Pragmatic Play, a leading content provider to the iGaming industry, kicks off the New Year by welcoming players to try out its latest spellbinding slot title, Magician’s Secrets™.

Providing players with an impressive 4,096 ways to win and a randomly triggered expanding Wild feature that provides multiplier values worth up to 10x the bet.

The Magician always has a trick up his sleeve, but he also hides some big wins up there too. Wild symbols help players complete winning paylines, while landing three Scatter symbols will trigger the Bonus Round.

However, players will be presented with two Bonus round options when this is triggered, including the Expanding Wilds Bonus Round and the Sticky Wilds Bonus Round.

Expanding Wilds awards players with 10 free spins, a multiplier that increases with each respin, and the opportunity to retrigger them, while Sticky Wilds awards eight free spins and an extra three spins for each reel players fill with a pre-selected Sticky Wild symbol.

Premium symbols pay anywhere up to 100x the player’s stake for six of a kind wins, and the Magician’s Wild steps in for all paying symbols to help complete winning combinations.

Magician’s Secrets™ arrives shortly after recent releases Crystal Caverns Megaways™, Smugglers Cove™ and festive hit Christmas Big Bass Bonanza™, which reside amongst a collection of over 200 HTML5 titles in Pragmatic Play’s award-winning games portfolio.

Yossi Barzely, Chief Business Development Officer at Pragmatic Play, said: “We are thrilled to be able to start the New Year as strongly as we ended it, with Magician’s Secrets™ setting the standard for what is to arrive over the next 12 months.

“The game is littered with Wild symbols that can have a huge impact over the base game and the Bonus Rounds, so players can expect to enjoy a huge variety of different wins and multipliers.”

Pragmatic Play currently produces up to five new slot titles a month, while also delivering Live Casino, Virtual Sports and Bingo games as part of its multi-product portfolio, available through one single API.

Wrap up warm this festive season with some retro-inspired slot action

Popular iGaming content provider BGaming invites you to cosy up to the fire and hit spin with the release of Totally Hot. This dynamic new title combines classic slot elements with modern gameplay mechanics.

Taking into account its December launch, BGaming dressed up the game for the season: the action is brought to life with bold visuals and festive animations, with roaring hot flames filling the background and Christmas candy canes bordering the reels. Totally Hot will revert to its original version when the holiday season is over.

It is not only the game’s visuals that have been given a modern makeover. Totally Hot deploys a pay-both-ways payment mechanic across its 5×3 game grid, giving players the chance to win with matching combinations in both directions across the reels. Wins go from left-to-right, right-to-left, and even begin in the middle of the reels.

There is also the potential for a festive treat to drop in the middle of the grid in the form of an Expanding Wild, holding players’ attention with the action on every spin.

Totally Hot keeps the good times rolling thanks to a low-volatility maths model that entertains players with frequent wins. This is complemented by an extremely attractive RTP of 97.21%.

Vasili Pauliuchenko, Game Producer at BGaming, said, “The holidays are here, and we wanted to provide our players with the bright and warm gift of nostalgia this Christmas. Totally Hot has been designed to captivate new players and seasoned classic slot lovers alike, keeping them engaged with wins coming from literally every direction.

The game’s blazing vibes and low volatility serve up plenty of laid-back fun.”

Evoplay, the award-winning game development studio, has launched Young Eagle Song, a dynamic new Hold & Win title set above the snow-capped mountains of North America.

The game follows the eagle as it soars through storm clouds, with each spin offering the chance to discover the treasures hidden in the sky. Landing six or more bonus icons instantly triggers the Hold & Win round, where gold coins lock onto the reels and players get closer to the Mini, Major, or Grand jackpots.

Young Eagle Song offers a classic Hold & Win experience with a sharp, focused rhythm. The feature starts with three spins, resetting to three each time another coin lands. Each Bonus icon reveals a prize value ranging from 1x to 15x the stake, or one of the game’s fixed jackpots. Collecting all 15 positions wins the Grand Jackpot worth 1,000x, reaching its climax.

Players seeking direct access can utilise the bonus buy option, worth 32x the total bet, which instantly activates the feature with six coins already secured on the reels.

Ivan Kravchuk, CEO at Evoplay, said: “Young Eagle Song captures the raw force of nature in a simple yet powerful format.

“We wanted to offer a clean, engaging Hold & Win experience with clear progression and strong win potential, brought to life through striking visuals and a bold atmosphere.”

Reflex Gaming, the UK’s largest independently owned omni-channel supplier, is delighted to announce the launch of Big Game Fishing Christmas Catch, the latest title in one of our most successful game brands to date.

Released in collaboration with Yggdrasil, this festive instalment brings a sleigh-full of new features, big-win potential and the unmistakable charm that has made the Big Game Fishing series a standout performer across markets.

Big Game Fishing Christmas Catch reels players into a joyful seasonal adventure with Fred the fisherman, who returns with a glittering tackle box of new mechanics. Players can choose between two base game modes, including Max Play, where the reels are stripped back to only Fish, Fishermen and Bonus symbols for pure catch-chasing momentum. Activating Golden Bet adds extra excitement, awarding an extra chance of winning free spins whenever two Bonus symbols land.

The Free Spins round ramps up the action even further. Depending on the number of Bonus symbols landing, players can begin with up to 20 spins, starting at higher levels with added trail progress. Throughout the feature, Fishermen collect all Cash Fish in view, apply their multipliers and push players to fill the 9-stage trail toward progressively bigger catches. Every three Fishermen collected, upgrade the fish values, award 10 extra spins and unlock the next level – culminating in the thrilling chase for the 5000× Golden Pike. Fishermen can even lock onto the reels while waiting to reel in the next big win, boosting anticipation and engagement.

Additional highlights include the Hook a Bonus feature, where fishing rods can appear after a base game spin to pull bonus symbols onto the reels, a Dual Gamble feature, offering two gamble wheels (one for bigger cash prizes, and the other for free spins), and a Bonus Buy option where players can pay x125 to buy Free Spins with their choice of bet size.

Mat Ingram, Chief Product Officer at Reflex Gaming, said: “Big Game Fishing has become one of our most successful and recognisable brands, so delivering a festive edition felt like the perfect next step. Christmas Catch brings a joyful twist to the core mechanics while adding new layers of anticipation and player choice. The big-win potential is enormous, and the upgrade trail in Free Spins creates some of the most exciting moments we’ve produced in the series. We can’t wait for players to dive in.”

Big Game Fishing Christmas Catch launches 9 December across Yggdrasil’s network of operators.
