Here are this weeks latest slots releases compiled by European Gaming

Spinomenal is shining bright again with its newest premium slot game release, Story of Jarptitsa. This game forms a part of Spinomenal’s fantastic Folktale series. Story of Jarptitsa is a 5-reel, 100-payline game that follows an ancient firebird on a voyage through a wooded landscape at dusk that glistens with purple ethereal fireflies. Medium symbols in play include a horse, wolf, golden birdcage and a branch laden with roses.

Lucksome, the developer of online casino games to treasure, is taking players back to the glitz and glamour of the 80’s in its latest action-packed slot, Miami Cash FatStacks™ where they can spin the reels while tapping their feet to the disco beat.

The most romantic floating city in the world is the setting for the latest slot game developed by MGA Games. Online casino operators can already count on Fruits of Venice for their digital catalogues, the new 5-reel slot game production from MGA Games, which takes users on a journey through the canals and charming streets of Venice, in search of important prizes. Fruits of Venice features high-quality and detailed graphics that recreate the beauty of this Italian city, offering players a captivating gaming experience.

Yggdrasil, a leading iGaming publisher, has partnered with Peter & Sons to take players on a hunt for big wins in latest collaborative release Peter Hunter.

Relax Gaming, is inviting knights of the realm to mount their horses and join the fun in its latest release Joker Split. This high-volatility medieval slot can see players win 20,000x their bet by way of splitting wild re-spins and lucrative free spins with wild symbols that can jump onto the game reels. Any wild symbol that forms part of a winning cluster will jump out of the reel, duplicate itself and force a re-spin. During that re-spin the wilds from the previous spin will jump back into play.

Spinomenal is proud to announce the release of the next instalment of its mythical mega hit series Demi Gods, Demi Gods V. In this latest saga, players are offered another captivating opportunity to experience the splendour of ancient Greece and compete for glory. Atlas, Selene, Helios and Hera form the core characters, each one represented by a high-value symbol and offering a different Free Spins feature.

Nolimit’s previous release DJ Psycho took players up to the DJ stand for a night players would never forget – and their latest release is visiting the eccentric once more. This time around, it’s less nightclub and more graveyard, more specifically taking place in – The Crypt. Echoing the sentiment that ‘legends never die’, Nolimit seemed to take the meaning quite literally – with the provider proclaiming “It took a Nolimit slot to get the world’s greatest and most-decomposed stars together for one last ride – to produce one extremely volatile banger.”

In the latest addition to the Crystal Fruits series, 81 Crystal Fruits, Tom Horn Gaming invites players once again to step into a world of popular crystalline fruits. Overflowing with revamped features and a dynamic gameplay, this latest addition reshapes the traditional fruit-themed slot experience, promising an unending cascade of wins and thrills that will enthral both newcomers and seasoned players alike.

This month, hotshot software developer, Swintt, is asking players to spin like an Egyptian in their latest Premium release, Cleopatras Pearls – a brand-new, pharaoh-themed slot that sees the welcome return of the studio’s popular Pearl feature and four signature jackpots. Being a Premium title, Cleopatras Pearls again features the familiar sounds and gameplay mechanics players will recognise from classic slot machines; though the game’s graphics have certainly been given a new lick of paint, with action taking place in front of an atmospheric hieroglyphic-strewn background.

Light & Wonder, Inc. has announced the release of Smash Nudge Skillstar, a compelling new title from specialist slot provider Lightning Box, one of Light & Wonder’s in-house studios. Set in a futuristic roller derby arena, Smash Nudge Skillstar is a captivating 4×5 slot which showcases an enchanting Free Games round, where players are awarded up to 20 Free Games. The Free Games round also exhibits a multiplier wheel, which multiplies any prizes up to 10x on that particular spin.

Wizard Games is getting dressed up for a big Mexican celebration in its latest slot, Carnival of Calacas. The provider invites players to join the festivities, with a colourful 5×3 grid full of traditional Día de los Muertos symbols. Landing three or more baskets on any spin will activate the Ofrenda Bonus, offering the chance to pick a basket and reveal a multiplier from 2x-500x. The more baskets that land, the higher the potential for a big prize.

The 6-reel, 40 payline slot is set in a captivating land brimming with national treasures and the special symbols encapsulate Yggdrasil’s popular Game Engagement Mechanic (GEM) GigaBlox. At any given time, 2×2, 3×3 and 4×4 GigaBlox symbols can land rather than single ones. These are also joined by lucrative Gong symbols and the super wild, represented by a Koi fish.

Realistic Games, has launched its latest slot, Destination Atlantis, a wild multiplier reel-focused release inspired by the ancient wonder of the lost city. Played across six reels in a variety of sizes, the title has thematic symbols such as diving equipment, scientists and explorers which must form a matching combination across 3,969 winning ways to award a win. Wilds substitute for all base game symbols to boost winning opportunities while players can activate two separate ante bets to align with their own playstyle.

Kalamba Games implements multiple bonus rounds in its latest Asian-inspired release Moonrise Fortunes Hold and Win. Paying homage to the Far East, this 5×3 reeled slot has symbols depicting lamps, vases and flowers, these must form a matching combination across the title’s 20 paylines to award a win. These are joined by wilds large enough to fill an entire reel, making it easier for players to form wins.

Nailed It! Games, an independent Krakow-based games studio, is bringing the luck of the Irish to its newest release, Rainbow Burst.

Players must land winning combinations across 10 paylines to create a win.

Players can start reeling in the loot with up to six random wilds or up to five multiplier wilds that can appear randomly during a base game spin and for a truly massive win, a Colossal Wild that is 4×3 in size can also land randomly for Viking-sized pay-outs.

Playson, the fast-growing digital entertainment supplier, is launching its most electrifying release yet with Energy Coins: Hold and Win; as a lightning bolt waits to strike the reels at any time for big wins. With the combination of mouthwatering fruits and gold coins, players can enjoy amplified gameplay as symbols land on five reels.

R. Franco Digital, Spain’s leading iGaming provider, is taking players on the ultimate space voyage in its latest release Black Nebula.

FDJ UNITED, a leader in lottery, betting and gaming in Europe, announced its results for the first half of 2025.

• First-half revenue of €1867m: up +31% compared with H1 2024 reported and down -2% on a restated basis

• Buoyant performance by the French lottery and retail sports betting BU with revenue of €1290m, up +4% on a restated basis

• Lottery revenue rose by +6% to €1065m. This performance can be attributed to the whole range of games and all distribution channels, particularly digital, which rose by +16% to €160m

• Point-of-sale sports betting revenue fell by -6% to €225m. This change reflects unfavourable sports results for the operator, despite stakes boosted by an attractive football offering (+4%)

• Online betting and gaming BU2 revenue of €466m, down -12% on a restated basis

• This change reflects a very unfavourable 2024 comparison base, due in particular to the Euro football tournament, as well as tax and regulatory impacts in 2025, particularly in the Netherlands and the UK. Excluding these two markets, revenue would be up 5% thanks to the performance of other countries, including France

• Second-quarter revenue came to €235m, up +2% compared with the first quarter of 2025

• Recurring EBITDA of €441m, representing a margin of 23.6%, or 24.4% excluding the cost of the employee share ownership plan (€14m)

• Adjusted net income of €222m

• This reflects the impact of the financing of the Kindred acquisition on the financial result and the one-off tax contribution on the profits of large French companies

• 2025 objectives reiterated: stable revenue versus 2024 pro forma, with a recurring EBITDA margin of over 24%

• Successful employee share ownership plan bringing the share of capital held by employees to 4.6%

• Taken up by more than half of employees and largely oversubscribed

“2025 stands as a transition year for FDJ UNITED, with the integration of Kindred well on track. In this context, our first-half performance is in line with the expected full-year trajectory. Besides, we are pleased by the success of the employee share ownership plan launched by the Group, reflecting our long tradition of sharing FDJ UNITED’s value creation with all stakeholders,” Stéphane Pallez, Chairwoman and Chief Executive Officer of FDJ UNITED.

The Greyhound Board of Great Britain (GBGB) has appointed Sir Philip Davies as its New Chair.

Sir Philip, who is also Chair of Star Sports, will take up post on 1st September 2025. Sir Philip served as MP for Shipley in West Yorkshire between 2005 and 2024 during which time he sat on the Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee as well as the Panel of Chairs.

Commenting on the appointment, outgoing Chair Jeremy Cooper, said: “Throughout the appointment process, Sir Philip showed himself to be a fervent supporter of licensed greyhound racing. He demonstrated a strong understanding of our sport and is clear on its future direction. I know that this appointment will be welcomed across the licensed racing community and I wish Sir Philip all the very best as he begins his tenure.

“As I conclude my time as Chair, I would like to thank the entire industry for their support during the last seven years. In particular, I would like to both thank and congratulate the GBGB Board for their ongoing commitment and support of many beneficial initiatives that we have introduced. Licensed greyhound racing is a superb sport and I am very proud to have overseen the significant progress that has been achieved around welfare. Thanks to the Greyhound Commitment and our long-term welfare strategy, animal welfare has been placed at the very heart of the sport and our greyhounds now receive higher standards of care and attention than ever before. This has only been possible as a result of the combined efforts of the greyhound community and I would like to acknowledge the part everyone throughout the sport has played in driving up standards right across the sport.”

Commenting on his appointment, Sir Philip Davies said: “I am honoured to have been appointed Chair of GBGB. Licensed greyhound racing is a fantastic sport which has held an important place in the fabric of our country for almost a century. Greyhound and horseracing have been an integral part of my life since my childhood when my mother ran a betting shop in Doncaster. As such, I know just how important greyhound racing is to local communities and what an important contribution it makes – both economically and socially.

“The sport has a very bright future ahead and I would like to thank the GBGB Board for putting their faith in me. I look forward to working with tracks, owners, trainers and our wider stakeholders as we safeguard the future of our sport and ensure it thrives for many years to come.

“Thank you to Jeremy Cooper for his leadership and stewardship over the past seven years. Thanks to his drive and ambition, welfare standards are greater than ever and, importantly, improving still.”

GBGB has also announced that Mark Bird will remain as Chief Executive for a further two years. Mark had previously announced his intention to step down but has been invited by the Board to remain as CEO to support Sir Philip and the Board which has recently welcomed Tony Brealey as Owner Practitioner Director as well as Dave Baldwin, Katie Bennison and Kim Sanzone.

Mark Bird said: “This is an important and exciting time for GBGB and licensed racing and it is vital that there is as much stability and continuity as possible within the organisation. Our sport faces a number of opportunities as well as challenges and, with Sir Philip at the helm, I believe we are very well placed to take advantage of these opportunities and address the challenges head on.

“I look forward to working with Sir Philip as we take the sport forward. Securing long-term, sustainable funding from the betting industry remains a priority and I am confident that under Sir Philip’s leadership we can make significant progress together.”

Sir Philip Davies added: “I am very pleased that Mark has agreed to remain at GBGB. He is much respected across the sport and by our many stakeholders in Government and the betting industry. I look forward to working with Mark as we continue the work he and the rest of the Board have begun.”
