Relax Gaming sees its wildest bandito return in Wild Chapo 2 Dream Drop
Relax Gaming, the iGaming aggregator and supplier of unique content, is readying itself for the biggest breakout of the year as everyone’s favourite outlaw returns in Wild Chapo 2 Dream Drop.
The much-loved Mexican anti-hero, Chapo, is looking to get out of jail and help land players Mega Jackpots in this 6×3 epic. Big wins come through Wild Re-Spins, Free Spins and of course, the legendary Dream Drop Jackpot.
Wild symbols appear on reels two and five and trigger a re-spin. Re-spins continue as long as wins involving a wild symbol occur; all wilds are held in place during each re-spin.
Each wild displays a number between one and five, representing the number of wins it must be part of before being collected. This number decreases by one with every win. Once a Wild reaches zero, it is collected under the reel.
After the re-spins, a final spin occurs where the collected wilds expand to fill the reel, creating wild reels. Wins with multiple wilds have their multiplier values combined for greater rewards.
Free Spins are triggered by collecting three or more bonus symbols during a game round. Wild symbols remain on the reels throughout the feature, either until they are collected or until the final spin. At the end of the feature, a final spin is awarded, where collected wilds expand to fill the reel above them. Every bonus symbol that lands during Free Spins awards one extra spin.
Landing a large DD symbol automatically triggers the Dream Drop Bonus game, which is presented as two jackpot wheels. A jackpot is won when both wheels stop and pair the same jackpot, or when one of the wheels stops on a wild. When both jackpot wheels stop on Wild, a re-spin of the wheels is triggered.
Shelley Hannah, CPO at Relax Gaming, said: “Wild Chapo is a long-standing favourite amongst our players, and Wild Chapo 2 seemed like the perfect game to receive a Dream Drop makeover. We know this slot is popular, but we truly believe adding our much-loved jackpot will elevate it to new heights.”

Gamification
GoldenRace launches V5 mobile solution with unified app and WebGL branding
GoldenRace has launched its next-generation V5 mobile solution, the supplier announced on 1 July 2026 in Malta. The company positions the release as a mobile delivery upgrade for its virtual sports and betting content, aimed at maintaining performance under high player traffic.
According to GoldenRace, V5 consolidates its previous architecture into a single application and “drastically reduces load sizes by 80–90%.” The company also said the platform is built “completely from the ground up” with a unified UI/UX designed to remain responsive across different network conditions.
On product features, GoldenRace said V5 introduces “advanced WebGL capabilities” to support high-fidelity graphics and operator-controlled branding. It also adds native gamification tools across games, including custom Tournaments, Leaderboards and Free Bets.
The company also outlined three mobile upgrades intended to reduce friction in the betting flow: a Lobby with modular layouts and a one-click toggle between scheduled and instant views; a next-generation Betslip with richer visual components and “smart organisation”; and dynamic Leaderboards with configurable funding and custom point logic.
GoldenRace said operators can switch to V5 by “changing a single line of code,” and added that a demo is available for operators evaluating the new mobile solution.

PopOK Gaming secures certification for Portugal iGaming market
PopOK Gaming has obtained certification for the Portuguese iGaming market, adding Portugal to its list of regulated jurisdictions where it can offer compliant gaming content to licensed operators.
The company said the certification confirms it meets local regulatory and technical requirements and supports its strategy to expand in regulated markets.
PopOK Gaming did not disclose which regulator or test lab issued the certification, which products are covered, or the date the approval was granted.
Portugal continues to operate a ring-fenced regulated online gambling framework, with market access dependent on product approvals and operator licensing. For suppliers, local certification is typically a prerequisite to distribute content to licensed brands.

API
St8 adds game round replays to its single API platform
Replay tool builds on St8’s graphical game round details and launches first with nine casino game studios.
St8 has launched game round replays, adding visual playback of completed casino game rounds to its existing single API platform. The company said the feature is designed to help operators verify outcomes faster and resolve player queries more efficiently.
The new capability builds on St8’s graphical game round details, which it said is already used by operators. With replays, support and operations teams can access a round’s visual playback to investigate gameplay disputes and respond to players with more transparency.
St8 also positioned the feature as a player engagement tool, with operators able to surface notable moments such as big wins and bonus rounds for promotional use.
Game round replays will initially support titles from AvatarUX, BGaming, Endorphina, Hacksaw, Peter & Sons, Pragmatic Play, Scatter Kings, Shady Lady, and Tequity Originals, with more providers to be added. St8 said the feature is delivered through its existing single API integration and requires no additional development work, and is intended to scale across multiple brands and regulated markets.
David Fall, Business Development Manager at St8, said: “Operators are under increasing pressure to deliver exceptional customer support while keeping operational costs under control. Our graphical game round details have become a trusted and widely used tool for operators, giving support teams quick access to the information they need to resolve player queries efficiently. Game round replays complement this capability by providing a visual playback of each round, helping teams resolve cases even faster and with complete confidence.
“Beyond operational efficiency, the feature also opens up new opportunities for engagement. Operators can showcase exciting gameplay moments, celebrate big wins and create richer player experiences – all through the same integration. Because game round replays are delivered through our existing single API, partners can access this functionality immediately while continuing to benefit from the simplicity and scalability that sit at the heart of the St8 platform.”
