Pioneering software provider’s latest Premium release sees players set out on a volcanic voyage where Free Spins and blazing Bloxx wins combine to seriously turn up the heat

Having already braved the frozen tundra of Bloxx Arctic in February, this month popular software providers, Swintt, are inviting players to join them in altogether warmer climes as they seek out fiery Free Spins and white-hot wins in the scorching new Premium release, Bloxx Flare.

A 5×3 video slot that features 30 fixed paylines, Bloxx Flare again uses the innovative dual-reel format that has become such a hallmark of the series. On the left-hand side, players will find a selection of staple symbols including playing card values, fireballs and a phoenix rising from the ashes, while on the right-hand reels they’ll see a range of coloured Bloxx icons displaying various bonus prize amounts.

In order to get their hands on any of these instant-win Bloxx bonuses, players will simply need to land dollar symbols on three or more adjacent reels starting from left-to-right. Should they manage this, all dollar signs on the left reels will release the prizes from the corresponding Bloxx spaces on the right-hand grid, with these values then being totalled up and awarded on top of any regular payouts.

In addition to this returning base game feature, Bloxx Flare also gives players the chance to trigger a Free Spins bonus round whenever they land three or more scatter symbols anywhere on the left-hand reels. When they activate the bonus they’ll initially receive 10 free games, with extra dollar symbols being added to the reels and the game’s wild symbol now also substituting for the dollar signs as well.

Naturally, this makes it far easier for players to trigger big Bloxx wins during the main feature, but as an added incentive for them making it there, any subsequent scatter symbols they land will also add a further Free Spin to their total. This way, players can prolong the duration of the bonus round indefinitely and improve their chances of winning the slot’s top award of 15 simultaneous Bloxx prizes.

With Bloxx Flare being another entry in Swintt’s Premium game line-up, players will be pleased to discover that the popular Risk feature also makes a welcome return. Available after any winning base game spin, this optional extra transports players to a new screen where they’ll be prompted to guess the colour or suit of a face-down playing card to double or quadruple their current prize respectively. Up to 10 rounds of Risk can be played, with a new round being available until players make an incorrect pick and return to the base game or build their prize all the way to the slot’s maximum 3,500x jackpot.

David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “Bloxx Flare is the fourth title in our popular series of dual-reel slots and again gives players the chance to blaze their way to bumper bonus prizes.
“A sizzling addition to our Premium line-up, Bloxx Flare combines simple, intuitive gameplay with our rewarding Bloxx payout system to ensure big wins are never far away. Top it all off with a fiery Free Spins feature and the slot has everything that’s required to be another scorching success for Swintt.”

Midnite has agreed a partnership with Middlesbrough FC that will see the UK bookmaker become the club’s principal partner and front-of-shirt sponsor for the 2026/27 campaign, which Middlesbrough describes as its landmark 150th season.

The companies announced the deal alongside a fan activation at Riverside Stadium on Thursday, July 9, branded “This Season’s On Us”. The initiative offered supporters prizes including 2026/27 season tickets, 2026/27 shirts, match tickets, or a £25 club shop voucher, with fans required to answer Middlesbrough trivia and complete a football challenge.

Middlesbrough former players Craig Hignett and David Wheater attended the event, and, according to the company, took bonus attempts on behalf of participants who missed out.

Andrew Mook, Midnite’s Head of Brand Marketing, said:

“Middlesbrough have a storied history and we’re delighted to announce this partnership during such a monumental year with the club celebrating their 150th anniversary.

“It was great to see so many Middlesbrough fans at the “This Season’s On Us” activation, we hope they enjoyed taking part and meeting club legends, with David Wheater hitting top bins on several occasions and allowing fans to win big with season tickets.

“We can’t wait to get to Riverside Stadium in August to kick-off a new season and we’re excited to say that we have plenty of new and captivating campaigns planned.”

Lee Fryett, Middlesbrough FC Chief Commercial Officer, added:

“We’re delighted to welcome Midnite as our new Principal Partner.

“We’re looking forward to working closely with Midnite to develop engaging campaigns, content and unique experiences that bring our fans even closer to the club.

“We’re confident this partnership will provide real value for our supporters while supporting our ambitions both on and off the pitch.”

ThrillTech has been awarded a Gaming-Related Supplier licence by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), clearing the company to launch in Ontario’s regulated market.

The licence allows ThrillTech to deploy its opt-in side bet jackpots technology with regulated online casino, sports betting and lottery operators across the province.

Benjamin Bradtke, Co-Founder of ThrillTech, said: “Securing our AGCO licence is a major step in our mission to transform how jackpots are delivered at scale across regulated markets. This latest certification is testament to our robust technology and trusted compliance frameworks, allowing us to continue our global growth trajectory. We are thrilled to bring our proven, compliant jackpot technology to Ontario, empowering locally licensed operators to uplift revenue without cannibalising existing spend.”

The company said its “ThrillPots” mechanics sit as an independent, player-funded side bet and do not alter the underlying game’s return-to-player mathematics.

ThrillTech said the Ontario approval enables its existing multinational partners that also operate in the province to launch its side bet jackpots locally, while it also holds talks with potential new operator partners. The company lists its regulated footprint as including the United Kingdom, Sweden, the Netherlands, Romania, Malta, Gibraltar, Brazil and Peru.

ThrillTech said it has been awarded a Gaming-Related Supplier licence by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), clearing the company to offer its side-bet jackpot technology to regulated online casino, sports betting, and lottery operators in Ontario.

Benjamin Bradtke, Co-Founder of ThrillTech, said: “Securing our AGCO licence is a major step in our mission to transform how jackpots are delivered at scale across regulated markets.

We are thrilled to bring our proven, compliant jackpot technology to Ontario, empowering locally licensed operators to uplift revenue without cannibalising existing spend.”

The company said its ThrillPots product lets operators add player-funded, opt-in side-bet jackpots on top of existing games, without changing gameplay or the underlying return-to-player (RTP) calculations. ThrillTech positions the mechanic as a way to drive incremental engagement and revenue.

ThrillTech said the Ontario licence enables existing multinational partners that also operate in the province to roll out ThrillTech-powered jackpots locally, and added it is in discussions with potential new operator partners. The company listed other regulated jurisdictions it serves as the United Kingdom, Sweden, the Netherlands, Romania, Malta, Gibraltar, Brazil, and Peru.
