Blueprint Gaming brings Christmas early for classic slot fans with Mega Bars Jackpot King
Blueprint Gaming, the leading UK-based games studio, has launched the latest addition to its ground-breaking Jackpot King series, Mega Bars Jackpot King.
The five-reel slot, which is the first title from the Project retail catalogue to be released online by Blueprint following its acquisition of the UK land-based focused company in 2019, uses the classic casino look of Bars and X’s that have been a familiar sight to retail and online players for more than 30 years.
The beauty of Mega Bars Jackpot King is its simplicity, with 10 winlines and a low-tech gaming mechanic which has traditionally proven to drive engagement with bingo players, enhancing cross-sell potential.
As part of the innovative Jackpot King series, the fruit-machine style slot gives players the chance to win big. The Jackpot King progressive system can be triggered from any spin, building the anticipation and entertainment levels for all users.
Wins are paid adjacent for three or more matching symbols on consecutive reels and the bonus symbol triggers free spins in this classic-themed slot.
Jackpot King is proven to increase player engagement across operator sites when utilised as an on-site dedicated jackpot feed promotional banner. Blueprint’s operating partners have taken full advantage of this promotional tool, utilising and displaying the jackpot amounts in a number of creative on-site widgets.
Jo Purvis, Director of Marketing and Relationships at Blueprint Gaming, said: “The Jackpot King series continues to prove incredibly popular. Mega Bars Jackpot King gives players who like their slots with a more traditional theme the chance to get involved and win life-changing sums of money.
“Players used to a classic casino look will feel right at home. Mega Bars Jackpot King is so easy to play and we’re sure it’s going to be another hit for this captivating series of slot games.”

Vera & John International goes live with Cubeia Originals Studio games
Sweden-based supplier Cubeia integrates its proprietary, brandable Originals content into the operator’s offering.
Vera & John International has gone live with Cubeia’s Originals Studio games, integrating the Sweden-based supplier’s proprietary titles into its player offering.
Cubeia said the launch gives the operator access to fully brandable in-house games aimed at supporting engagement and retention. The supplier positioned the Originals portfolio around “provably fair mechanics, gamification elements, and community-driven gameplay,” and said it includes crash and instant-win formats.
Tobias Fogelberg, Chief Commercial Officer at Cubeia, said: “We’re proud to see Vera & John International go live with our Originals. This is exactly what we’ve been building towards—giving operators something that feels truly their own, not just another catalogue of the same games everyone else has.
“The flexibility and branding possibilities are a big part of it, but it’s also about creating games that players actually want to come back to. That’s where Originals make a real difference.”
Cubeia also linked the rollout to its wider product stack, including its Cubeia Nano platform, which it said is designed to give operators “full control” and scalability. The company added it will continue investing in Originals Studio and plans to expand the portfolio with additional titles and features.
