iSoftBet, the leading online and mobile casino content provider, has uncovered a smash hit slot in explosive new title Gold Digger.

The 3×5 video slot focuses on iSoftBet’s lucky prospector, Gold Diggin’ Gus, as he explores a magical mine in search of random modifiers and big veins of gold to collect hidden riches for players.

On any spin Gus can spring into action with his pickaxe and dynamite, adding extra Wilds or Golden Nuggets, or even upgrading low symbols to give higher-paying wins.

If five or more Golden Nuggets land on the reels, the Gold Link Respins feature is triggered, where cash nuggets and gems are collected and every time a new one lands, 3 further respins are awarded.

Four different gems are found during respins, with any matching 3 awarding a Reel Booster: Extra Life gives an extra respin, Multiplier boosts a multiplier to be applied to all final values, Cash Boost increases the value of all nuggets in view, while Reel Boost opens up an extra row above the reels.

Mark Claxton, Head of Games at iSoftBet, said: “Gold Digger is one of the most eagerly anticipated additions to the iSoftBet slot portfolio so far this year. With Gold Diggin’ Gus on hand to help players in their search for riches, he will be a welcome sight whenever he springs into action.

“We continue to add exciting and unique content to our portfolio, and Gold Digger is no different. With a treasure trove of exciting features, we can’t wait to see how it is received by our fans.”

Gaming Corps has secured a conditional iGaming supplier licence from the Alberta Gaming, Liquor & Cannabis (AGLC), positioning the studio for launch in Alberta’s regulated market from day one.

Granted through its subsidiary Gaming Corps Malta Ltd, the licence allows the company to manufacture and supply gaming software in the Canadian province ahead of the market opening on 13 July 2026.

With approval now secured, Gaming Corps continues to accelerate its North American expansion strategy while strengthening its position in regulated markets.

The move gives operators in Alberta access to Gaming Corps’ portfolio of casino games and proprietary game mechanics as the province prepares to open its regulated iGaming framework.

Alex Lorimer, COO at Gaming Corps said: “Securing our Alberta licence marks another important step in Gaming Corps’ regulated market expansion strategy. Canada continues to represent a key growth region for us, and we’re excited to bring our expanding portfolio of games and unique mechanics to operators and players in Alberta.”
