El Habanero by R. Franco arrives, the new 2023 Hit from MGA Games
The strategic alliance between MGA Games and R. Franco continues with the launch of El Habanero, the Mexican-themed 3-reel wrestling slot game. This is the seventh Recreativos Franco’s land-based games to be included in the MGA Games online catalogue, and from May 29th, it will be available to all online casino operators in the Spanish market.
El Habanero is an emblematic product whose land-based machine game is still on the market found in restaurants. Now MGA Games has brought the game online, maintaining all the virtues that make it such a classic: fun, music, and prizes.
This new release forms part of the “Hits 2023 by MGA Games”, a timeless collection of slot games that, like hits, are popular, successful, and endure over time.
This sport and adventurous game is technologically perfect and comes with ultra-fast loading, themed symbols, and improved math. A slot game programmed with HTML5 technology with a Triple View and responsive design makes it compatible with all digital formats, especially for mobile devices, players preferred gaming platforms.
In addition, a great new feature with respect to the original game, El Habanero, includes 8 original mini-games where players can train hard, fight against opponents and enjoy Mexican culture and gastronomy, among many other things.
Finally, El Habanero includes a lower game, and an upper game with themed symbols, accessed by accumulating bonuses and credits. Wrestlers’ masks, the ropes of the wrestling ring, and a Mexican backdrop set the scene together with characteristic sounds which perfectly imitate those of R. Franco’s land-based machine.

GGBET UA kicks off the “Keep it GG” promotional campaign
A leading gaming brand in Ukraine has launched a collection of ads featuring the tagline “Keep it GG” as part of an extensive communications initiative. The videos are currently being broadcast on Ukrainian TV, online platforms, and the brand’s social media accounts.
“GG” (Good Game) started in video game culture, yet its significance has far surpassed the literal meaning of “well played.” Currently, it symbolizes a worldwide sign of honor and gratitude for the feelings exchanged following a match, no matter the outcome. This concept served as the basis for GGBET UA’s latest marketing campaign. The video series embodies a unique GG atmosphere: rather than using a conventional voiceover, it incorporates complete audio tracks; the narrative features both literal and metaphorical allusions to sports and esports terms, alongside in-game and casino aspects; and prominent Ukrainian footballers are among the main characters.
“Every game, every match, every tournament is a moment that brings people together. For us, it’s important that every interaction with GGBET gives users that good game feeling — an experience that outlives the result and leaves vivid emotions behind, just like after watching a match,” comments CEO of GGBET UA, Serhii Mishchenko.
Going beyond the traditional view of GG also signifies a more profound implication — the brand’s strategic focus. The international brand, which has concentrated on esports for several years and attained significant success in esports betting and collaborations, is now adopting best practices to enhance traditional sports in regional markets. GGBET UA showcases a wider strategy for Good Game via collaborations (FC Dynamo Kyiv, FC Polissya, and the Ukrainian Basketball Federation), by organizing its own events and special projects, including initiatives that blend sports with esports, like the Match of LeGGends: Derby showmatch on the server featuring esports athletes and football players.
The brand’s creative team collaborated with a Ukrainian advertising agency and a Ukrainian production company to develop the commercials. GGBET UA made this choice to assist the local creative sector amid the war.
