Pragmatic Play has expanded its live casino portfolio with the launch of Amazing Baccarat, a multiplier-driven variation on the Speed Baccarat format, the supplier said on 16th June 2026.

The game retains standard baccarat rules and fast-paced rounds, but introduces “Lucky Cards” mechanics. In each round, five Lucky Cards are randomly selected and assigned multipliers of up to 200x. If the winning hand contains one or more Lucky Cards, their multipliers are added together and applied to the standard payout, which Pragmatic Play said can deliver wins of up to 6,600:1 on main bets.

Amazing Baccarat also introduces a new side bet, “Amazing 8s,” alongside Player Pair and Banker Pair. Players win the Amazing 8s side bet when both hands tie with a score of eight, paying 55:1 before any Lucky Card multipliers are applied—creating a stated win potential of up to 66,000:1.

Sharon McHugh, Director of Public Relations at Pragmatic Play, said: “Amazing Baccarat takes the fast-paced gameplay players love from Speed Baccarat and enhances it with thrilling multipliers and exciting new side bet opportunities.

“The addition of Lucky Cards and the Amazing 8s feature creates extra anticipation in every round, delivering a dynamic experience that stands out in live casino lobbies.”

Million Games has launched East West Wild, a new feature-led video slot inspired by the historic Silk Route, the supplier said on 15 June, 2026 in Skövde, Sweden.

The game runs on a 5×4 layout with 1,024 ways to win. Million Games said consecutive wins increase a Combo Multiplier within each spin, positioning progression as the core mechanic.

East West Wild also uses “Golden Symbols” that transform into Wilds when removed from the reels. The company said these can appear as small or large Wilds, with Big Wilds replacing multiple symbols across the grid.

The Free Spins feature triggers with three or more Scatter symbols and awards 10 spins. During Free Spins, Million Games said a multiplier progresses through levels from x2 up to x10, with retriggers available.

Million Games lists the game at 96.14% RTP, medium volatility, and a maximum win of 1,500x the bet. “East West Wild focuses on progression and clarity,” said Thomas Nimstad, CEO of Million Games. “It combines familiar mechanics with structured multiplier growth, creating a game that is easy to understand while still offering depth and engagement.”

East West Wild is available to operators and aggregators via the Million Games distribution network, the company said.
