New Pulse-Pounding ‘Bloodshot: Rising Spirit’ Joins Pariplay Lineup
Pariplay partners with Valiant Comics for heart-thumping gameplay in latest slot offering
Pariplay Ltd., a gaming technology company serving iGaming operators, land-based casinos and lotteries, has partnered with Valiant Comics in launching Bloodshot: Rising Spirit, an online slot based on the legendary character of the same name. Players will embark on a pulse-pounding adventure, enjoying explosive special features like Expanding Walking Wilds, Rising Spirit Free Spins, Desert Storm Free Spins and Valley of Death Free Spins.
Players are immediately immersed into Bloodshot’s world with an introduction taken straight from the famous comic book. Car crashes, explosions and an intense soundtrack dominate the background in this 3-row, 5-reel slot designed to get players’ heart rates soaring. Joining Bloodshot, the red-eyed former soldier with superhero-like abilities, players will be eager to grab their tactical gear and jump into action to shoot down major wins.
An adrenaline-pumping game, the Expanding Walking Wild feature activates when the red Killshot marker lands on Bloodshot. Once marked, Bloodshot expands over the entire reel shifting left in subsequent spins and granting players dynamite winning combinations.
Additionally, action lovers can choose from three killer Free Spins missions: Rising Spirit, Desert Storm or Valley of Death. Missions are triggered when three or more scatter symbols land on the reels.
The Rising Spirit increases multipliers up to 16x. Desert Storm rounds allow wild symbols to become Walking Wilds with a guaranteed 2x multiplier on wins. The Valley of Death functionality turns wild symbols into sticky wilds, with the chance of doubling or tripling wins. All the Free Spins missions initially award slot enthusiasts with 12 free rounds, plus a potential five extra free spins.
Bloodshot: Rising Spirit boasts dual return-to-player (RTP) rates of 96.23% and 94.01%, with translations available in over 20 languages, offering its global audience an experience full of big bangs. Certified by gambling regulators in the UK, Isle of Man and Malta, Bloodshot: Rising Spirit will soon be available for play in Sweden, Romania, Bulgaria, Portugal, Spain and Denmark. The slot is the latest addition to Pariplay’s expanding portfolio of over 100 online casino games.
Richard Mintz, Commercial and Marketing Director at Pariplay, said: “Valiant has been a long-standing partner of Pariplay’s, collaborating with us on a range of games like X-O Manowar and the original Bloodshot. We are very excited for the release of Bloodshot: Rising Spirit and the success it represents for Valiant now that Bloodshot is being turned into a movie franchise starring Vin Diesel. We anticipate both the film and game to be huge hits.”

St8 extends TonyBet partnership to Alberta after securing supplier registration
St8 has extended its partnership with TonyBet into Alberta, expanding their Canada footprint following an earlier launch in Ontario this year.
Under the expanded agreement, TonyBet will use St8’s game aggregation platform through a single API integration. St8 said this provides access to its wider catalogue of casino content for players in Alberta.
St8 said the Alberta rollout follows its newly acquired registration to operate in the province as an iGaming Services Supplier, allowing it to provide aggregation services to licensed operators in the market. The company said its platform connects partners to more than 200 game providers via a single API.
David Fall, Business Development Manager at St8, said:
“Entering Alberta’s regulated market is a strong step for St8 that represents our continued efforts to bring our offerings to as many territories as possible, delivering top-tier results for partnerships at the local, national and international stage. We share this commitment with TonyBet, a company that we are very fortunate to be working with so collaboratively and closely as we continue to grow our presence across North America.”
Kiryl Liudvikevich, Head of Product at TonyBet, said:
“We’re proud that our work with St8 has enabled us to continue expanding across Canada. Through St8’s aggregation platform, we can seamlessly access games from the industry’s leading providers via a single integration, helping us scale efficiently while maintaining a strong focus on the player experience. St8 has cemented itself as our go-to partner for expansion into regulated markets, and we look forward to continuing our collaboration as we grow into new jurisdictions.”

OpenBet reports $3bn staked and 175m bets during World Cup 2026
OpenBet said its platform processed more than 175 million bets and $3 billion in stakes across its global operator customers during World Cup 2026. The supplier published the figures on 22nd July 2026, describing the tournament as its biggest-ever betting event.
The company said England’s run to the semi-finals drove high volumes across its UK-facing customers. OpenBet reported almost 5 million pre-match bets for England vs Norway in the quarter-final, with England vs Argentina close behind at 4.65 million.
OpenBet also pointed to increased demand for player-driven markets. It said 23 million Player Prop bets were processed during the tournament, up 130% versus Qatar 2022, and that the final between Spain and Argentina generated 831,000 BetBuilder bets, 39% more than four years earlier. OpenBet added that ten of the 20 most repeated bet combinations included a Player Goals or Player Stats selection, compared with four in 2022.
In-play betting rose as the knockout rounds progressed, with OpenBet saying live bets reached around one in six bets and carried higher average stakes than pre-match. The supplier said it also provided Managed Trading Services to platform customers during the tournament, covering odds creation, trading content, and risk and liability management.
Beyond sportsbook, OpenBet said its OpenBet Locator
product processed more than 200 million location checks across regulated US states during the World Cup. Nikos Konstakis, President at OpenBet, said: “A World Cup is one of the defining moments for our industry, and this was the largest betting event our platform has ever supported.
“What stands out beyond the numbers is the extent to which player behaviour continues to evolve. Fans are no longer simply backing a result, they are building their own narrative around individual players, and our expanded BetBuilder and Player Prop offering met that demand while delivering the high-margin products operators need.
“Sustained peak load across a six-week tournament is different to managing a single event, and our platform handled it extremely well.
“The highest-profile operators trust us with the events that matter most, and this was the largest of them all.”
