Yggdrasil and Bang Bang Games Launch YG Masters Title “Ancient Eclipse”
Online gambling content publisher Yggdrasil has launched Bang Bang Games’ first YG Masters title, Ancient Eclipse.
Since time immemorial, Eclipse has been considered as a time of power and mystery, and in this title, players harness this mystic time to capture huge wins from an ancient civilisation.
The 5×4 title sees players aim to land both elements of the Eclipse to trigger huge wins. Moon symbols that land on the reels will transform into special Golden Sun Frames, which will remain sticky on the reels until an Eclipse is triggered.
If a Moon symbol then lands in a Sun Frame, an Eclipse is triggered, causing all Sun Frames to become Wilds. The Eclipse can be retriggered, with each additional Eclipse having an increasing multiplier of 1x, for huge wins.
The Sticky Suns Free Spins mode is triggered if three Warriors land on the reels. During this mode, all Sun Frames remain sticky throughout, even after an Eclipse. Every Moon that lands not only adds a new Sun Frame, but also an extra Free Spin, for giant win potential.
Ancient Eclipse is Bang Bang Games’ debut YG Masters title, after the studio joined the programme in July 2020. The game has been deployed using Yggdrasil’s innovative GATI technology. Utilised by all YG Masters partners, this technology allows developers to employ the preconfigured, regulation-ready, standardised development toolkit to produce consistently cutting-edge content.
Stuart McCarthy, Head of Partner Programmes at Yggdrasil, said: “Our YG Masters program continues to drive innovative content to market and this is evident in Bang Bang Games’ landmark inaugural title, Ancient Eclipse.
“GATI has proven to be an enabler for our partner studios and we can’t wait to see what more comes from them.”
Frank McPolin, Managing Director at Bang Bang Games, said: “We’re delighted to launch our first game as a YG Masters partner, Ancient Eclipse. With a thrilling theme, lucrative Free Spins mode and an artfully crafted environment, we couldn’t be happier and look forward to it being rolled out across Yggdrasil’s partner network, reaching players all over the globe.”

GGBET UA kicks off the “Keep it GG” promotional campaign
A leading gaming brand in Ukraine has launched a collection of ads featuring the tagline “Keep it GG” as part of an extensive communications initiative. The videos are currently being broadcast on Ukrainian TV, online platforms, and the brand’s social media accounts.
“GG” (Good Game) started in video game culture, yet its significance has far surpassed the literal meaning of “well played.” Currently, it symbolizes a worldwide sign of honor and gratitude for the feelings exchanged following a match, no matter the outcome. This concept served as the basis for GGBET UA’s latest marketing campaign. The video series embodies a unique GG atmosphere: rather than using a conventional voiceover, it incorporates complete audio tracks; the narrative features both literal and metaphorical allusions to sports and esports terms, alongside in-game and casino aspects; and prominent Ukrainian footballers are among the main characters.
“Every game, every match, every tournament is a moment that brings people together. For us, it’s important that every interaction with GGBET gives users that good game feeling — an experience that outlives the result and leaves vivid emotions behind, just like after watching a match,” comments CEO of GGBET UA, Serhii Mishchenko.
Going beyond the traditional view of GG also signifies a more profound implication — the brand’s strategic focus. The international brand, which has concentrated on esports for several years and attained significant success in esports betting and collaborations, is now adopting best practices to enhance traditional sports in regional markets. GGBET UA showcases a wider strategy for Good Game via collaborations (FC Dynamo Kyiv, FC Polissya, and the Ukrainian Basketball Federation), by organizing its own events and special projects, including initiatives that blend sports with esports, like the Match of LeGGends: Derby showmatch on the server featuring esports athletes and football players.
The brand’s creative team collaborated with a Ukrainian advertising agency and a Ukrainian production company to develop the commercials. GGBET UA made this choice to assist the local creative sector amid the war.
