Yggdrasil and 4ThePlayer are set to spin down the River Nile in their latest release, 4 Fantastic Fish in Egypt.

The game is a sequel to the top performing 4 Fantastic Fish, with the provider marrying two player favourite themes–Egypt and Fishing. Boasting 4,096 ways to win and 4ThePlayer’s Money Ways™ mechanic where Fish can land on any reel, awarding cash prizes from 0.1x right up to 50x.

4 Fantastic Fish in Egypt introduces the Sarcophagus scatter to the Money Ways mechanic, collecting all cash prizes on Fish in view in the base game. Players who land a Sarcophagus scatter in the Respin bonus may trigger either a Shark or Squid feature, to collect or increase all existing cash prizes for massive wins!

Big Game Fish (Big, Super, Mega and Ultra) can award prizes from 100x up to 10,000x.

Three or more bonus scatters will trigger the Respins bonus, with every new Fish that lands on the reels resetting the count to three. At the end of the round, all visible fish icons will have their cash prizes collected for huge win potential.

In addition, players can trigger a Shark, which eats an entire reel of fish to combine the prizes and multiply it by 2x, or a Giant Squid, which will rearrange fish to create a bigger win!

In certain jurisdictions, players can progress straight to the bonus through one of two Buy Feature options.

The game also boasts Portrait Mode®, allowing players to play in portrait mobile orientation and still have an immersive entertainment experience.

The title is powered by GATI, Yggdrasil’s state-of-the-art technology enabling partners to employ the preconfigured, regulation-ready, standardised development toolkit to consistently produce cutting-edge content followed by rapid distribution.

Stuart McCarthy, Head of Product & Programs at Yggdrasil, said: “4 Fantastic Fish quickly established itself as a fan-favourite this time last year, and we’re delighted to further expand our aquatic offering with a brand-new watery adventure! The new Egyptian title offers more action-packed gameplay, and we’re thrilled to work with 4ThePlayer yet again for another strong product launch.”

Henry McLean, Co-Founder – Commercial & Marketing Director at 4ThePlayer, said: “4 Fantastic Fish in Egypt combines two incredibly popular themes in a fun and fantastic way and the introduction of the Sarcophagus scatter ramps up the excitement! With the YG Masters program, we consistently deliver market-leading content and are not in de-Nile this game will make a splash!”

Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, will moderate a panel at The Blockchain show on 29^th June, bringing together experts from entertainment, location-based gaming, and content localisation to examine what it takes to build sustainable gaming ecosystems across emerging markets.

The panel, titled “Global Gaming Expansion: Lessons from Untapped Markets,” will structure its discussion across four themes: the growth dynamics reshaping emerging gaming markets; the role of localisation in creating experiences that genuinely connect with new audiences; the infrastructure and communities needed to build gaming ecosystems beyond the game itself; and the lessons and opportunities that will define successful expansion in the years ahead.

Alona Shevtsova plans to frame the discussion around the central challenge for companies looking to expand globally: entering a new market requires far more than bringing an existing product to a new audience. Understanding local cultures, building communities, adapting experiences, and creating ecosystems that allow gaming to grow sustainably are all as important as the product itself.

Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, said:

“The future growth of gaming will come not only from new technologies, but from understanding people — their cultures, communities, and the experiences they want to be part of. Successful expansion will belong to those who can combine global ambition with local understanding.”

The first segment will examine why regions including the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia are becoming increasingly significant for developers, operators, and investors — driven by young audiences, accelerating digital adoption, and new entertainment models creating substantial growth potential. Panellists will explore how consumer preferences differ across markets and what trends among younger audiences are shaping the future of gaming and entertainment.

The third segment will broaden the lens beyond the game itself, exploring the role of location-based entertainment, gaming centres, esports, and experiential destinations in attracting new audiences and building long-term communities. Panellists plan to address how entertainment ecosystems — spanning physical venues, events, and community infrastructure — accelerate gaming adoption in markets where the category is still establishing itself.

Earlier this month, Alona Shevtsova was shortlisted for the 2026 Great British Entrepreneur Awards in the Established Business of the Year category. Her team is also preparing for the Fintech Connect conference in London later this year. Sends will be a leading sponsor of this event.
