Go Wild with new Play’n GO Slot Title Wild Blood II

Published

on

 

Play’n GO released their newest title into the market today, Wild Blood II, a fantasy-themed vampire sequel to their 2013 slot Wildblood.

The release continues the slot specialists commitment to releasing a record number of games for 2020 and, if their releases so far are anything to go by, there will be a wide range of themes and game types in their slate throughout the year.

Wild Blood II sees the action upgraded from the original 5×3 grid with 15 paylines, to a 6×4 payways grid featuring over 4,000 payways.

Set during the era of the American Civil War, the game sees the return of Dracula and his three undead brides Margaret, Rebecca and Laura; three southern belles whose beauty conceals their true bloodthirsty nature.

CEO Johan Törnqvist spoke about the latest release:

“Wild Blood was a very popular title for us, and we felt the time was right to give these characters another outing.

But we also wanted to ensure that we gave a new gaming experience, not just repeating the same game over again, so we have incorporated a new grid format and paytable, and more of a contemporary design to give players something new.”

Wild Blood II is available to play online today.

Reading Time: < 1 minute

In response to recent questions around the presence of non-Gamstop casino content on our platform, HIPTHER would like to clarify its editorial stance. While such articles were accepted as part of past collaborations, we do not endorse gambling among self-excluded individuals, and these posts do not reflect our future publishing direction. As a global B2B media company, our commitment remains firmly rooted in ethical content, industry transparency, and responsible gambling advocacy.


A Note on Our Editorial Policy Regarding Non-Gamstop Content

Recently, we published a limited number of articles that referenced non-Gamstop casinos — platforms operating outside the UK’s regulatory framework. While these were accepted as part of wider editorial collaborations, we want to clarify our stance.

HIPTHER does not promote gambling to individuals under self-exclusion, nor is our target audience UK-based players. We are a global B2B media organization covering international markets and industry developments.

That said, we recognize the sensitivity around content related to non-UKGC platforms — particularly in the context of responsible gambling. We’ve reviewed the matter internally and have decided:

✅ We will not be publishing similar content in the future.
✅ We will be updating any existing articles with clear disclaimers and responsible gambling resources.
✅ We remain committed to ethical coverage and transparency in everything we publish.

Our focus continues to be on highlighting innovation, regulation, and forward-thinking trends in the gaming industry — across Europe, the Americas, and beyond. Player safety matters, and we believe media has a role to play in setting higher standards.

The HIPTHER Editorial Team


We Welcome Dialogue

We remain open to feedback and collaboration with partners, readers, and stakeholders who share our values around ethical industry coverage and player protection. For comments or inquiries, please contact us.
