Gaming Realms matches monsters in Slingo’s Cosmic Clusters
Gaming Realms, a leading provider of mobile-focused gaming content, ventures through space in its latest amalgamation of slot and Slingo gameplay, Slingo’s Cosmic Clusters.
Played across two gameboards, the top matrix comprises of 25 randomly generated numbers whereas the lower gameboard is set across a 5×4 grid and features thematic alien monster symbols and numbers.
If these symbols create an adjacent matching cluster of four or more monsters, a win is granted and winning icons are removed from play. This causes a cascade of new symbols to fall from the top of the grid and can go on to award another cluster.
A number on this reel set must correspond to a number on the top gameboard to mark its position. Creating a line of these marked numbers awards a Slingo, with each one increasing the number of free spins unlocked.
In the free spins round, both gameboards converge to create a 9×5 grid. Only monster symbols are present in the bonus, allowing players to create clusters of winning symbols more easily and in turn, boosts the title’s winning potential.
Slingo’s Cosmic Clusters is the latest title by Gaming Realms to blend mechanics popularised by the slot genre with its innovative Slingo concept to deliver fresh transformative gameplay, evidenced in other hit titles such as Slingo Piggy Bank, Slingo Money Train and Slingo Lucky Joker.
Gareth Scott, Chief Commercial Officer at Gaming Realms, said: “Slingo’s Cosmic Clusters exemplifies our commitment to innovation. The title combines elements of popular cluster mechanics to award wins in the base game and builds upon this feature to deliver high-intensity action in the free spins round.
“We have transformed how players are awarded Slingos within this release, which will provide familiar gameplay elements whilst offering fresh inventive features to deliver out-of-this-world fun!”
Alternative Payment Methods
Paysafe expands Tebex checkout integration to add cards and more APMs
Tebex connects to the Paysafe API, extending beyond PaysafeCard to card processing and alternative payment methods including Openbucks in the US.
Paysafe (NYSE: PSFE) has expanded its partnership with video game monetization platform Tebex, adding card payments and additional alternative payment methods (APMs) through a single integration to the Paysafe API. The update was announced July 7, 2026 in London.
Tebex has integrated the Paysafe Gateway to support credit and debit card processing alongside APMs. Tebex said its checkout has offered Paysafe’s prepaid eCash product PaysafeCard since 2016, and the new API integration connects Tebex to a broader set of Paysafe payment products.
The integration also links Tebex to Paysafe’s branded APMs. Tebex Checkout is already live with Openbucks, which enables US gamers to pay online with cash using third-party gift cards purchased in-store at “67K+ locations,” or via Openbucks’ Obucks digital card sold through authorized online resellers.
Zak Cutler, President of Global Gaming at Paysafe, said: “We’re delighted to broaden our partnership with Tebex. In a highly competitive market, video game creatives need to satisfy gamers’ increasingly diverse transactional expectations. By connecting the Tebex Checkout to an exhaustive range of payment options, including recognizable brands like our Openbucks solution, the Paysafe Gateway will give Tebex and its customers an edge when it comes to streamlining, simplifying and ultimately optimizing the monetization of gaming.”
Liam Wiltshire, Vice President and GM of Tebex, commented: “At Tebex, we know payments are more than a transaction. They’re a critical part of how studios build relationships with their players and grow their games. Acting as an extension of the studio, our role is to remove the complexity of global payments, compliance, and support so teams can focus on creating amazing experiences. Expanding our partnership with Paysafe allows Tebex to offer greater choice and flexibility at checkout, helping our partners reach more players, reduce friction, and unlock new opportunities for growth.”

With Openbucks and future Paysafe-powered solutions, Tebex continues to expand its network of local and alternative payment methods, enabling studios to reach players in more markets with payment options that reflect regional preferences and improve conversion rates with a seamless player experience.

F*Bastards says it now distributes content via 400+ operators worldwide
F*Bastards says its casino content is now available through more than 400 operators worldwide, marking a distribution milestone for the iGaming supplier as it continues to expand its portfolio and partner network.
In a company statement outlining its background, Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas said the team’s earlier attempt to build a game studio fell short due to positioning rather than production capability. “Looking back, we realised we weren’t missing talent. We were missing identity. We could build games, but we hadn’t built something people could remember. That lesson became the starting point for everything F*Bastards would later become.” says Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas.
The company said it intentionally built its brand around differentiation, including the decision to use the name F*Bastards despite the expectation it would split opinion among potential partners. The founders described early progress as incremental, driven by game releases, industry events, operator feedback and relationship-building, rather than a single breakout moment.
F*Bastards also pointed to a fundraising milestone in 2026, saying it secured its first seven-figure investment. The company positioned the round as validation of execution rather than an early-stage concept.
“From day one, the goal wasn’t to become the biggest supplier. It was to build something people would remember. We’ve come a long way, but in many ways, it still feels like we’re only getting started” says Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas.
