Week 15/2023 slot games releases
Here are this weeks latest slots releases compiled by European Gaming
After releasing the macabre delight that was ‘Blood & Shadow’ – Nolimit City is gearing up to introduce yet another blockbuster of a slot into the world. While the provider is no stranger to unconventional themes, their newest release takes things a little further as NLC set out to hit the country roads right alongside the unsuspecting, chainsaw-wielding psycho known as “Chainsaw Larry” in their latest release, Kiss My Chainsaw.
Yggdrasil, has blasted off into outer space with its latest launch Giganimals GigaBlox™. The 6-reel, 40 payline title features the hugely popular GigaBlox™ Game Engagement Mechanic (GEM), which sees supersized symbols land on the reels, potentially reaching up to 6×6 in size. The action-packed game sees two types of Free Spins modes, and a Wild Surge can occur on any spin, turning one of the four low-paying icons into wilds for huge wins.
Relax Gaming, the iGaming aggregator and supplier of unique content, has released Money Cart 3 in the UK, with players able to leave the base game grind behind and keep their eye on the 10,000x big win. With an RTP of 96%, the latest release in the Money Train series of slots is bonus round focused and targeted towards markets with Buy Feature restrictions.
Things are getting real fruity at Swintt following the launch of its latest classic slot, Win-O-Rama. This is a game that will appeal to fans of traditional slot machines, and those that love to watch as the fruit symbols – as well as BARs, Bells and Lucky 7s – drop onto the reels and the potentially big wins line up. Win-O-Rama is set across five reels and three rows with the choice of two different payout mechanics. Players can either opt for the full 20 pay lines or reduce the number to five but with a much higher volatility and max bet multiplier of 1,222x their bet.
This new game from Red Rake Gaming transports us to Ancient Egypt, where players are challenged to find the great pharaoh Ramses’ guarded treasure. A video slot with the “1 million ways to win” feature, an exciting minigame and a free spins feature, all guaranteeing hours of fun for all players. This game takes you to the doors of Ramses’ pyramid, where you’ll find a wall that is raised bit by bit to discover more rows with each win. If a pyramid appears in a row, it will be added to the progress bar, which will trigger a minigame when filled.
Playson, has added to its captivating Hold and Win series with its first Egyptian night themed release Giza Nights: Hold and Win. This feature-rich 5×3, 25-line slot invites players on a mysterious journey to one of the Seven Wonders of the World – as they embark on a voyage around the ancient town of Giza in search of treasure. Offering enchanting gameplay and immersive design, Giza Nights: Hold and Win is an unmissable adventure for gamers.
Wazdan, has released the latest slot in its hit series, Hot Slot™: 777 Cash Out. The release is the eighth slot in the top-performing Hot Slot™ series, which has delivered strong results across all operator performance indicators. As with its predecessors, Hot Slot™: 777 Cash Out fuses a classic retro theme, reminiscent of an old-school slot machine, with Wazdan’s modern and innovative mechanics.
Gamzix, has released a new mysterious slot called Wolf Story. Wildlife is about danger, but greatness, so everyone just wants to take a look at this amazing picture. Gamzix’s new slot opens this opportunity for players and suggests being involved in the new powerful story, where wild characters let players take some benefits from its land. Wolf Story is a 5-reel, 3-row slot with 25 fixed paylines.
BGaming is inviting players on an intergalactic voyage – where the spaceship’s crew are a gang of adventurous Alien Fruits. Played across six reels, the space-themed slot follows an avocado, plum, pomegranate, lemon and passionfruit as they embark on a trip across the solar system. With enticing gameplay including innovative AI-generated graphics, refilling reels and opportunities to win up to x15000, players accompany the fruit characters as they seek out jelly letters for energy.
Play’n GO add Ronin’s Honour, the all-new samurai-action title to their collection of premium slots. In this adventure, follow The Ronin: a wise swordswoman trained in both ninja and samurai arts, as he clashes blades with Hannya, the fearsome ninja. Pulling inspiration from classic samurai movies, fans of Play’n GO might draw parallels between Ronin’s Honour and the supernatural Tale of Kyubiko (2022). Land three matching symbols to secure a win.
Pragmatic Play, is embarking on a star-studded adventure with its latest slot, Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways. Players can hop on board an iconic double-decker London bus and enjoy up to 117,649 ways to win across six ever-changing reel sizes. Symbols include an array of celebrity passengers, who can form winning combinations to award a win. Any winning symbols are removed from play, triggering a cascade of new symbols. This tumble feature continues for up to 20 consecutive spins or until no more wins are created.

Belatra Games
From ‘Mummyverse’ to Crash Games: Belatra Reviews a Landmark 2025
Editor’s Take
Why this matters: Belatra has been a steady hand in the slots world for a long time, but 2025 marked a distinct shift in strategy. By entering the Crash vertical with Goose Boom Bang and winning big at SiGMA Africa, the studio is clearly pivoting to capture the high-growth, high-frequency players in emerging markets. They are no longer just a “classic slots” developer; they are diversifying the portfolio to ensure relevance in regions like LatAm and Africa.
The Full Story
Belatra Games, the specialist online slots developer, has issued a strategic review of its 2025 operations, celebrating a 12-month period defined by entry into new game verticals, significant franchise expansion, and high-profile industry recognition.
The year was characterized by a dual strategy: deepening engagement in established markets while aggressively expanding its content portfolio to suit local preferences in emerging territories.
Portfolio Evolution: Crash and Battles 2025 saw Belatra move beyond its traditional slot roots. The company made its debut in the high-demand Crash game vertical with the launch of Goose Boom Bang, a title designed to tap into the fast-paced gameplay preference of younger demographics.
Additionally, the studio introduced a fresh game concept with the launch of Battles, a new format unveiled for the first time in 2025, with further development planned for 2026.
The ‘Mummyverse’ Expands For fans of classic slots, the highlight of the year was the aggressive expansion of the Mummyverse. Belatra nearly doubled the size of this franchise over the year, making it the most extensive game universe in their entire catalog.
The developer also focused on B2B localization, releasing a number of exclusive bespoke games created specifically for selected operator partners to meet specific local market tastes.
Awards and Recognition The company’s strategic shifts were validated by industry accolades. Belatra secured over 30 nominations throughout the year, with standout wins including:
-
Best Slot Provider (awarded by BitStarz).
-
Most Played Game of 2025 for Make It Gold at the SiGMA Africa Awards.
-
Player’s Pick Award.
Management Commentary Misha Voinich, Head of Business Development at Belatra, commented on the studio’s momentum:
“This year has truly defined who we are as a studio – ambitious, creative and focused on building long-term partnerships. We’ve expanded our universes, launched new ones and entered exciting new markets that will all help us carry this momentum into the New Year.”

BMM Testlabs
‘Chaos and Soul’: Ebaka Games Plots Global Expansion After Viral Launch
Editor’s Take
Why this matters: The “Instant Game” vertical (Crash, Plinko, Mines) is becoming crowded, but Ebaka Games is cutting through the noise with a distinct brand personality. By securing BMM Testlabs certification so quickly after launch, they are signaling to Tier 1 operators that despite their “chaotic” marketing vibe, the math underneath is solid and compliant. The backing of industry veteran Dmitry Belianin also adds immediate commercial credibility to the startup.
The Full Story
Ebaka Games, the fledgling studio that promises to bring “chaos and soul” to the iGaming sector, has outlined an aggressive growth strategy for 2026 following a landmark launch period in late 2025.
The studio, which officially debuted in November, reports that its initial rollout reached more than five million people worldwide. The launch saw its portfolio go live with the operator Menace, serving as the initial testbed for its mechanics and “Ebaka modes.”
The Product: Instant Games with Personality Ebaka is bypassing traditional slots to focus on the high-growth vertical of fast-paced, instant-win games. Their initial lineup includes:
-
Plinko
-
Mines
-
Tower
-
Limbo
-
Crash
Differentiation is achieved through unique mascots and signature gameplay tweaks designed to offer high win potential and distinct visual identities, moving away from the generic interfaces often found in this genre.
Regulatory Milestone Crucially for its 2026 roadmap, Ebaka Games has confirmed it has secured certification from BMM Testlabs. This accreditation validates the fairness and integrity of its RNG (Random Number Generator) and game engines, removing a major barrier to entry for regulated markets. With this certification in hand, the studio plans to launch with a number of “major brands” in the coming year.
Management Commentary Vitalii Zalievskyi, CEO of Ebaka Games, commented on the studio’s unorthodox approach:
“It’s only been a few weeks since we first introduced Ebaka Games to the world. The feedback has been breathtaking, and it vindicates the decision for us to take a different path to the rest of the industry. You don’t need huge marketing budgets to grab people’s attention if you are building something truly innovative.”
Industry Backing The studio describes itself as being “created by players for players” but boasts significant industry firepower in its corner. The team includes Dmitry Belianin, a well-known figure in the sector who is the co-founder of Blask and Menace, as well as Managing Partner at Already Media.

ARC
Racing Meets Nightlife: SBK Backs ARC’s New ‘Friday Night Live’ Series
Editor’s Take
Why this matters: British racing has a well-documented demographic problem; its core audience is aging. “Friday Night Live” is a direct attempt to fix this by blending high-stakes racing with the “experience economy” (DJs, nightlife vibes) that appeals to Gen Z and Millennials. Bringing SBK on board—a mobile-first, app-only sportsbook—is a perfect demographic fit, while the Racing Post adds the necessary credibility to ensure the actual racing product remains the focus.
The Full Story
Arena Racing Company (ARC) has unveiled the strategic commercial lineup for its upcoming Friday Night Live series, confirming SBK as the Exclusive Betting Partner and The Racing Post as the Official Media Partner.
Set to launch in January 2026, Friday Night Live is a new initiative created in collaboration with youth-focused events company INVADES. The series is designed to overhaul the traditional race day experience, featuring fast-paced fixtures under floodlights, DJ sets, and significant entertainment elements sandwiched between races.
The Commercial Deal
-
SBK: As the exclusive betting partner, the Smarkets-owned sportsbook will take naming rights and on-course branding for all 35 races. Crucially, these races will be broadcast live on mainstream television via ITV Racing as well as Sky Sports Research.
-
The Racing Post: As the Official Media Partner, the publication will provide content, coverage, and promotion across its digital platforms, aiming to bridge the gap between established racing purists and the new audience ARC hopes to attract.
A High-Stakes Experiment The series is not just a marketing exercise; it carries serious sporting weight. Each of the five scheduled nights will feature over £200,000 in prize money. The fixtures will rotate across three of ARC’s all-weather tracks: Wolverhampton, Newcastle, and Southwell.
Management Commentary David Leyden Dunbar, Group Director of Commercial Strategy at ARC, was clear about the target audience:
“We have been very clear that one of the aims of Friday Night Live is to engage the next generation of racing fans… Both [partners] have shown real enthusiasm to work with us… as well as using the platform that these fixtures will offer them to also engage with more established racing and sports fans.”
Adam Baylis, Marketing Director at SBK, added:
“Friday Night Live [is] a fresh and engaging concept that brings a new energy to British racing. SBK has always been built around sport… our focus is on enhancing the live race day experience in a fun, social and responsible way.”
The 2026 Schedule The series kicks off immediately in the new year:
-
9th Jan: Wolverhampton
-
6th Feb: Newcastle
-
20th Feb: Southwell
-
20th March: Wolverhampton
