As they say in fishing circles, ‘the bigger the bait, the bigger the fish’. The same applies for Booming Games’ upcoming release of Hooked. As Shane Cotter, Booming Games’ Director of Product says “This is a game to really up the stake on. Once the player hits the ‘Fish On Feature’, they get to experience the thrill of high-stakes fishing. Our crew are only interested in netting one of our 3 types of fish per round, maximising the players chance for a full screen of the same major symbol, where they win that symbol’s ‘jackpot payout’.

Slot supplier Play’n GO announced the release of their latest slot title into the market, the 5-reel video slot Coywolf Cash. The game is based around an animal known as the Coywolf; a canid found in North America which is a hybrid of both coyotes and wolves. Not to be confused with coyotes or wolves, Coywolves are extremely clever apex predators that have adapted to changes in their environment, bringing them to the top of their respective food chain The game’s design is influenced by the Coywolf’s habitat, the woodland forests of Northern America, and it is seen in the artwork and imagery used, with animals such as Wolverines, Lynxes and Foxes also being employed as game symbols.

Pragmatic Play, a leading content provider for the gaming industry, has launched a new feature-filled video slot, Release the Kraken. The 4×5, graphic-rich title is set in the depths of the ocean where players are pitted in a battle against the horrifying creature of the deep, the Kraken. The Sunken Treasure Bonus will trigger a sum of multipliers, while the Roaming Kraken Free Spins brings up 10 items among which free spins are hidden. All the revealed free spins will be added up as the player discovers them. The Kraken modifier features include Infectious Kraken Wilds, Colossal Kraken Wilds and Kraken Locking Wilds, resulting in different sorts of win combinations.

For the creation of this slot, Triple Cherry team started to think about the first image that come to your mind when you are thinking about the popular carnival of Rio de Janeiro. This is when the girl who accompanies you during the game was born and became to be an essential character in the game. When you think of Brazil and its carnival, attractive girls, bright dresses, beaches, lights and a very festive atmosphere come to your mind. That is why the main stage is located between palm trees with the city and the beaches of Rio in the background. In this slot fruit cocktails are used as symbols and you could find a sequence of free spins with a lot of fireworks accompanied by party music.

Awards
Slotsoo Awards 2026 Celebrate the Best Casinos and Game Providers
Slotsoo is proud to announce the winners of the Slotsoo Awards 2026, recognising the online casinos and game providers that have delivered the best player experiences over the past year. Now firmly established as an annual celebration of excellence, the awards continue to recognise the companies setting new standards for quality and innovation across the iGaming industry.
Spotlighting the Best Game Providers of 2026
Following last year’s successful debut, the Slotsoo Game Provider Awards returned for a second year to recognise the studios pushing online slots forward through original ideas, engaging gameplay, and consistently high-quality releases. This year’s winners are:

Casino Awards Return for a Fourth Year
Since their debut in 2023, the Slotsoo Casino Awards have celebrated the operators raising the standard for online casino experiences. This year’s winners continue that tradition, earning recognition for excellence across bonuses, withdrawals, gamification, and overall quality. The seven winners for 2026 are:
- The Gambling GOAT – Lunar Spins

- The Loyalty Lord – Valhalla Wins
- The Withdrawal Wizard – Taste Vegas

Recognition That Goes Beyond Popularity
Unlike many industry awards, the Slotsoo Awards are not decided by public voting. Winners are selected by the Slotsoo team after evaluating casino operators and game providers throughout the year. Each nominee is assessed on factors such as player value and innovation.
This approach ensures that both established industry leaders and ambitious newcomers have an equal opportunity to be recognised. Whether it’s a casino redefining loyalty rewards or a game studio introducing fresh mechanics, the awards highlight companies that genuinely move the industry forward.
Other News from Slotsoo.com This Summer
The Slotsoo Awards weren’t the only milestone for the company this summer. In June, the team attended the HIPTHER Baltics & Nordics Gaming Conference in Tallinn, connecting with industry professionals, exploring the latest developments in iGaming, and returning home with plenty of inspiration.
July marked the publication of Slotsoo’s first book, The Casino Player’s ABC, written by Markus Björk, Head of Content. This tongue-in-cheek ABC book for adults takes a humorous look at the ups and downs in slot gaming. Markus Björk comments:
“The awards and the book may seem like very different projects, but they share the same goal. Both are about celebrating what makes this industry unique and helping players navigate it with a sense of humour.”
With another successful awards season, the publication of their first book, and an active presence at industry events, 2026 has been one of Slotsoo’s busiest and most exciting years to date.
