PRAGMATIC PLAY DELIVERS VIVID COASTAL ADVENTURE IN WILD BEACH PARTY™

Pragmatic Play, a leading content provider to the iGaming industry, takes users on a much-needed vacation to an interactive beach environment in the latest slot release, Wild Beach Party™.
The cluster pays title is played out on a 7×7 grid and features symbols based around the exotic fruit found on the island paradise. Five or more matching fruit symbols are required to trigger a successful spin, with fresh symbols replacing winning combinations.
Wild symbols will occasionally appear in empty tumble positions, with starting multiplier values of 2x. After the Wild boosts a win, it will disappear, but if it reappears later in the tumble sequence, the multiplier value is doubled, growing incrementally from 2x, to 4x, 8x and 16x up to a maximum of 256x.
The Bonus Round is triggered by landing three or more scatters anywhere on the reels, awarding a minimum of 10 free spins, with additional free spins determined by the size of their win.
Wild Beach Party’s release comes off the back of recent hits Queenie™, Snakes and Ladders Megadice™, and Extra Juicy Megaways™, 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: “Wild Beach Party™ brings a lot of light-hearted humour to our diverse selection whilst still offering huge winning potential and highly stylised visuals.
“The lively island experience is supported by sharp visuals, intuitive sound effects that keep players engaged, and an impressive collection of features that help land big win.”

Bulgaria first for Push Gaming with Kaizen Gaming’s Betano

Push Gaming has entered the Bulgarian market thanks to an exclusive deal with Kaizen Gaming brand Betano, marking a milestone in its expansion in globally regulated markets.
For 12 weeks, tier-one operator Betano will have exclusive rights to Push Gaming’s portfolio in the country as it brings the studio’s hugely popular titles to Bulgaria for the first time.
Push’s extensive back catalogue of major hits, including Razor Shark, Razor Returns, Jammin’ Jars, Big Bamboo and Wild Swarm, are now ready to be enjoyed by players in Bulgaria, with more recent releases due to roll out imminently.
The launch enhances Push’s relationship with Kaizen Gaming, which has already seen success with its award-winning content in Greece, Denmark, and Brazil.
Agreements with over 15 direct integration partners have been achieved in 2024, and the supplier’s significant growth will be bolstered by several more announcements in the remainder of Q4.
Fiona Hickey, Chief Business Development Officer at Push Gaming, said: “Bulgaria is a territory we’ve been working on for some time, so it’s particularly pleasing to launch there with such an established and respected name as Betano.
“We know the strength of our product, and allied with Kaizen Gaming’s prominent positioning across regulated markets, we can make the most of our regional entries. They’re a fantastic strategic partner to work alongside, which breeds exceptional confidence that every launch period will perform strongly.”
Evangelos Dedoulis, Director of Product, Gaming and Rewards at Kaizen Gaming, added: “Push Gaming is responsible for some of the finest games on the market, and as such, we have been eagerly anticipating bringing them to our Betano platform in Bulgaria too. In other markets where we have integrated Push Gaming’s titles, the reception from our audience has been exceptional, and we expect the same in this case too.”
