Relax Gaming skates into action with the launch of Winter Champions

Relax Gaming, the leading iGaming aggregator and content provider, is taking players on an exhilarating snowy adventure with the launch of Winter Champions, a sports-themed slot that propels players through the mountain tops in pursuit of golden victories.
At the heart of Winter Champions is the innovative Sliding Respins mechanic, ensuring the reels remain active as long as winning combinations continue to land, adding a layer of non-stop excitement to the gameplay.
With a maximum win potential of 6,000x the player’s bet, this dynamic slot is designed to captivate both sports fans and slot enthusiasts alike.
The game’s standout features are its three thrilling bonus rounds—Ski Jumping, Ice Hockey, and Curling—triggered when three Wild symbols are on the reels at the same time.
In the Ski Jumping Bonus, each Rolling Respin brings players closer to the top prize, with Wilds boosting rewards by up to 5x. The Ice Hockey Bonus sees players collect pucks and score goals to multiply their values, while the Curling Bonus offers the challenge of stacking stones to unlock reel-filling multipliers.
Designed with stunning visuals and a festive atmosphere, Winter Champions is set to become a go-to for players looking for dynamic gameplay and the potential for big wins.
Shelley Hannah, CPO at Relax Gaming, said: “We are excited to introduce Winter Champions, a slot that truly captures the excitement and competitive spirit of winter sports. The Sliding Respins mechanic adds dynamic gameplay, while the three unique bonus games ensure there’s something for everyone.”
“We believe this game will deliver hours of fun and plenty of big-win potential for players that will continue beyond the winter season.”
Established as one of the industry’s leading B2B suppliers, Relax Gaming was awarded GGA’s Product Launch of the Year in February 2023 for Dream Drop Jackpots. Money Train 3 was named the 2023 CasinoBeats Game Developer Awards amongst its 6 Slot of the Year titles, while the brand also won the award for Skill Games Supplier at the 2023 EGR B2B Awards along with the Innovation in Mobile award at the 2023 SBC Awards.
Relax Gaming provides more than 4,000 online casino games, from its high-performing proprietary slots to a significant, varied library of content from hand-picked third-party studios via its partnership programmes.

Industry Awards
Stats Perform Named Live Streaming Supplier of the Year at EGR B2B Awards 2025

Stats Perform has been named Live Streaming Supplier of the Year at the EGR B2B Awards 2025, in recognition of the strength, innovation, and global scale of its Bet LiveStreams platform for licensed sportsbook apps, websites and retail betting venues.
Bet LiveStreams, first launched as ‘Watch&Bet’ in 2005, now delivers more than 40,000 exclusive low-latency live events each year, across 15 sports. Football, the world’s largest betting sport, accounts for more than 15,000 matches, with rights including LaLiga, CONCACAF, English Football League and top domestic leagues and cups across Europe, South America, and APAC. Other sports include tennis, basketball, volleyball, darts, badminton, rugby and cricket.
Judges noted that Stats Perform’s Bet LiveStreams is unique because of its extensive year-long, round-the-clock coverage and high performance. In 2024, the platform securely delivered billions of live video sessions to hundreds of licensed global sportsbooks such as bet365, Betano, Superbet, Betfair, FanDuel and many more.
They also praised its interactive, built-for-betting features like betslip integration, instant highlights, and in-stream contextual stats (also known as Opta Interactive Overlays) that have made the watching and betting experience more engaging for bettors.
“Our focus with Bet LiveStreams has been to make live streams easy to watch and bettable, whoever is playing,” said Mike Perez, Chief Operating Officer at Stats Perform. “The features give bettors more entertainment from every stream, whether it’s a headline fixture like Tottenham v Liverpool in the Carabao Cup, or a six-goal thriller in South America that might otherwise have been overlooked. We’re delighted our efforts have been recognised with this award.”
The judging panel pointed to three standout recent Bet LiveStreams innovations:
- Opta Interactive Overlays: Live game and player stats and odds available directly in-stream, with bets added to the slip in one click
- Instant Highlights: Key moments can be replayed during the game to help bettors quickly catch up on relevant action, such as the moment their bet won, or see action they missed in other live games, with multi-game playlists across competitions
- Live Match Gallery: Easier discovery of concurrent events, helping bettors follow more matches and sports at the same time
Adoption of these features has been fast and operators have reported a 7x increase in interactions per session, longer watch times and more in-play bets placed.
“This award is a reflection of how far streaming can go when it’s built for betting, not just viewing. We’re excited to continue to integrate our Opta data and AI into the experience to make the future of streaming on sportsbooks more engaging, intuitive and bettable,” added Perez.

Spinomenal presents new slot: Queen of Oasis

Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has released its latest title, Queen of Oasis.
Set against the rolling ancient Egyptian dunes and lush, palm-lined oases, Queen of Oasis immerses players in an elegant world of riches. Camels, vultures, antelopes, snakes, and the powerful Queen herself bring this 5-reel slot to life. The reels sit within two ornate marble pillars where the bejewelled Queen represents the Wild symbol.
During the main game, the Queen counts for any symbol except Free Spins and Bonus symbols. Finding five Wild symbols on a winning line pays x2,000 the bet.
Queen of Oasis is a crowning triumph thanks to the two superb features, a Bonus game and Free Spins. Three or more Scattered Free Spins symbols trigger the special feature. Before Free Spins commence, players can either accept the current number awarded or throw caution to the wind to earn more – up to 50 free spins. Once activated, one to three stacked Wilds are placed on random reels during each spin and boosting potential returns.
The bonus game is initiated when three or more Scattered Bonus Symbols land on the reels. Players kick off with three spins and the goal is finding as many urns as possible to increase the multiplier metre which pays out once the spins are finished. Each sector of the multiplier metre is filled by five winning symbols and there is an opportunity to bag an extra spin by finding the +1 symbol.
Synced Reels and Expanding Reels add another exciting element to the Bonus Game.
Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Queen of Oasis is a beautiful blend of visual elegance and bold gameplay. Every feature has been created to captivate, reward, and raise the bar for what an Egyptian-themed slot can deliver.”
