto HotPicks add-on will also shift to a two-round format and remain priced at £1.
