Malta based iGaming software developer, Just Slots, has just announced the release of its second game, Shogun Skylord, which aims to build on the success of its first game and ultimately soar high into players esteem.

Just Slots’ next game titled ‘Shogun Skylord’ is set to release on the 24th February and harkens back to feudal Japan, but with an avian twist where samurai birds reign supreme. Just as the game plays on historical themes, Just Slots also pay homage to their development history and give players returning features such as two bonus buys – a fan favourite in their debut game, Sugar Heaven. Shogun Skylord also aims to generate a whirlwind momentum with fresh features by offering free spins with progressive multipliers, whilst taking things to another level with a 5×6 reel setup with 40 win lines.

Shogun Skylord stands out with other features such as hot spin which enhances the player’s fortunes by increasing the chance of getting into a bonus round. Alongside this are other lordly incentives like multiple RTPs as well as max wins up to 10,000x. The game will go live with renowned operators in the industry including Njord Group, Rhino Entertainment, Stake, Bitcasino, Sportsbet, Mystino and Highroller.

Commenting on their latest game, Christine Parkhill, CCO at Just Slots said, “Whilst Shogun Skylord marks a bold, stylistic departure from our first game, we are staying true to the excitement and innovation that made our debut game such a success. Our new release will transport players into a vivid historical fantasy, where samurai birds battle for the right to rule. We have dedicated time and effort into this game, honing down on offering striking visuals, immersive storytelling and cutting edge gameplay to create an experience that is both engaging and exciting.”

The aim with Shogun Skylord is to emulate Sugar Heaven’s success, which saw it climb to the top ten game on its debut casino. This was in addition to other impressive metrics such as 34% of players returning to Sugar Heaven, with just shy of 10% of overall users playing over 200 spins per session. All of these represent milestone achievements that highlight the quality of work emerging out of the studio.

Shogun Skylord will go live on the 24th February, with Just Slots third game Book of Arcane 100 soon to follow. Shogun Skylord will also be playable on sites such as Pommi.com, CasinoDays.com, Bitcasino.io and Stake.com. Just Slots is also offering potential players the chance to try it before fully launching in, with a publicly accessible demo live on their website.
