LIGHTNING BOX™ PREPARES FOR AN EPIC BATTLE IN STELLAR CASH™ DRAGON PALACE
The popular original release has been augmented through the addition of the Stellar Cash bonus
Specialist slot provider Lightning Box, one of Light & Wonder’s in-house studios, has released Stellar Cash™ Dragon Palace, a slot which blends the mechanics of the existing player favourite title Dragon Palace with the popular Stellar Cash™ jackpot feature.
In this 5×3 reel slot, Asian-inspired symbols depicting koi fish, turtles and lotus flowers must form matching combinations across 25 paylines to award a win. A dragon wild is also present, substituting all other symbols except the scatters.
Landing three or more scatters in the base game awards up to 20 Free Spins. Here, the Master Dragon breathes fire across the reels and a dragon multiplier will be revealed. This multiplier can climb as high as 15x, boosting the slot’s winning potential.
The Stellar Cash™ bonus feature is unlocked by landing three spaceships attached to any normal symbol in-game. Players are taken to space to battle against enemy ships, choosing which to target and winning instant cash prizes for correct choices. Progressing through to the final level will reveal either a Mini, Minor, Major or Grand Jackpot prize.
Stellar Cash™ Dragon Palace will first launch exclusively with BetMGM in New Jersey and will be available to customers of Light & Wonder’s industry-leading OpenGaming™ platform, alongside popular new titles such as Lightning Eclipse™ and Money Link Great Immortals.
Michael Maokhamphiou, Operations Manager at Lightning Box said: “Bringing the Stellar Cash™ bonus to an already top-performing slot like Dragon Palace has created an exciting new title that we are confident will quickly become a fan favourite.
“Players can enjoy an array of mechanics such as the fiery bonus round, home to dragon multipliers, and take off to space in pursuit of jackpots. This slot has plenty of big win potential and we can’t wait to see the reception to it.”
Rob Procter, VP Game Development at Light & Wonder said: “Bringing a player favourite mechanic to a popular game has produced a truly thrilling slot, which will appeal to both new and existing fans of the Dragon Palace title.
“The chance to land multipliers of up to 15x in the Free Spins bonus round compliments the big win potential available in the Stellar Cash feature, which has increased the excitement the title has now become synonymous with.

First release is Avinho R10, followed by June launch Fortune Ronaldinho as the studio lines up more titles ahead of the World Cup season.
Pascal Gaming has partnered with Brazilian football player Ronaldinho to launch a dedicated portfolio of games inspired by the athlete, the company said on 26 May, 2026.
The planned pipeline includes crash games, slots and additional titles set to roll out through the year. Pascal Gaming said the initiative is aimed at both Brazil and international markets, and will be supported by tournaments, promotional activity and special events tied to the Ronaldinho-branded portfolio.
The first game confirmed is Avinho R10, described as a crash-style title featuring Ronaldinho “above Brazil” in an aviation-themed experience. A second game, Fortune Ronaldinho, is scheduled for release in June and is positioned as a slot-inspired title.
“Ronaldinho is one of the most recognisable and loved football personalities in the world, so for us this collaboration is much more than a game launch. It is a global entertainment project that combines football culture, emotionally engaging gameplay and strong promotional activities ahead of the World Cup,” said Armen Mnaskanian, Head of Sales at SoftConstruct Gaming Content.
Pascal Gaming said it has been expanding its crash game portfolio during 2026 and investing in localised, character-driven content across Latin America, Africa and Asia. The company added that more Ronaldinho-themed titles and marketing campaigns will be revealed in the coming months.

The JUSTIN2026 campaign was shot in Denver and rolls out over four weeks ahead of the 14 June event at the White House.
Duelbits has launched a branded content campaign with UFC interim Lightweight Champion Justin Gaethje, timed to UFC Freedom 250 at the White House on Saturday 14th June.
The campaign, branded JUSTIN2026, was shot on location in Denver, Colorado by UK-based creative agency YRDS. Duelbits said the content is designed as a “premium, cinematic series” and will roll out in phases over the next four weeks, peaking on event day.
According to the company, the campaign was planned before UFC Freedom was officially confirmed. Duelbits framed the early commitment as part of a strategy to move faster than traditional sportsbooks around major cultural moments.
“We didn’t want to create another sportsbook promo,” said Jasper Hoekert, Chief Marketing Officer at Duelbits. “We wanted to create something that combat sports fans want to watch, content built around Justin’s authenticity and intensity, not just his fight record. We were planning this before the White House event was even officially confirmed. When you believe in the magnitude of a moment, you don’t wait for permission to act on it.”
“Duelbits came to me with a vision, not just a brief,” said Gaethje. “They wanted to create something that reflected the reality of what I do and who I am, with no smoke and mirrors. When a brand shows up with that kind of conviction and creative ambition, you back it. This campaign is going to be something people remember.”
