Jackpot King Deluxe added to classic branded title

Blueprint Gaming, the leading supplier of branded slots to the gaming industry, has enhanced its classic game Viz™ inspired by the popular comic magazine, with the new version launching exclusively with Paddy Power Betfair.

The original release marked Blueprint’s entry into the online market and has now been transformed into HTML5, including the exciting addition of the Jackpot King Deluxe progressive system that offers massive win potential.

Coinciding with Viz’s 40th anniversary, the revamped game retains all the crass from the popular hit including iconic characters Roger Mellie and Johnny Fartpants, allowing players to rediscover the timeless slot that first put Blueprint on the map over a decade ago.

During this 5×3 20-line slot, three Showtime Bonus symbols gain entry to the Big Deal round where players eliminate TVs for a free spins offer worth up to 50 spins.

Long-term Blueprint operator partner Paddy Power Betfair is the first to go live with the newly enhanced slot, which will soon be made available to the developer’s global operator network.

Jo Purvis, Director of Marketing and Relationships at Blueprint Gaming, said: “To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the UK’s much-loved adult comic magazine, we’ve put a fresh twist on the game we first launched in the online market some 10 years ago.

“Adding Jackpot King to the gameplay makes perfect sense, providing fans of the original release with an even greater thrill.”

Mike Phelan, Commercial Director at Paddy Power Gaming, said: “We are delighted to be the first operator to launch the new Viz™ slot on its 40th anniversary. With the addition of the Jackpot King and after last year’s £4m winner on Paddy Power, we know how popular these games are with customers. This year, we’re hoping to add another lucky customer into the Punting Hall of Fame and what better game to do it on than this branded slot!”

Gaming Corps goes live with PowerPlay in Ontario ahead of Alberta market opening

Gaming Corps – a publicly-listed game development company based in Sweden, has gone live with Canadian online sportsbook and casino operator PowerPlay.

The agreement brings Gaming Corps into Ontario through one of Canada’s established online betting and casino brands, while also positioning the studio to go live with PowerPlay from day one in Alberta when the province opens its newly regulated online gaming market in July.

The partnership also extends Gaming Corps’ content across all PowerPlay.com markets, creating a broader route to players through an operator with a distinctly Canadian identity.

PowerPlay, which launched in 2018, combines sports betting across more than 40 categories with a casino offering more than 1,200 games, alongside a 24/7 live casino experience. The operator is registered with iGaming Ontario and regulated by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario.

At launch, PowerPlay will introduce players to several of Gaming Corps’ most recognisable content strands, led by the 3 Pigs franchise, including the popular 3 Pigs of Olympus and latest instalment, 4 Gym Pigs: Porky Power.

The roll-out also lands as international football prepares to dominate the summer calendar, with Penalty Champion: Goals to Glory, Goals to Glory Football Fever and Goals to Glory Instant Blitz bringing three distinct football-led releases to PowerPlay’s casino catalogue.

Adding a different tempo to the launch is Banknote Blitz, a fast-paced instant win inspired slot where shifting Win Frames, prize collection mechanics and multipliers can unlock full banknote rewards and wins of up to 5,000x.

Graham Greensmith, Chief Commercial Officer at Gaming Corps, said “Canada is becoming an increasingly important market for Gaming Corps, and this launch puts us in a strong position at exactly the right time. Ontario has already shown what a well-structured regulated market can deliver, and Alberta now represents a significant next step.

“PowerPlay has a clear local brand presence and operates across both sportsbook and casino in a way that fits closely with where we see the market heading. This is a launch that gives us an immediate foothold in Ontario, a clear path into Alberta, and a strong foundation for further growth across wider PowerPlay.com markets.”

Lauren Holder, Head of Casino at PowerPlay said: “PowerPlay has grown by focusing on what Canadian players value: choice, trust and an entertainment experience that feels grounded in this market. Gaming Corps fits well within that approach. Its games bring a distinctive tone and pace to our casino, while also giving us content that can work around key sporting moments and new regulated market opportunities. As we continue to develop our casino proposition, we look forward to working with Gaming Corps and bringing its content to players across all PowerPlay.com markets.”
