BTG’s Action-Packed ‘The Race Megaways™’ Hits Evolution Network from 15th March

The Race Megaways™ is the new action-packed gameshow-style slot from Big Time Gaming, and it will be hurtling onto the Evolution Network exclusively from 15th March with a general release across all platforms by 22nd March. With fast-paced gameplay and thrilling audio-visuals, The Race Megaways™ is full of the technological twists we’ve come to expect from the Sydney-based games studio. Using BTG’s acclaimed Megaways™ mechanic, the number of winning pay lines changes with every spin, reaching anything up to 117,649 when the reels get hot.
Ready. Set. Race! Get ready for an adrenaline pumping run in BTG’s The Race™. Experience a spike in your heart rate when Wilds duplicate across the reels. Race through an adrenaline charged Heart Bonus searching for lives to keep your Free Spins racing! Free Spins are a hair raising experience as the unlimited win multiplier mixes with Wild duplication multipliers for truly electrifying wins! Land three scatters in the base game to enter the Heart Bonus Free Spins round. Here, a 4×5 grid will offer you three free spins, as you search for lives in form of Heart symbols to keep going.
Each time a Heart lands, the spin counter will reset to the full free spins until you run out of lives or all 20 Hearts symbols are awarded. Hold onto your Hearts for as long as possible to max out spin potential. Any Wild added to the reels by Wild Duplication gains a multiplier of up to x5 to really kick your wins up a notch. Pair this with the unlimited win multiplier and the action gets even more explosive.
Can’t wait for the bonus game? Then just click the Bonus Buy icon to purchase Free Spins for 100 times stake and get yourself straight into the action.
Kick it up a notch with Win Exchange™ to exchange a big win for the chance to be awarded more Free Spins, with the chance of winning the gamble shown in green on a wheel. Do you stick or twist?
Gionata La Torre, Chief Executive Officer Europe at Evolution said: “This game has it all: adrenaline rush, tension, action, and some truly mind-blowing features. We know our players are going to love The Race Megaways™, and we’re delighted that we get to debut another smash hit from BTG.”
Nik Robinson, BTG CEO, said: “We’re constantly thinking about new features that will surprise and delight players, while pushing the boundaries of what a slot can do. And the sky’s the limit! I really think The Race Megaways™ represents something new and exhilarating, and that’s why I’m so excited about this launch.”

BLAST teams up with Fortnite for third year and will operate the entire 2023 Fortnite Champion Series

BLAST has teamed up for a third consecutive year with Fortnite, and this year will produce and deliver the entire 2023 Fortnite Champion Series (FNCS) with a combined prize pool of $10 million on the line.
As part of the collaboration, BLAST will work with the Competitive Fortnite team to deliver three Majors and bring FNCS to an epic conclusion for the year when the Global Championship takes place in-person from Copenhagen, Denmark in late 2023 with an eye-watering $4 million on the line.
The new FNCS format consists of three Majors played across February and March (Major One), April and May (Major Two) and July and August (Major Three). All three Majors will see the European and North American regions produced and broadcasted from BLAST’s Copenhagen studios with broadcast talent on-site and players playing remotely.
The announcement strengthens and deepens the esports entertainment company’s relationship with Competitive Fortnite, after having delivered the entire 2022 FNCS schedule and the long-awaited return to Fortnite in-person events in Raleigh, North Carolina last November for the FNCS Invitational.
BLAST first teamed up with Fortnite in 2021, when delivering the FNCS All-Star Showdown and FNCS Grand Royale events.
Leo Matlock, MD of Development at BLAST, said: “Extending and expanding the BLAST and Competitive Fortnite partnership into a third year is testament to the brilliant progress that has been made with FNCS over the last few years. We are really proud of the journey we’ve been on with the Competitive Fortnite team and how we have been able to support them in elevating the FNCS fan experience by focusing on player-led storylines and fan-first production techniques. 2023 is turning out to be another thrilling year, Major One has already been completed from the BLAST Copenhagen studios and we’re excited to deliver the remaining three FNCS events with a combined prize pool of $8 million on the line.
“We look forward to building on last year’s unforgettable return to Fortnite in-person events for the FNCS Invitational in Raleigh, North Carolina by bringing the year-defining FNCS Global Championship to our hometown of Copenhagen, Denmark for fans and players to enjoy later this year.”
