Kalamba Games plays a seasonal card in Joker Max: Hit ‘n’ Roll Xmas Edition
Kalamba Games has sprinkled a generous dose of seasonal joy on one of its most popular games from a much-loved franchise in its latest release Joker Max: Hit ‘n’ Roll Xmas Edition.
The new slot includes the very high volatility that the series is known for, along with numerous tweaks and improvements such as the inclusion of the Hit ‘n’ Roll bonus wheel feature.
Both Cashpots and Free Spins meters build throughout base game play, increasing potential cashpots prizes and the number of starting Free Spins respectively. Landing three Hit ‘n’ Roll symbols triggers a prize wheel.
Spinning the wheel can award different outcomes including winning one of six Cashpots, Free Spins, which are available in different variants or an instant cash prize. Free Spins are split into three types with 2x, 3x or 5x Wild Multipliers being attached throughout the round.
Joker Max: Hit ‘n’ Roll Xmas Edition also contains HyperBonus, which allows players to instantly buy the Hit ‘n’ Roll feature with two options available, they can either win Cashpots or the Free Spins round, or a fixed cash prize can be won in place of these.
Joker Max: Hit ‘n’ Roll Xmas Edition delivers Christmas cheer along with engaging gameplay for fans old and new and is the perfect way to round off another year of high-quality content for the studio.
Alex Cohen, COO and Co-Founder at Kalamba Games, said: “Joker Max is always a fantastic title to work with and it lends itself perfectly to a Christmas update.
“The additions to play are the ideal festive present to our fans and we’ve no doubt that they’ll welcome Joker Max: Hit ‘n’ Roll Xmas Edition just as much as they have with all the other entries in our classic series.”

Bettormetrics publishes World Cup trading benchmark; Tipico leads uptime ranking
Study of 1,752 Big 5 league matches finds a 12-point uptime gap; live World Cup leaderboard to run during the tournament.
Bettormetrics has launched what it calls the first World Cup Trading Performance Benchmark, ranking sportsbooks on in-play market uptime ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The sports odds intelligence firm said it will publish a live World Cup leaderboard on its website during the tournament to track trading performance.
The benchmark measures operator uptime on the Total Goals market across 1,752 fixtures in the Premier League, Bundesliga, La Liga, Serie A and Ligue 1. Bettormetrics analysed 22 operators and published a Top 10, reporting a gap of more than 12 percentage points between the highest and lowest performers.
Tipico ranked first overall with 95.9% uptime, followed by Fanatics (95.3%) and Betsson (94.9%). Superbet (94.8%) and Betano (94.7%) rounded out the top five. Bettormetrics said Premier League fixtures generally delivered the highest availability across operators, while La Liga was “the key differentiator” and “consistently produced the lowest availability figures across the field.”
The results also highlighted regional shifts. Bettormetrics noted that none of bet365, William Hill, Ladbrokes or Paddy Power made the Top 10, while Fanatics placed second overall as the highest-ranked US operator. It also flagged Pinnacle and SBOBET as ranking poorly on in-play availability in this analysis despite “strong reputations for pregame pricing and market depth.”
Sabin Brooks, CEO of Bettormetrics, said: “The World Cup represents one of the highest-risk and highest-opportunity periods in the sportsbook calendar. Small differences in uptime, trading performance and market availability can have a material impact on turnover, profitability and even reputation.
“The World Cup leaderboard will answer one simple question: which sportsbook performed best when it matters most?”
