Playson launches €25m BLASTS & RACES network campaign
Playson has launched BLASTS & RACES, a new global network campaign carrying a €25,000,000 prize pool. The supplier announced the rollout on 1 July 2026, with the campaign running until 30 June 2027.
The initiative follows Playson’s previous Non-Stop Drops & Races edition, which the company said generated record participation from operators and players worldwide. Playson said the new prize pool is up from €10,000,000 in the previous edition.
Operators can opt in at any time during the year-long period, and Playson said no additional integration is required. The company positioned the campaign as a retention tool built around its network engagement mechanics and a mix of top-performing and newly released titles.
As part of the refresh, Playson has renamed several campaign features. Cash Blast is now Power Blast, Tournaments have been renamed Grand Races, and Short Races are now Turbo Races. Playson said the underlying mechanics and integration approach remain unchanged.
Waldemar Antypov, Product Owner at Playson, said: “BLASTS & RACES represents a significant milestone in the evolution of our flagship network campaign, and we are delighted to officially launch it to operators and players around the world.
“Following the outstanding success of previous editions, we have increased the rewards budget from €10 million to €25 million to deliver even greater value across the network. Combined with our trusted engagement mechanics, refreshed campaign identity and seamless operator integration, BLASTS & RACES is designed to keep players engaged with exciting opportunities to win throughout the year.”
