World Leading Mobile Game Developer Kabam to Expand North American HQ with Lease in Vancouver Centre IIReading Time: 3 minutes

 

Kabam set to lease 105,000 square feet in cutting-edge Vancouver office tower

 

Vancouver-based mobile game developer, Kabam, announced the next phase of its growth with the long-term lease of 105,000 square feet across seven floors at Vancouver Centre II (VCII). The project, which is being developed by GWL Realty Advisors, has a targeted completion date of 2021. VCII will be the first office tower completed in the current cycle of downtown office development.

Kabam is excited to collocate into one unified, agile work environment. The company thinks the amenities are fantastic, and they know their four-legged team members will be excited to have a special place to enjoy as well.

“Kabam is exactly the kind of forward-thinking, industry-leading firm we had in mind when we designed VCII,” says Geoff Heu, Vice President, Development – Western Canada, GWL Realty Advisors. “With VCII’s premier location in the downtown tech hub and its direct connection to two transit lines, it’s not surprising the building is already one-third leased before excavation is even complete. With the current exceptionally low office vacancy rate of 3.9 per cent, we are confident that VCII will be fully leased prior to completion.”

Founded in 2006, Kabam has become a global leader in multi-player mobile games with blockbuster releases such as Marvel Contest of Champions, which has had more than 168 million downloads worldwide since 2014. With over 400 employees across its Vancouver, San Francisco and Austin offices, Kabam sees Vancouver as a key part of its long-term expansion plans.

As VCII’s lead tenant, Kabam will have access to first-class amenities, including the 29th Floor Skyline Rooftop Deck; a state-of-the-art fitness facility and yoga studio; end-of-trip cycling facilities; and dog-friendly facilities. The project is targeting LEED Platinum certification and is registered with the International WELL Building Institute™. VCII’s Wired Certification will ensure it has the digital infrastructure to addresses the advanced technology needs of today and the capacity to upgrade to meet future needs.

Kabam’s quest for a new location was driven by its long-term growth plans. After partnering with Colliers International to determine key criteria, it became evident that Kabam’s property search should be driven by the needs of current and future employees. Following a comprehensive review of available properties, Kabam found that VCII checked more boxes than any other offering and met the most important criteria for supporting Kabam’s team and their long-term growth for years to come.

“We were thrilled to be able to assist Kabam with such an exciting project, and we’re happy to have found a great option like VCII,” says Matt Carlson, Vice President, Colliers International Canada. “It was also very refreshing to see Kabam’s leadership take an employee-first approach, by asking what their real estate can do to improve the overall workplace experience for their team, and how they can attract and retain the best talent in the industry.”

When complete, VCII will sit squarely in the middle of Vancouver’s new commercial office district, which has shifted east in recent years. GWL Realty Advisors is developing VCII on behalf of owners: The Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan, the Great-West Life Real Estate Fund, and London Life Real Estate Fund.

Evoplay celebrates the holidays with fast-paced fun in Uncrossable Rush X-mas

Published

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Evoplay, the award-winning game development studio, has given its hit title Uncrossable Rush a festive makeover with the release of Uncrossable Rush Xmas.

The new edition reintroduces Eggwina, the fearless chicken from the original game, for another wild road-crossing adventure, this time through a snowy landscape filled with flashing lights, holiday traffic, and plenty of chaos.

Based on the mechanics of CrossyRun under the licence from SlotСatalog, Uncrossable Rush Xmas challenges players to guide Eggwina across 32 unpredictable lanes, dodging cars and trucks to reach the other side.

Players can cash out their winnings at any moment or take another risky move to test their luck for bigger rewards.

Designed to meet the excitement of the year’s most active period, the game now features an expanded multiplier distribution across more tracks, creating a longer progression curve and stronger momentum throughout each run.

These improvements heighten engagement and make every round more rewarding while preserving everything players loved about the original release.

Four difficulty levels allow players to choose their pace, ranging from a gentle holiday stroll to full-speed festive mayhem. The higher the setting, the faster the traffic flows and the larger the starting multiplier increases.

No two rounds are alike, with randomised traffic patterns ensuring each run remains fresh and unpredictable.

For those who like to plan ahead, the game’s autoplay mode offers complete control, allowing players to set bet amounts, behaviour after wins or losses, and even stop conditions for profit or loss.

Ivan Kravchuk, CEO at Evoplay, said: Uncrossable Rush Xmas brings back the fun and intensity of the original while adding a joyful twist. We’ve enhanced progression and engagement to create a more dynamic experience that captures the excitement of the holidays, giving players plenty of reasons to jump in and enjoy the rush.”

“With its playful design, fast-paced gameplay, and spirit of adventure, Uncrossable Rush X-mas delivers an experience that perfectly fits the energy and excitement of the most exciting time of the year.”

Malta-based iGaming developer, Just Slots, has announced the release of its latest slot title, Book of Abyss. In this dark fantasy adventure, players descend into the realm of Abyss, a fallen queen demoness bound to a cursed diary. Every spin of the reels echoes Abyss’s torment, and when the mystical Book feature opens, players peer into forbidden chapters of her soul. Each expanded page reveals fragments of Abyss’s desire, vengeance and eternal struggle, making Book of Abyss more than just a slot, but a ritualistic journey into passion and damnation.

While built on the familiar “Book” mechanics that fans love, Book of Abyss pushes the boundaries further with powerful visuals and narratives, and a huge 150,000x max win. Free spins plunge players into Abyss’s blazing underworld, where expanding symbols and high multipliers turn every spin into a battle for domination. The game also offers Bonus Buy and the popular HotSpin feature, giving players extra ways to ignite the action. In short, Book of Abyss feels comfortably familiar but boldly fresh, blending the beloved style of Book of Arcane with a darker and more seductive twist, and pushing the max win potential even higher.

Inspired by gothic fantasy and occult myth, Abyss portrays a dangerous yet captivating fallen queen. Her design is painted in a palette of cold emerald shadows and scorching inferno reds to reflect her dual nature, restraint on the page versus wrath unleashed. Book of Abyss expands creative horizons with its blend of myth, sensuality and suspense. Just Slots has crafted it with its audience in mind, knowing players crave immersive and narrative driven slots with frequent bonuses. The game’s mystical theme, striking aesthetic and rich storytelling diversifies the company’s portfolio and continues its trend of reinventing bold new concepts, from the candy coated charm of Sugar Heaven to the mystical allure of Book of Arcane.

Commenting on the release, Christine Parkhill, Chief Commercial Officer at Just Slots, said, “Book of Abyss is an epic adventure. We’ve taken the successful formula of our ‘Book’ game and plunged it into a deeper and darker territory. Players can expect the high-volatility features they love including expanding symbols, free spins, multipliers and a massive 150,000x max win, wrapped in a haunting gothic tale of desire and vengeance. Every page of Abyss’s cursed diary that players unlock immerses them further into her forbidden world. Book of Abyss is a ritualistic journey through the soul of a demoness and we can’t wait for players to explore its secrets page by page.”

Book of Abyss goes live today and will be available on leading sites such as Gamdom.com, Biggg.com , Stake.com , LuckyDreams.com  and more. A demo is also available on Just Slots’ website, inviting players to get a sense of Abyss’s realm before embarking on the full experience. To keep the fire of Abyss’s story burning long after launch, Just Slots plans operator-led tournaments, instant prize drops and streamer collaborations, offering extra excitement beyond the core gameplay.

Rings of Prosperity channels divine favour

Published

Play’n GO presents Rings of Prosperity, a slot rooted in ancient mysticism and the power of celestial guidance.

Play’n GO’s Rings of Prosperity draws on the influence of Eastern mythology, placing players under the protection of the Dragon God – a symbol of strength and abundance. Following in the footsteps of narrative-led titles such as Temple of Prosperity, this 5-reel slot embraces a thematic focus on balance and transformation, expressed through sacred rings, golden coins, and the celestial influence of a Prosperity Wheel.

With its strong visual identity and symbolic layering, Rings of Prosperity creates a holistic player experience that’s both visually rich and narratively focused.

The heart of the game lies in its interconnected symbols and celestial mechanisms. RINGS – in green, red, and purple – appear and evolve through the divine will of the Dragon God, ultimately transforming into golden coins. These coins are more than visual rewards – they symbolise earned blessings, tying directly into the theme of spiritual wealth.

At pivotal moments, the Prosperity Wheel spins into view, acting as a divine arbiter. This design choice elevates the gameplay by anchoring key moments in the will of a higher force, rather than random chance – in line with Play’n GO’s focus on storytelling-led slots that prioritise immersion and meaning.

Rings of Prosperity shares conceptual DNA with titles such as Temple of Prosperity and Fortune Rewind, continuing Play’n GO’s exploration of time, wealth, and divine influence. While Temple of Prosperity invokes nature spirits and ritualistic iconography, Rings of Prosperity focuses on celestial transformation – using colour, motion, and myth to communicate progress and reward.

Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador at Play’n GO said:“Our goal with Rings of Prosperity was to build a symbolic system players could intuitively connect with. Every visual element feeds into the core narrative.”

With its elegant symbolism and visual clarity, Rings of Prosperity rewards players not just with gameplay, but meaning.
