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.”

Partnering with MLB Players Inc. strengthens our connection to the league and its star players and creates additional opportunities to engage fans throughout the season,” said Jason Birney, Vice President of Operations at PENN Interactive.

Caesars Entertainment Inc. announced the launch of its first branded, live dealer studio inside one of its world-class destinations made possible through its partnership with Evolution. The debut of the space inside Tropicana Atlantic City in New Jersey marks the second custom studio made for Caesars live dealer offerings on its online casino platforms following the launch of its first such studio in Pennsylvania earlier this year.

Players 21 and older on Caesars’ online gaming platforms Caesars Palace Online Casino, Horseshoe Online Casino, and Caesars Sportsbook & Casino can now enjoy a live dealer experience on mobile that draws inspiration from table game play at the Las Vegas Strip’s most iconic casino, Caesars Palace.

“The opening of this branded studio at one of our Caesars Rewards destinations introduces the newest addition to our ever-expanding online gaming platforms. We’re always striving to marry the world-class experiences our players enjoy at our destinations with the online casino play they love,” said Matt Sunderland, Senior Vice President and Chief iGaming Officer at Caesars Digital.

The New Jersey studio features five blackjack tables, which includes a VIP-exclusive blackjack table, one baccarat table and one roulette table. The tables feature custom felts with imagery and branding from iconic Caesars destinations on the Las Vegas Strip including Caesars Palace & Horseshoe. The studio also caters to VIP players, much like Caesars Rewards destinations, with a VIP-exclusive blackjack table offering an authentic 1-to-1 live high-limit blackjack experience, that could previously only be found in a physical casino.
