How we track new releases

We pull each month’s releases from the studios directly and verify the maths before listing them, rather than repeating a press release. Titles worth a deeper look get a full review on our new slot releases desk, and the whole library is on the slots hub. A new slot is not a better slot: the RTP, the volatility and which build your casino runs matter far more than the launch date.

Set a budget before you play, and treat any new release as entertainment rather than a way to win. Help is always free and confidential through GamCare and Gambling Therapy.
