Wazdan continues rollout of Extremely Light franchise with revamped version of Hot Slot™: 777 Coins

Wazdan, the innovative games provider, is continuing to expand its Extremely Light collection with the release of Hot Slot™: 777 Coins Extremely Light.
As an eco-friendly version of one of the provider’s most popular games, Hot Slot™: 777 Coins Extremely Light retains the expansive range of features and mechanics as the original, presented in a more lightweight and energy-efficient package.
A host of fruit symbols fill the board across the 5×3 reels, which boasts 20 paylines and a maximum win of 635x the base bet.
Hot Slot™: 777 Coins Extremely Light offers the Cash Out function, which seeks to amplify player engagement. Cash symbols award prizes of up to 15x the player’s bet, with the Cash Out symbol accumulating all values from the reels and paying out the total win.
The 9 Coins Jackpot feature makes its return, giving players the chance to land a Mini, Minor, Major or Grand Jackpot when they land at least six coins on any spin.
The slot also includes the Chance Level™ feature, multiplying the base bet by up 6x to provide extra opportunities to land a Jackpot prize.
Wazdan’s Extremely Light collection seeks to make its most acclaimed and popular titles more accessible, with simplified animations and lower data consumption reducing loading times by 2.5x, whilst also opening its portfolio up to a significantly larger player base.
The release of Hot Slot™: 777 Coins Extremely Light follows Hot Slot™: 777 Cash Out, Burning Sun™ and 9 Coins™ as Wazdan’s first games to receive the Extremely Light treatment, with the provider working on simplified iterations of other top-performing titles to be released in the near future.
Andrzej Hyla, Chief Commercial Officer at Wazdan said: “We’re thrilled to be continuing the rollout of our Extremely Light franchise with the release of Hot Slot™: 777 Coins Extremely Light, another one of our top titles with fantastic features and exciting chances to win.
“More players than ever before can enjoy the Cash Out feature, alongside chances to win one of four incredible Jackpots on any spin – all presented in a lightweight and eco-friendly package. We can’t wait to bring even more Extremely Light releases to players in due course!”

Reading Time: < 1 minute
Regulating the Game (RTG) has announced Evive Australia as the first innovation to take the stage at Pitch! – part of the annual RTG gathering in Sydney in March.
The event will take place at the famous Sydney Opera House on 9 March 2026, as part of the sixth edition of the international regulatory and industry conference.
Evive is an app designed to help people change how they play or seek support for gambling harms. Created by Sam DeMello, a tech specialist drawing on his lived experience of gambling harm, and supported by Jay Robinson, a safer-gambling expert with over two decades of harm-minimisation and prevention experience, Evive Australia aims to deliver personalised tools, resources and pathways for anyone seeking to reduce risk or access help.
“Evive brings together real-world experience, clinical expertise and technology to create an accessible and credible platform for change. Pitch! was conceived to spotlight exactly these kinds of innovations – ideas that challenge convention, improve safeguards and reimagine the future of regulation and industry practice,” said Paul Newson, Principal at Vanguard Overwatch and founder of Regulating the Game.
“Evive isn’t just another app, it’s a bridge between lived experience, behavioral science and practical support. It shows that compliance and compassion can coexist, and when they do, everyone benefits. The app gives regulators and operators confidence in credible harm reduction tools, while giving people a safe, stigma free path to change,” Robinson said.
