E-sports Games Open up New Opportunities for Boyaa Interactive as 2019 BPT Europe Concludes Successfully
Reading Time: 3 minutes
The 2019 BPT Europe–the 6th Boyaa Poker Tournament (“BPT”) held by Boyaa Interactive, concluded successfully at King’s Resort, Rozvadov, Czech on 8 December 2019. With over 600 players from 20 countries competing in the games, Karl Rupprec from Germany won the major championship.
As Chinese online game companies are entering overseas markets at a faster speed with a stronger desire, they need strong products and the vision of where cyber games are headed.
Since 2019, Boyaa Interactive has been holding online competitions for card and board games to promote its brand presence. From an industry perspective, e-sports games are now in the spotlight. As shown in the Gaming Industry Report for H1 2019 released by GPC, China’s e-sports market recorded sales revenue of RMB46.5 billion during H1 2019, up 11.3% year-on-year, with fast, stable growth over the past three years.
Fast Growth in Overseas Revenue due to High-Quality Mind Sports Games
In H1 2019, Boyaa Interactive successfully held the 2019 BPT Asia–the 5th BPT event, aiming to boost user activity and loyalty, expand its user base, and build a stronger presence in the world of card and board games. This event has made Boyaa a better-known brand.
The 2019 BPT Asia, lasting for over two months from mid-April to late June 2019, covered most countries and regions in the continent. A total of approximately 500 players made it into the finals in Taiwan, with the prizes for the major games amounting to as much as NT$6.71 million.
Since 2015, BPT events have been held in European and Asian cities such as Dublin, Macau, Sanya, Taipei and Ho Chi Minh City, attracting as many as 20 million players from more than 30 countries and regions.
As shown in its Q3 2019 report, Boyaa Interactive is seeing fast growth in overseas revenue, which is far higher than domestic revenue. For the nine months ended 30 September 2019, revenue from the simplified Chinese version of Boyaa games stood at around RMB34.88 million, while revenue from other language versions amounted to approximately RMB211 million, accounting for about 88% of the company’s total operating revenue.
ARPPU Growth in Major Game through Staying True to Entertainment and Efforts on Less Developed Markets
In addition to BPT professional competitions, Boyaa Interactive also holds “Boyaa” charity matches around the country, integrating card and board games and public benefit activities in an innovative way. Besides big prizes for players, the company also makes donations, according to the total number of players and in players’ names, to the Red Cross for the education of poor children and to support garbage sorting for a better environment.
The “Boyaa” Mahjong Competition in Chengdu–the second stop in Sichuan Province of the competition series organized by the company, was held on 15 and 16 November 2019. In those events, players can enjoy both the convenience of online gaming and the excitement and fun of offline face-to-face competition.
Driven by these events, the Q3 2019 report of Boyaa Interactive shows that the ARPPU (average revenue per paying user) grew in the web-based version of Texas Hold’em (the company’s major game) and the mobile versions of other card and board games.
With Stabilizing Operating Revenue, “E-sports Games+Going Overseas” Becomes a New Path for Boyaa Interactive
Since some bank accounts of Boyaa Interactive were temporarily frozen some time earlier, there were doubts in the market whether this would affect the strategic development of the company. But it seems there is nothing to worry about considering the frequent share buybacks by the company, as well as the success of its BPT Asia and Boyaa charity competitions in the past two months.
As indicated in its latest annual report, Boyaa Interactive seems to have found the solutions to deal with the policy risk and domestic market changes. According to its Q3 2019 report, the company recorded revenue of approximately RMB85 million during Q3 2019, up by around 6.0% from the previous quarter and up by around 0.4% from the same quarter of last year. The growth was mainly due to the impact of the policy risk factor on its revenue being controlled, and an increase in revenue benefiting from the promotion activities conducted by the company in the third quarter of 2019.
According to Boyaa Interactive’s interim results, its revenue in Q2 2019 grew by approximately 0.1% compared to Q1 2019. This shows that the earnings of the company are stabilizing and the impact of the policy risk factor on its revenue is under control.
Boyaa Interactive has gradually returned to stable development through effective measures such as business transformation. This, together with continual revenue growth driven by e-sports games and the smooth expansion in the overseas markets, are the reasons why the company’s operating revenue is expected to increase in the future to come.

Nolimit City preps the chopping block in its latest release, Dead Men Walking
Leroy wakes up every day with a smile on his face! Why you may ask? Well executing is a dirty job but Leroy just loves to swing his axe in Nolimit City’s latest release, Dead Men Walking. This medieval-themed slot falls in Nolimit City’s classic slot category with the likes of Seamen, Gator Hunters and Highway To Hell.
Reel Area
The chopping block features a 3-3-3-3-3 reel setup with three Fire Pits above the reels each linked to a unique base game feature. These features appear as scrolls and when they land there is a chance that the corresponding features will be triggered:
- xWays® (Orange Scroll) – Transforms into a normal paying symbol, revealing 2-4 symbols of the same kind and increases number of win ways
- Infectious Wild (Red Scroll) – Transforms into a random symbol and all instances of that symbol will become Wilds. If more than 1 lands, each will randomly choose a different symbol.
- xSplit® (Grey Scroll) – Splits all symbols on its row and doubles the symbol size whilst converting itself into a wild.
xNudge® Wilds
It’s a long walk from the cell to the town square. xNudge® Wilds will always nudge until fully visible, increasing the Wild Multiplier by 1 with each nudge. Once fully visible the Dead Man’s March begins and moves 1 step left, further increasing its multiplier by 1 until it reaches the first reel. If an xNudge® Wild reaches the left-most reel and another xNudge® Wild is present on the reels, then it transfers its multiplier to the nearest one. Dead Man’s March will be awarded until the last xNudge® Wild reaches the first reel.
Dead Man’s Gold
No amount of gold could get you out of this one. Landing 3, 4 or 5 Bonus symbols will trigger 3, 4 or 5 Dead Man’s Gold Bonus Spins respectively. Bonus spins are on a 5×5 reel where coins and Feature Coins can land. When 4 or more coins align vertically or horizontally, they are collected and paid out. The following Feature Coins can land on the reels:
- Collector – Collects the value of all active coins
- Cloner – Copies the highest coin value to all active coins
- Multiplier – Doubles the value of all visible coins
- King’s Grace – Resets the bonus spins counter to its initial value
Reaper’s Gold
Things get taken to the next level when upgrading normal Bonus symbols to Gold Bonus symbols. Landing 3, 4 or 5 Gold Bonus symbols trigger 3, 4 or 5 Reaper’s Gold Bonus Spins respectively. In addition to features of Dead Man’s Gold, Feature Coins are triggered as soon as they land. Pretty killer if you ask us!
Nolimit Boosters
Make sure to make your last few days memorable with the following Nolimit Boosters:
- Bonus 1 – More likely to activate Dead Man’s Gold. When 1 Bonus symbol lands on the reel area, 1-4 additional Bonus symbols may be added to the Bonus Board.
- Booster 2 – Bonus symbols are upgraded to Gold Bonus symbols to trigger Reaper’s Gold.
- Booster 3 – More likely to activate Reaper’s Gold. When 1 Gold Bonus symbol lands on the reel area, 1-4 additional Gold Bonus symbols may be added to the Bonus Board.
- Booster 4 – guarantees a minimum of 1 xNudge® Wild.
Extra Spin
In Dead Man’s Gold and Reaper’s Gold, players might get the opportunity to purchase an additional spin when a round ends. The additional spins will keep the multiplier state of the symbols of the previous spins. The cost of the spins is calculated based on multiplier values.
We wish you the very best on your first and last dead man’s march. Dead Men Walking has a maximum payout of 25,313x the base bet. Dead Men Walking is rated as “Highly Volatile” delivering the thrilling high-stakes gameplay that Nolimit City fans know and love.
Per Lindheimer, Head of Product at Nolimit City, said: “In life you do bad things, you go to jail. In Dead Men Walking, you go straight to the chopping block, which sucks. It’s not all doom and gloom tho. xNudge® Wilds that walk are sick and Fire Pits that can trigger xWays®, xSplit® and Infectious Wilds are pretty sick too! We’re also debuting 2 new kinds of hold ‘n’ spin (kind of) bonus games that players will definitely find interesting.”
‘Dead Men Walking’ will be available to all Nolimit City partners on September 9th, 2025.
