Apparat Gaming unleash a howling Hold & Spin adventure in 5 Moon Wolf
This month, Apparat Gaming – the software developer famed for delivering quality iGaming titles with a German accent – is inviting players to embrace the call of the wild and join the pack for a howlingly good time in the brand-new release, 5 Moon Wolf Hold & Spin.
Offering medium volatility and max wins of 2,500x, 5 Moon Wolf Hold & Spin is a five-reel slot with 20 fixed paylines. Set in the imposing canyons of the American west, the game boasts a range of majestic predators on its reels, with eagles, bears, mountain lions and wolves all appearing as high-value icons.
The real “bite” of the game, however, comes in the form of its two distinct bonus features, which can be activated by hunting down three scatters or five full moons respectively. The first is a free spins round, while the second is Apparat’s popular Hold & Spin game, which is linked to four local jackpots.
Dealing with the two features in order, once three scatters have been hit, night will fall on the reels as at least eight free games are awarded. During these free spins, not only will all low value symbols be removed from the reels, but players can also extend the feature by landing further scatters or trigger an even more lucrative version of the Hold & Spin bonus in which the prizes for full moons are doubled.
The Hold & Spin feature, which is triggered by five or more full moons, begins with a pack of wolves chasing across the screen while a series of free respins are played as long as at least one new moon appears within the next three respins. This allows players to collect moons to win instant cash prizes as well as the Mini, Minor and Major local jackpots, with an additional Grand Bonus being awarded should they successfully fill all 15 reel spaces before the respins come to an end.
Of course, for players who are champing at the bit to enter the Hold & Spin bonus without triggering it manually, an optional Buy Feature is also available. With this granting them immediate access to the bonus for an additional stake, they can therefore bypass the luck factor and dive directly into the feature, where they’ll be able to sink their teeth into lunar-powered wins without needing to wait.
Martin Frindt, Co-Founder & Chief Product Officer at Apparat Gaming, said: “With Apparat’s signature Hold & Win feature already proving a howling success with players, we thought it was high time we gave the popular bonus another run out in our action-packed slot adventure, 5 Moon Wolf.
“Linked to four lucrative local jackpots, this exciting extra gives our new lupine-themed game plenty of bite – and when coupled with a free spins feature that uses only the slot’s higher-value symbols, we’re sure players are going to love taking a walk on the wild side now that 5 Moon Wolf Hold & Win is out.”

S8UL streamer Payal Dhare and OWND! launch gamer-curated fashion capsule
S8UL gaming creator and streamer Payal Dhare has partnered with OWND!, the Gen Z-focused fashion brand from Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail Limited, to launch a gaming-inspired fashion capsule called ‘Gamer Drop’. The companies describe it as India’s first female gamer-curated capsule. The collection will be available on OWND!’s website and in the brand’s stores across India.
According to the press release, ‘Gamer Drop’ includes menswear and womenswear pieces built around gaming culture and streetwear, positioned as a creator-led collection rather than conventional creator merchandise. The campaign leans on the growing overlap between gaming culture, creator communities, and youth fashion.
Marco Agnolin, Chief Executive Officer, OWND!. said, “We see gaming today as a powerful cultural force that is shaping how young consumers express themselves, communicate, and engage with fashion. As one of India’s biggest gamers, Payal Dhare represents this new generation perfectly through her authenticity, confidence, and deep connection with the gaming community. Her influence extends far beyond gaming content, making her an ideal face for our gaming collection. Through this collaboration, we aim to celebrate individuality and connect with India’s digitally native youth in a way that feels relevant, inclusive, and culture-driven.”
Payal Dhare aka Payal Gaming said, “Gaming today has become a culture and a form of self-expression for millions of young people across the country. That’s what makes this collaboration with OWND! so exciting for me. With this curation, I wanted to create something that genuinely reflects my vibe and the energy of my community. It’s stylish, comfortable, expressive – and made for people who want to own who they are.”
The release also points to India’s expanding creator economy. Citing a Boston Consulting Group report, it says India has nearly 2 to 2.5 million creators, with more than 60% of consumers exposed to creator-led content and over 30% of shoppers influenced by creators in purchase decisions.

BETBY Announces Strategic Partnership with Vibra Gaming
BETBY, the leading B2B sportsbook supplier, has announced a new strategic partnership with Vibra Gaming. The agreement will see BETBY deliver its full sportsbook solution to Vibra Gaming, further accelerating its expansion across the LatAm region.
Through this collaboration, Vibra Gaming will integrate BETBY’s complete sportsbook offering covering more than 500,000 monthly events, including its advanced AI-powered tools, AI Labs, and proprietary esports feed, Betby.Games. Delivered via a single, seamless API integration, the solution enables Vibra Gaming to incorporate a fully scalable sportsbook directly into its platform, allowing its operator partners to roll out sports betting efficiently while reducing technical complexity and accelerating time-to-market.
The integration addresses key challenges associated with launching a sportsbook, particularly the technical demands and resource requirements involved. By leveraging BETBY’s solution, Vibra Gaming can extend its platform capabilities without adding significant development overhead, while enabling its partners to introduce sports betting as part of a broader, multi-vertical offering.
A key component of the agreement is the inclusion of Betby.Games, BETBY’s award-winning esports feed, which aligns closely with Vibra Gaming’s localized approach. The portfolio features hyper-localized, industry-first titles such as eVaquejada and eFootVolley, designed specifically to resonate with Latin American audiences, further strengthening engagement across the region.
The partnership comes as BETBY continues to reinforce its position in Latin America, a strategic market where the provider has been actively investing and expanding its footprint. With operational licenses in Brazil and Peru, and a growing network of regional partners, this collaboration marks an important step in BETBY’s long-term growth strategy across LatAm.
Stefanos Karakidis, Business Development Director at BETBY, said: “This partnership is a natural fit for both sides. Vibra Gaming has built a platform that reflects the expectations of Latin American operators, and that creates the ideal environment for our sportsbook to deliver value. Besides that, what makes this collaboration particularly strong is how seamlessly our solution integrates into Vibra’s ecosystem, enabling their casino operator partners to expand into sports betting in a fast, efficient, and scalable way.”
Werter Luna, CEO at Vibra Gaming, said: “At Vibra Gaming, our priority is to provide our partners with flexible, locally relevant solutions that help them grow. Integrating BETBY’s sportsbook allows us to expand our platform with a best-in-class sports betting offering that matches our standards in terms of performance and adaptability. We’re particularly excited about the potential of combining their technology and esports content with our localized approach to further enhance the player experience across Latin America.”
