29 April 2025 – Play’n GO launches Bucking Rider , the latest arcade-style crash game to feature the studio’s proprietary Crashback™ mechanic. Designed to bring excitement and simplicity to all players, this title is a calculated buck from the norm – inviting players to test their nerve on a wild bull ride that can soar up to 5000x the bet. Bucking Rider swaps traditional slot reels for fast-paced decision-making. As the multiplier ticks up from 1x to a potential 5000x, players must choose the perfect moment to cash out – or risk getting thrown as the bull bucks the rider. And with the Crashback™ feature now making a return, there’s a second shot on the line. If players cash out, the ride keeps going allowing them to hop back in for a shot at an even bigger multiplier. The game’s dusty rodeo aesthetic and snappy animations bring the tension of a live arena to players. There’s no need to chase symbols or paylines – Bucking Rider is about pure risk versus reward, putting the reins directly in the player’s hands. This release builds on the foundations laid by Miner Donkey Rider , and looks to be yet another fantastic release featuring an innovative new mechanic continuing Play’n GO’s drive to push genre boundaries, as with games like Legacy of Gems Blitzways™ . Fans of arcade-style titles and casino newcomers alike will find Bucking Rider a striking mix of skill, timing and spectacle. George Olekszy, Head of Game Retention at Play’n GO, said:“ Bucking Rider is designed to shake things up. With the Crashback™ feature, players aren’t just watching – they’re making split-second decisions that can turn into serious rewards. It’s a bold format that expands what a casino game can be.” This isn’t just another ride – it’s a test of nerve, and one players will want to take again and again.

Play’n GO’s Head of Government Affairs is buoyant on the future of iGaming in the US but warns that the industry needs to reduce the mixed messaging to get lawmakers on board. 19 March 2025 – Play’n GO’s Head of Government Affairs Shawn Fluharty has predicted that there will be as many as five new online casino markets launched in US states in the next three years. Fluharty was speaking in an exclusive interview following the Next.io NYC Summit 2025 where he suggested Maryland may well be the next state to legalise iGaming, with the likes of Louisiana, Ohio and New York soon to follow. However, Fluharty suggests that the industry has been too fractured in its messaging on iGaming which is why iGaming legislation has not made it through as many US state houses as quickly as sports betting has. Play’n GO, the world-leading gaming entertainment supplier, has been a proud partner of the Next.io NYC Summit since its inception in 2021.
