REEVO has gone live with Thunder Walker, a Greek mythology slot centered on Zeus. It adds another entry to the studio’s growing catalog of legend-inspired reels. The launch expands REEVO’s portfolio of gaming content and puts another mythology-inspired title into its offering.

The news value here is less about the individual game than about what it signals. REEVO is continuing to lean on one of the most heavily worked themes in online slots. The studio is packaging a familiar setting alongside a mix of mechanics rather than a single standout engine.

Thunder Walker has a 5×5 reel layout with 50 paylines and a range of themed features. With a medium volatility profile, a reported RTP of 95.72% and a maximum win of 2,358x the bet, the game sits toward the more measured end of the market. This is not one of the high-ceiling, high-variance releases that dominate headlines.

Earlier this year Merkur Group agreed to acquire the slots provider White Hat Studios. Merkur said the acquisition, which is subject to regulatory approvals, would “further accelerate” its US expansion, complementing its 2025 purchase of the Nevada-licensed supplier Gaming Arts.  

Framing the acquisition as the latest step in the company’s online expansion, Merkur supervisory board Chairman Michael Gauselmann stated: “Having made early inroads into the online space in Europe via our Blueprint acquisition in 2012, I am delighted by this latest development and am confident that White Hat Studios will be a great addition to our group.” 

In recent weeks, the gambling sector paid tribute to Paul Gauselmann after the Merkur Group founder passed away at the age of 91.

– In the wake of a consequential ruling by the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit against Kalshi, two operators are taking separate paths in an effort to overturn the decision. On 28 August, the Ninth Circuit ruled in a 3-0 decision that sports event contracts do not qualify as federally regulated swaps under the Commodity Exchange Act. Earlier this week, Kalshi filed for an en banc re-hearing with the Ninth Circuit, this time before an 11-judge review. Robinhood, meanwhile, filed a petition of certiorari with the Supreme Court in a move to effectively bypass the Ninth Circuit. It is widely believed that a circuit split between the Ninth Circuit and a separate decision by the Third Circuit will prompt the Supreme Court to take up the case.
