Five slots are landing back to back between August 18 and 27, from three major providers — Nolimit City, Pragmatic Play, and Play'n GO. None of them are in any casino's catalog as of this writing: here's what's known from the providers' own announcements — RTP, volatility, and what each game is actually built around.
Every figure below comes from official provider announcements and press materials, not hands-on testing — these games haven't launched yet. On a few of the releases the provider hands operators several RTP variants to choose from; which one is live at a given casino is explained further down.
Five releases, August 18–27
Outsourced 2
Aug 18The sequel drops the original's theme almost entirely: instead of a robotic toy-assembly conveyor belt, it's a Balkan construction site — crooked scaffolding, questionable tools, and an entirely unhinged crew, delivered with the provider's trademark dark humor. Early access has been open since August 4, with the full public launch on August 18. The mechanics stay true to Nolimit City form: xNudge, xWays, Elevator symbols, and "Print Spins" Balkan Wilds that raise positional multipliers on every cascade. Volatility is extreme — a 10 out of 10 on the provider's own scale, with the top prize landing roughly once per 1.2 million spins.
Golden Retriever
Aug 20A dog-themed slot built around free spins where Wild symbols collect and stick on the reels while a multiplier climbs up to ×10. There's a separate Hold & Spin mode and a decision wheel that determines which bonus you land in. The betting range runs from $0.05 to $250, making it workable for both small and large deposits.
Cursed Moon Power Collection
Aug 20A monster-hunting slot built on the Slay Collector mechanic: defeated monsters turn into tangible rewards, and the Soul Fire multiplier decays gradually instead of firing once and resetting — which keeps the base game's pace going longer than most collector-style slots manage. A three-tier Level Up system raises the stakes as a session progresses: doubled collections, stacked coins, a guaranteed bonus at the top tier. Ways to win grow from 1,024 in the base game to 3,125 during free spins.
Bubble Up!
Aug 24Six reels and 40 paylines built around money symbols and a "frame" mechanic: a frame is guaranteed on every bonus spin, and collected scatters expand it and add extra free spins. The bonus round starts with 6 free spins guaranteed, regardless of how many scatters triggered it — a rare case where the bonus entry threshold isn't gated behind scatter luck.
Eastern Fury
Aug 27A crime-drama Asian theme — rival gangs clashing in a basement HQ. The core mechanic: an expanding Wild carrying a ×2 to ×100 multiplier first covers the entire fifth reel, and if no win forms, it respins onto the fourth reel, then the third, adding new Wild symbols along the way. The bonus awards 10, 15, or 20 free spins for 3, 4, or 5 scatters; if a Super Scatter lands among them, the bonus's minimum multiplier jumps straight to ×10 (though the free spins can't be retriggered).
Summary table
| Slot | Provider | Date | RTP | Max win |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Outsourced 2 | Nolimit City | Aug 18 | 96.04% | ×11,111 |
| Golden Retriever | Pragmatic Play | Aug 20 | 96.53% | ×5,000 |
| Cursed Moon Power Collection | Play'n GO | Aug 20 | 96.20% | ×15,000 |
| Bubble Up! | Pragmatic Play | Aug 24 | 96.52% | ×10,000 |
| Eastern Fury | Pragmatic Play | Aug 27 | 96.53% | ×10,000 |
What all five share, despite different providers and themes, is that the default RTP sits in a tight 96–96.5% band, and the core mechanic in nearly every case is a growing or expanding multiplier rather than paylines or scatter counts: Outsourced 2 runs on positional multipliers across cascades, Golden Retriever and Eastern Fury on stacking Wild multipliers, Cursed Moon Power Collection on Soul Fire. Volatility varies a lot more — from medium on Eastern Fury to extreme on Outsourced 2 — so the real choice isn't between themes, it's how rare and how large a win you're willing to wait for.
Why this matters beyond players
For an affiliate in the gambling vertical, a pre-launch digest is a working format, even if it's not the obvious one. A slot that hasn't launched yet has almost no search competition: reviews show up in bulk only on launch day and after, while search volume for the slot's name typically spikes hard in the first days post-release. An article published a few days ahead has time to get indexed before that wave hits.
One practical GEO note: at major CIS-facing operators, new Pragmatic Play, Nolimit City, and Play'n GO titles typically show up in the catalog within one to two weeks of the official launch — that includes part of the Royal Partners and PoshFriends brand portfolios. If you're planning content around a specific slot, it's worth building that lag into your expectations rather than promising same-day availability.
On the RTP spread. Three of the five slots in this digest give operators several RTP variants to pick from — Cursed Moon Power Collection, for example, ranges from 96.20% down to 84.20%. Which variant is actually live at a given casino is the operator's call, not the player's, and it can genuinely factor into where you choose to play. It's checked in the game's paytable, which lists the RTP actually configured on that specific platform.
