Happy New Year! As we step into 2026, the team at Kikabet is thrilled to kick off the month with a double-header from one of our favorite partners: Pragmatic Play.
January is looking like a blockbuster month for our slots lobby, with two highly anticipated titles hitting the reels. Whether you love the nostalgic charm of retro slots or the high-stakes thrill of big bonus wheels, there is something coming for everyone.
Here is your exclusive first look at the new January releases!
1. Joker’s Jewels Hold & Spin™
Release Date: January 5, 2026
The original Joker’s Jewels has long been a staple for players who love simplicity and high volatility. But on January 5th, the jester is getting a massive upgrade.
- The Vibe: This game keeps the vibrant, purple-hued retro aesthetic of the original but cranks up the intensity.
- The Big Twist: As the name suggests, this version introduces the legendary Hold & Spin mechanic. This means you’re no longer just chasing 5-of-a-kind on a payline; you’re looking to trigger the respin round where symbols lock in place for a chance at massive multipliers.
- Key Stats:
- Max Win: Up to 10,000x your bet.
- Volatility: Very High (Prepare for a wild ride!).
- RTP: A solid 96.52%.
Why you’ll love it: It bridges the gap between "Old School" and "Modern Feature-Rich" slots. If you liked the classic version, the Hold & Spin bonus adds a layer of suspense that was missing before.
2. Wheel of Happiness™
Release Date: January 8, 2026
Just a few days later, on January 8th, Pragmatic Play invites you to spin for a different kind of joy. Wheel of Happiness is designed to bring that "Game Show" energy directly to your screen.
- The Vibe: Bright, energetic, and optimistic. This slot is all about the anticipation of the big spin.
- The Mechanic: While the base game offers smooth, high-quality play, the heart of this title is the Wheel Bonus. We’re expecting tiered wheels where you can "level up" to inner circles for bigger prizes—a mechanic that has become a fan-favorite in recent years.
- Key Stats:
- Max Win: 4,000x your bet.
- Volatility: High.
- RTP: 96.47%.
Why you’ll love it: It’s a "feel-good" slot. The animations are crisp, and the potential for a sudden, massive multiplier from a single wheel spin makes every session exciting.
How to Prepare for the Launch at Kikabet
January is going to be busy, and we want you to be ready. Here’s how to make the most of these new releases:
- Check Your Inbox: We’ll be sending out exclusive Free Spin offers to celebrate the launch of these two games.
- Try the Demo First: Both games will have a "Play for Fun" mode at Kikabet. Use it to get a feel for the volatility before you switch to real money.
- Manage Your Bankroll: With "Very High" volatility in the Joker’s Jewels sequel, remember to pace your bets to enjoy the session longer!
