Both nations will bring forth their top Counter Strike 2 teams.

Gaming in India has been growing faster than ever, so much so that it is now being used to celebrate the country’s diplomatic ties with other nations. India and Indonesia recently completed 75 years of diplomatic ties and to commemorate this momentous occasion, Skyesports has collaborated with the Indonesian Embassy in New Delhi to host an esports competition between the two nations.

This will take place at the 6th India Gaming Show 2024, which is set to take place between March 14 to March 16 in Pune, India. This event has been organised by the Confederation of Indian Industry and it will feature gaming, animation and infotainment. The esports battle between the two will take place at the Skyesports Grand Slam. It will feature the top Counter Strike 2 teams from both nations in an epic exhibition match.

Other than the exhibition match between the two countries at Skyesports Grand Slam, we will also see other nations take part in this competition, these will include one team from India, one team from Australia and two from the European region. A report by Niko Partners on the Asia Games Market reveals that there are more than 180 million gamers in Indonesia and India has more than 421 million of them, with all of them being in the 16-64 age group. This event will hopefully bring gaming and esports to an even wider audience in both nations.

Here’s what Shiva Nandy, the Founder and CEO of Skyesports shared on the occasion:

“We are thrilled to be hosting the India – Indonesia showmatch at the India Gaming Show 2024 in Pune as a part of our Skyesports Grand Slam IP. As the esports industry continues to soar globally, this collaborative initiative between Skyesports and The Indonesian Embassy in New Delhi not only celebrates the longstanding diplomatic ties between India and Indonesia but also underscores the immense potential of esports as a platform for cultural exchange and international cooperation. This showmatch exemplifies how gaming transcends boundaries, bringing together diverse communities in friendly competition, and signifies a significant milestone in the evolution of esports on the world stage.”

Check out what a representative from the Indonesian Embassy in New Delhi shared below:

“We highly appreciate the collaboration between The Indonesian Embassy in New Delhi with Skyesports in the Skyesports Grand Slam, as this is also a great opportunity to commemorate the 75th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Indonesia and India by doing people-to-people contact activities. Various activities have been planned, such as an exhibition game between both teams from Indonesia and India, a panel discussion with stakeholders from both countries as speakers, and promoting Indonesia local games through Indonesia Pavillion at the Exhibition that show potentials for the Indian market.”

Online casino brand Slot Games has officially launched its latest player engagement feature, the Daily Wheel. The new feature allows registered users to claim one free spin every 24 hours, providing an opportunity to win free spins on a selection of popular slot titles.

The Daily Wheel is designed as a simple, engaging mechanic that adds excitement to the regular Slot Games experience. By giving players one daily free spin at no cost, it introduces a sense of anticipation and routine that rewards players for returning to the brand. Each spin of the wheel may unlock free spins on exciting titles.

Unlike many promotions that require a deposit to participate, the Daily Wheel is completely free to access. Players need only log in, spin the wheel once per day, and see whether they win free spins to use on the specified slot titles. Free spins are credited as bonus funds, with a 65x wagering requirement, and maximum conversion equal to lifetime deposits up to £250. Full terms and conditions apply.

The management team at Slot Games said:
“The launch of the Daily Wheel reflects our commitment to creating fun, rewarding features that enhance the player experience. Offering one free spin each day is a small but meaningful way to reward our community. It keeps players engaged, gives them a reason to return daily, and strengthens our overall retention strategy. We believe this feature will be well-received and will be something our players are fond of.”

Daily rewards have become an increasingly popular feature in the online gaming sector. They not only encourage consistent activity but also create moments of excitement that fit seamlessly into a player’s routine. The Slot Games team has aligned the Daily Wheel with this trend, ensuring that the reward mechanism is straightforward, accessible, and appealing to all players.

In addition to the new feature, Slot Games continues to expand its offering of slot titles and table games. The platform is licensed and regulated in the UK, operating under strict guidelines to ensure fairness, security, and responsible play. The introduction of the Daily Wheel further demonstrates Slot Games’ approach to combining compliance with creativity, giving players engaging promotions that remain within regulatory frameworks.

The Daily Wheel is available to all registered players, and spins reset every 24 hours. Whether a player logs in first thing in the morning or later in the evening, they will always have a chance to use their daily free spin within that period. This accessibility makes the promotion easy to understand and participate in, while maintaining an element of anticipation that encourages daily engagement.

Slot Games encourages both new and existing players to explore the Daily Wheel and take advantage of the free spin opportunity. With no deposit required, it’s a great way to discover some of the site’s most popular slot games while enjoying an extra layer of entertainment.

The Daily Wheel is live now and can be accessed via the promotions section on SlotGames.co.uk. Players are invited to log in today and give it a spin.

“Fruitferno 40” went live, a new 5×4 slot from Hölle Games. It comes just a few weeks after the Dragon’s Diamonds launch, a cluster-style title with an equally hot theme! Following up to that 6×5 scatter-pays smasher, the Hölle team have taken a short detour to drop a 40-payline sequel to Fruitferno 20, for all those slot purists out there.

In addition to the de rigeur Fruits ensemble of Cherries, Oranges, Lemons etc, it also has stacked 7 Wilds on all reels, which if hit will pay out a tasty 3300x stake. Star Scatters award Bonus Spins when they land, and there is of course the accompanying Card and Ladder Gambles to heat things up. Refined graphics and audio complete the experience and medium-high volatility keeps it on the spicy side of the street.
