Yggdrasil releases action packed sequel Valley of the Gods 2
Yggdrasil, the innovative online gaming solutions provider, has uncovered Valley of the Gods 2, the exciting sequel to fan-favourite Valley of the Gods.
The original version of the title has proven hugely popular with a demand from players to build this upcoming sequel. With Valley of the Gods 2, Yggdrasil delivers even more thrilling excitement for slot fans to enjoy.
Valley of the Gods 2 has a proven, simple gameplay mechanic which is widely accepted by all player types including casual as well as more demanding players. The game also offers new features, such as collectible wilds, which is a key to higher variance and super big wins up to 5481 times the bet.
The variable reel slot with up to 20,160 ways to win is set in a lost desert landscape. With 33 symbol positions, players are tasked with destroying the Scarab symbol blockers. Every win, aside from creating a respin, releases a white scarab which destroys a blocker. If all blockers are destroyed then extra features can be triggered, such as Win Multipliers, Wild Reels and Extra Lives.
For every five red scarabs collected, a player is awarded an extra life, giving them a further respin once they run out of winning spins. If all lives are spent, the respins feature ends.
The Win Multipliers increase by 1x with every five blue scarabs landing on the reels, again lasting until the end of the respin. The total win is added to a player’s balance after no more winning combinations are present and a player has no lives left.
One Wild Reel is added if five yellow scarabs are collected and stays until it wins.
The title is the latest in Yggdrasil’s growing proprietary slots portfolio, which have recently been expanded by the innovative titles Jackpot Express, Multifly!TM and Lucky Neko Gigablox TM, as well as the company’s YG Masters content, created together with its boutique studio partners.
Jonas Strandman, Senior Product Strategist at Yggdrasil, said: “Valley of the Gods became an instant classic from its simple but deep gameplay and thrilling re-spin rounds. The sequel has everything we loved from the original and more. Packed with plenty of modifiers, Valley of the Gods 2 can turn any spin into a huge win up to 5481 times the bet for our fans across the globe.
“The new wild reel feature shows up on a regular basis and can give huge win combinations and combining it with a multiplier is marvellous. We are confident our partners and their players will love the game.”

GoldenRace launches V5 mobile solution with unified app and WebGL branding
GoldenRace has launched its next-generation V5 mobile solution, the supplier announced on 1 July 2026 in Malta. The company positions the release as a mobile delivery upgrade for its virtual sports and betting content, aimed at maintaining performance under high player traffic.
According to GoldenRace, V5 consolidates its previous architecture into a single application and “drastically reduces load sizes by 80–90%.” The company also said the platform is built “completely from the ground up” with a unified UI/UX designed to remain responsive across different network conditions.
On product features, GoldenRace said V5 introduces “advanced WebGL capabilities” to support high-fidelity graphics and operator-controlled branding. It also adds native gamification tools across games, including custom Tournaments, Leaderboards and Free Bets.
The company also outlined three mobile upgrades intended to reduce friction in the betting flow: a Lobby with modular layouts and a one-click toggle between scheduled and instant views; a next-generation Betslip with richer visual components and “smart organisation”; and dynamic Leaderboards with configurable funding and custom point logic.
GoldenRace said operators can switch to V5 by “changing a single line of code,” and added that a demo is available for operators evaluating the new mobile solution.

St8 adds game round replays to its single API platform
Replay tool builds on St8’s graphical game round details and launches first with nine casino game studios.
St8 has launched game round replays, adding visual playback of completed casino game rounds to its existing single API platform. The company said the feature is designed to help operators verify outcomes faster and resolve player queries more efficiently.
The new capability builds on St8’s graphical game round details, which it said is already used by operators. With replays, support and operations teams can access a round’s visual playback to investigate gameplay disputes and respond to players with more transparency.
St8 also positioned the feature as a player engagement tool, with operators able to surface notable moments such as big wins and bonus rounds for promotional use.
Game round replays will initially support titles from AvatarUX, BGaming, Endorphina, Hacksaw, Peter & Sons, Pragmatic Play, Scatter Kings, Shady Lady, and Tequity Originals, with more providers to be added. St8 said the feature is delivered through its existing single API integration and requires no additional development work, and is intended to scale across multiple brands and regulated markets.
David Fall, Business Development Manager at St8, said: “Operators are under increasing pressure to deliver exceptional customer support while keeping operational costs under control. Our graphical game round details have become a trusted and widely used tool for operators, giving support teams quick access to the information they need to resolve player queries efficiently. Game round replays complement this capability by providing a visual playback of each round, helping teams resolve cases even faster and with complete confidence.
“Beyond operational efficiency, the feature also opens up new opportunities for engagement. Operators can showcase exciting gameplay moments, celebrate big wins and create richer player experiences – all through the same integration. Because game round replays are delivered through our existing single API, partners can access this functionality immediately while continuing to benefit from the simplicity and scalability that sit at the heart of the St8 platform.”
