Evoplay launches bee-themed slot Honey Royale with collector and jackpot features

Evoplay has launched Honey Royale, a new 5x3 slot that adds a bee-themed setting and a central Collector mechanic, the studio said on 3rd September 2026.

The game’s Queen Bee lands exclusively in the centre position of the third reel. It acts as a wild, substituting for all symbols except Cash and Jackpot. When the Queen Bee lands alongside either Cash or Jackpot, the Unlock & Win feature triggers to collect and award all displayed prizes on the reels.

Evoplay said the Queen Bee can also trigger additional mechanics, including Queen Bee Spin, which guarantees the symbol’s appearance while adding Cash and Jackpot prizes to the reels, and Jackpot Rewind, which rewinds one or more reel positions to reveal extra prizes. A related Queen Bee Rewind feature can reverse the third-reel centre position to reveal the Queen Bee, creating another chance to trigger Unlock & Win and “tease the Honey Pots” for Free Spins.

Free Spins are awarded when the Queen Bee triggers one or both Honey Pots, with one Honey Pot awarding six Free Spins and two awarding 12. During Free Spins, the Queen Bee remains locked in the centre position, while Queen Bee Spin and Jackpot Rewind can occur more frequently and the Honey Pots can retrigger for additional spins. Players can also use Booster and Super Booster options to increase the chance of triggering Free Spins, or purchase six or 12 Free Spins directly.

Ivan Kravchuk, CEO at Evoplay, said: “Honey Royale brings together a distinctive theme and a clear collection mechanic to create a game that is easy to engage with while offering plenty of opportunities for feature progression.

“The Queen Bee gives the title a strong central character and plays an important role throughout the experience, particularly during Free Spins where she remains in place and provides repeated opportunities to unlock Cash and Jackpot rewards.”
