This fantastic new Portuguese Celebrities from MGA Games entails an important visual change with a combination of a realistic and comic-style aesthetic.

Once again, MGA Games brings its productions to the world with its localized content. On this occasion, MGA Games has chosen the Portuguese actress and influencer Joana Araujo to star in its Captain Lucky (Capitao Sorte) slot game that launched for the international market less than a month ago. The game has been specially adapted for the Portuguese market, using the image and voice of a character that players easily recognise. The result is a fully immersive game for players in a world full of adventure and excitement.

In the main game, Joana Araujo Capitao Sorte prepares for battle with themed symbols, such as power devices, shields, and robots. The Wild feature is also activated when playing in this screen, and when 3 or more of these special symbols appear, the Free Spins are triggered and players can win up to 20 Free Spins.

A new feature in each game, users play with at least two identical reels, which gives them more chances to win and get up to a maximum of 5 identical reels. The game also includes bonus symbols, and when players get 3 or more of these symbols, they can access the mini-game selection screen. Players have to enter the selection screen several times to unlock the mini-games, one after the other, and once two or more are unlocked, the player can decide which mini-game to play.

This new production includes a total of 3 mini-games. The first “Heroine at Risk” features a roulette wheel with 8 possible prizes, where players have to activate the power device and stop the wheel when they want to win a prize. In the “Unexpected Attack” mini-game, Joana Araujo Capitao Sorte must defeat the robots to get a prize. And finally, the third mini-game is “Star Guardian”, where the super-heroine must defeat a cyborg until the exit sign appears. All the mini-games have a maximum prize of 196 x the bet placed.

Sportradar’s iGaming brand leads with bracket-style World Football x2026, plus updates to Virtual Football and Lucky 6.

Playradar, Sportradar’s iGaming brand, has released four football-themed titles ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which begins on June 11. The drop includes two original games and two updated versions of existing products.

The releases are World Football x2026, Virtual Football World Championship 2026, Football Plinko Pro, and Lucky 6: Football edition. Playradar said the games are designed to target different player segments and to connect sports bettors and casino players through content that links both verticals.

The headline launch, World Football x2026, is a bracket-based game using Mines-style mechanics. Players pick outcomes from the Round of 16 and progress through each round to the final; one incorrect prediction ends the game, while a cash-out option is available.

The other launches include Football Plinko Pro, which adapts the plinko format to a football theme; Virtual Football World Championship 2026, which Playradar said runs a 32-team, 64-match World Cup structure with pre-match and in-play markets such as over/under goals and goalscorer; and Lucky 6: Football Edition, a bingo-style title using balls with flags from participating nations.

Edo Haitin, EVP of iGaming said: “The scale of the 2026 World Cup is unprecedented, with the sheer volume of fans entering markets worldwide creating huge demand for football-themed content, and the operators best placed to succeed are those with games that meet every need. These four titles have each been designed with that in mind. The World Cup attracts a huge spectrum of customers, and when taken together, this product stack provides operators with the tools needed to keep them engaged throughout the tournament.”
