Belatra Games, the specialist online slots developer, has unveiled its festive treat this holiday season, Winter Thunder.

Swapping the arid US plains for a wintery wonderland, Winter Thunder carries players into an enchanting atmosphere surrounded by snow-covered canyons and frosty forests. Players will be joined in the wilderness by lynxes, eagles, bears, and, the star of the show, the white wolf. This represents the Wild symbol replacing symbols and covering two reel positions. If only part of the symbol lands, the reel keeps turning until it is completed.

A mountain symbol represents the Scatter and will launch free games when at least three are uncovered on the reels. The number of free spins is equal to the total of the original Scatter symbols added to the corresponding symbols at the bottom. During the round, additional free spins can be accrued, enhancing the chance of a win – the maximum is 40. The Global Multiplier equals the total number of bonus spins, and every win during the free rounds is multiplied by the total displayed.

Despite the frosty surroundings, there is a Hot Mode in-play that activates when five Scatter symbols hit. The maximum win potential is 12000x the bet.

Six or more credit symbols uncovered in the main game will bring players into the Hold-and-Win Bonus that has three wintery mini-reel spins. Credit symbols determine the total win and there are four types, including credit, bonus, extra bonus and empty.

The credit symbol returns a win, the bonus one will multiply the win by a total ranging from 20x to 100x and the extra will return a mini, minor, major, or grand extra bonus. A special element in the Hold-and-Win Bonus is the lightning strike, which has the power to electrify one of the reels and trigger an additional spin to increase returns. Players have the option to increase their stake with the Bet+100% feature, which will amplify the frequency of prize games and the Hold-and-Win bonus landing. For those eager to dive into the features sooner, Belatra’s Buy Bonus option is available.

Sergey Chernyavski, Belatra Games’ CCO, said: “This is the perfect time of year to invite players into the enchanting tundra with our holiday hit, Winter Thunder. This game brings a festive twist to the wild American wilderness, where lynxes, eagles, bears, and, of course, the mighty wolf play key roles.”

F*Bastards says it now distributes content via 400+ operators worldwide

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.
