Golden Hero’s latest game is a 3-reel slot elevated with pachinko mathematics – a perfect combo for players around the world.

On 28 September, Golden Hero released their latest online casino slot, Raigeki Rising X30. As many of their games, Raigeki Rising X30 merges the traditional slot games with popular Japanese Pachislo giving the mechanics of the game an extra twist.

Game play and features

The game is easy to understand and has a captivating space theme with upbeat music that creates a fast pace with high expectations. The game has a new exciting reel format with only 7 symbols and 6 paylines and it has a very high payout of up to 9000 times your bet and with infinite chances of retriggering as long as you get a symbol win.

What is Pachislo and Pachinko?

Pachislo machines are very popular in Japan and are derived from the old Japanese game Pachinko. In Pachinko players have to guide metal balls through something that looks like a traditional pinball machine. Pachinko are played in parlors and are extremely popular in Japan. As gaming is still illegal players receive metal balls that they can trade for goods and cash.

Pachislo is the younger sibling of Pachinko. They look like regular slot machines but the main features make them very different from a regular slot. They usually come with an animated story that develops and changes based on the outcome of the reels and are played with tokens rather than metal balls.

Golden Hero’s Pachislos

Golden Hero has teamed up with JTG, Japan Technical Games, to develop and introduce Pachislos to the online casino world. They may look like regular slots, but the similarities end with the number of reels. The player experience is far from regular as the games are packed with extra features as well as graphics and animations accompanied by music and audio effects that set them apart and lift the experience.

Thomas Nimstad, CEO of Golden Hero, has high expectations on the game release. “Raigeki Rising X30 offers more than a traditional player experience.”, he says and continues, “These games offer increased player sessions and spiced with free round offers they become a unique tool for both acquisition and retention.”

Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, will moderate a panel at The Blockchain show on 29^th June, bringing together experts from entertainment, location-based gaming, and content localisation to examine what it takes to build sustainable gaming ecosystems across emerging markets.

The panel, titled “Global Gaming Expansion: Lessons from Untapped Markets,” will structure its discussion across four themes: the growth dynamics reshaping emerging gaming markets; the role of localisation in creating experiences that genuinely connect with new audiences; the infrastructure and communities needed to build gaming ecosystems beyond the game itself; and the lessons and opportunities that will define successful expansion in the years ahead.

Alona Shevtsova plans to frame the discussion around the central challenge for companies looking to expand globally: entering a new market requires far more than bringing an existing product to a new audience. Understanding local cultures, building communities, adapting experiences, and creating ecosystems that allow gaming to grow sustainably are all as important as the product itself.

Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, said:

“The future growth of gaming will come not only from new technologies, but from understanding people — their cultures, communities, and the experiences they want to be part of. Successful expansion will belong to those who can combine global ambition with local understanding.”

The first segment will examine why regions including the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia are becoming increasingly significant for developers, operators, and investors — driven by young audiences, accelerating digital adoption, and new entertainment models creating substantial growth potential. Panellists will explore how consumer preferences differ across markets and what trends among younger audiences are shaping the future of gaming and entertainment.

The third segment will broaden the lens beyond the game itself, exploring the role of location-based entertainment, gaming centres, esports, and experiential destinations in attracting new audiences and building long-term communities. Panellists plan to address how entertainment ecosystems — spanning physical venues, events, and community infrastructure — accelerate gaming adoption in markets where the category is still establishing itself.

Earlier this month, Alona Shevtsova was shortlisted for the 2026 Great British Entrepreneur Awards in the Established Business of the Year category. Her team is also preparing for the Fintech Connect conference in London later this year. Sends will be a leading sponsor of this event.
