Here are this weeks latest slots releases!

The latest Play’n GO release hit the market this week, a 3-reel video slot titled Charlie Chance in Hell to Pay. The game features a new character, Charlie Chance, as he lands himself in hot water and tries to outwit the devil herself to win his fortune. The unique and the retro style of the game are inspired by the works of animators such as Max Fleischer who pioneered the modern age of animation with classic characters like Betty Boop and Popeye. The choice of traditional fruit machine symbols on the grid also add to the timeless feel of this gridslot. This game is unlike anything we have previously seen from the slot supplier; it seems like, once again, they have broken their mould to deliver original, innovative content.

Pragmatic Play, a leading content provider to the gaming industry, has turned up the heat with its latest release Hot to Burn. The title takes the fast and fun gameplay of the traditional fruit machine staple and adds a fiery element with players being able to win up to 1,000x their stake. The 3×5 title offers a classic slot experience as players try to land all five flaming 7 symbols on the reels at the same time to win big.

Blueprint Gaming is rumbling into action with the launch of its latest slot Rhino Rampage, the first to incorporate the developer’s new Lightning Spins bonus concept. Blueprint’s brand-new feature is activated when six or more Lightning Spin Scatter symbols land on the reels, where players are given a minimum of three free spins to win cash prizes, as well claim one of the four in-game progressive jackpots.

iSoftBet, the leading online and mobile casino content provider, has launched its latest Megaways^TM slot title, Dragon Match Megaways^TM. Set in the heart of a sacred Chinese temple, this four-reel game offers players up to 3,136 ways to win and features cascading wins, with players looking to join two golden dragon symbols on the top tracker reel to form a complete dragon and trigger Free Spins. Dragon Match Megaways^TM also features iSoftBet’s unique symbol matching mechanic, where if the two symbols in the top tracker reel are the same, they turn into wilds, as do all matching symbols on the two reels directly below.

Yggdrasil, the innovative online gaming solutions provider, has travelled back to medieval times in its latest smash hit slot, Arthur’s Fortune. The 5×3 video slot contains a host of features for players to feast on as they join King Arthur and his legendary Knights of the Round Table in a quest for riches. The free spins mode is triggered if three or more Scatter symbols land simultaneously, with higher rewards for more symbols. During the bountiful bonus round, players are transported inside the castle where a wheel of fortune transforms a random symbol into wilds, leading to potentially huge wins, with more symbols transforming if more scatters hit the reels.

NetEnt has transformed one of the best-selling arcade games of all time for online slot fans with the release of Street Fighter II: The World Warrior Slot, the new 5-reel, 5-row Cluster Pays video slot emulates the battle mechanics of the original title by pitting the player’s chosen character against opponents and letting the reels decide which fighter is victorious.

Casino content developer WeAreCasino has launched its new slot game Classic Cherries. The game was co-produced by Silver Lining Studios, one of the industry’s leading game development companies. This is the first game developed with WeAreCasino’s brand new Slotbuilder engine. Based on a cult classic theme, Classic Cherries gives the iconic fruits, bells, bars, and sevens, a modern makeover and innovates the retro game’s playstyle. This five-reel, nine-line slot exhibits brand new game features such as winning lines that start from the left or rightmost reel, multiple bonus game levels and mobile gaming enhancements.

Betsoft Gaming has released its latest slot QUEST TO THE WEST, which will take players East to West in search of untold wealth. The new slot features 5 reels and 25 paylines, delivering thrilling gameplay and stunning visuals. This game includes Walking Wilds, Respins, Instant Wins and up to 1260x your bet. Monkey King Walking Wilds will substitute for every symbol – grab three to enter the Free Spin round. Trigger the Quest to the West with three Monkey King Wilds. Each re-spin moves the Monkey King symbol one reel left. The spins will end when all the Monkey King symbols have gone, potentially stacking immense wins. Collect 15 or more Monkey King Symbols and fill up the Meter of the Heavens for an Instant Win of 1000x.
