Week 25/2020 slot games releases
Here are this weeks latest slots releases!
Endorphina’s brand new slot – The Rise of AI – is a 5-reel, 3-row, 10 payline slot game that will bring players right into a new cyber world packed with robots, cyborgs, neon lights, techno music and many uncertainties. After the global pandemic, humanity wanted to keep themselves safe and built AI X-50. But they didn’t expect the AI to seize all power and automate the world they once knew. Because of this, most people lost their jobs, live under the poverty line, and are struggling to survive. To keep society afloat, the AI randomly gives away some money.
Zynga Inc. , a global leader in interactive entertainment, announced the initial release of a new feature, Dragons of Westeros, for the hit mobile game Game of Thrones Slots Casino, inspired by the acclaimed Game of Thrones television series from HBO®. This new feature begins rolling out today on the heels of the game’s one year anniversary, putting the most powerful beast from the realm into players’ hands. In this new feature, players that have reached level 20 will receive an egg that incubates an infant dragon. Once born, players will name and feed their hatchling, growing it from hungry newborn to powerful creature, bringing fire and strength to their efforts to rule all of Westeros.
Habanero has announced the network-wide launch of its latest action-packed video slot, Scopa. The thrilling new release invites players aboard an unforgettable train journey through some of Italy’s best-known cities, enjoying the country’s most popular card game of the same name along the way. A proud national tradition dating back to the 18th century, Scopa (meaning broom) awards points for those who ‘sweep’ the table by matching another player’s card and is counted among Italy’s most-loved games.
Climb up Mount Olympus and battle mythological creatures in the search for the mighty griffin in Kalamba’s latest slot title, Griffin’s Quest. The mythical Medusa, fierce Manticores, pixies and unicorns feature in this epic title packed with engaging features to keep players entertained as they chase the big wins. The 6×5 high-volatility slot offers a timeless theme with high win potential making it a great addition to operators’ lobbies. As well as featuring Kalamba’s signature HyperBonus feature which allows players to shortcut to the Frees Spins rounds, Griffin’s Quest also offers progressive free spins, the Wheel Bonus and the Magic Split Symbol.
Pragmatic Play, a leading content provider to the gaming industry, has released a thrilling new title, Three Star Fortune. The 3×5 video slot sees the three ancient Chinese Gods of Wealth meet on the reels to bless players with huge wins. Each God symbol acts as an Expanding Wild, filling the reels with winning combinations. If all three Gods converge on the reels on a single spin, then a respin is triggered and will stay activated if Wilds continue to land. With multipliers of up to 500x, Three Star Fortune has players immersed in the culture of luck, promising considerable wins.
Play’n GO announced the release of Troll Hunters 2 into the market today, a sequel to their hit 2013 slot Troll Hunters. After a hugely successful exclusivity period with Kindred, Trolls Hunters 2 is now being introduced to the market on general release. The game was a big hit with the operator who announced it in September last year with a campaign under the hashtag #2019GameOfTheYear. Troll Hunters 2 is a gridslot centred around the Troll Hunters, Ylva, Borghild and Astrid, protecting their village form a fearsome troll threat. Once again, Play’n GO have taken their popular gridslot format and tweaked it to bring a new dimension to their brand of entertainment.
Evoplay Entertainment has announced the launch of its immersive new slot title, Fluffy Rangers. The game sees five charming forest friends compete for the prized title of ‘Knight of Rabbitland’ in an epic jousting contest set in a magical faraway forest. Players enjoying the Tournament Free Spins Round are encouraged to collect all five Fluffy Rangers symbols, at which point Wild ranger symbols burst onto the reels for a thrilling chance to win big. In an industry-first for social media marketing, the game’s lovable characters can also be used as face filters on Instagram for players in search of a fully interactive entertainment experience.

BOS releases report on the prevalence of gambling addiction in Sweden
Sweden has seen a long‑term decline in gambling addiction over the past 25 years, despite rapid growth in online gambling availability, advertising, and mobile gaming.
Economist Ola Nevander’s research for the Swedish Trade Association for Online Gambling (BOS) shows that the prevalence of problem gambling has steadily fallen since the early 2000s, even as the market expanded. This trend emerged even with the widespread adoption of digital gaming products and 24/7 access on smartphones.
According to the findings, the proportion of Swedes classified as problem gamblers (based on the Problem Gambling Severity Index) dropped from about 2.2 % in 2008–09 to around 1.3 % by 2021, marking a significant reduction in overall gambling harm.
Gustaf Hoffstedt, Secretary General of BOS, emphasizes that this decline suggests Sweden’s regulatory and industry efforts are moving in the right direction. While the transformation from traditional physical gambling venues to digital platforms has raised concerns, online tools such as responsible gaming technologies and AI‑assisted safeguards are helping reduce problem gambling rates.
However, Hoffstedt cautions that much work remains, because expanded game offerings and persistent advertising mean ongoing responsibility is crucial to maintain and deepen the downward trend.
