Playtech’s Fire Blaze™ Suite – The International Favorite Hits Big in the US

Sponsored Content by Playtech

With over 20 years of experience in iGaming, technology giant Playtech is also one of the biggest developers of content in the industry. Well known for its branded content partnerships with major film and TV studios such as MGM and AMC, Playtech has also successfully created a string of its own brands, including the international player favorite, the Fire Blaze™ Jackpots suite.

Since launching in 2019, Fire Blaze™ has become one of the most popular slot games brands across major markets – and now the suite is catching fire with US players too, especially in New Jersey, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. The core Fire Blaze™ concept combines classically appealing themes, such as ancient culture and the supernatural, with feature-rich gameplay, backed by an engaging central mechanic – Hold and Respin.

The magic behind Fire Blaze™

In the typical Fire Blaze™ format, landing six or more bonus symbols in the main game triggers the Hold and Respin round. In this round, all initial prizes are held, with players having three more respins to win further prizes, including one of four in-game jackpots – the Minor, Mini, Major and Grand.

In addition to Hold and Respin round, each new release has its own distinct special feature, giving players a compelling reason to try every game. The success of this format is part of Playtech’s wider “power suite” strategy, built around multi-game suites with a distinctive look and feel, encouraging players to engage with and consistently return to a brand.

As more and more games are licensed for US markets, fans of the suite can expect much more to come.

Discover three additional ways to play Fire Blaze™

Mega Fire Blaze™

The Hold and Respin feature gets a boost with up to six extra unlockable rows, creating a mega grid.

Fire Blaze™ Golden

Hold and Respin prizes not only lock in the feature round, but also repay on each winning spin – including Major, Mini and Minor Jackpot prizes.

Fire Blaze™ Quattro

The main game features four 3×3 reel groups, each with 27 ways to win. Plus, play for big wins in two special Hold and Respin rounds.

Building player loyalty and creating cross-sell opportunities

Power suites offer excellent promotional and engagement potential, from targeting fans of a suite with in-game messaging advertising new releases or offering Free Spins, to themed Leaderboards with additional prizes, encouraging players to try all games in a suite. Additionally, power suites can create important cross-sell opportunities, with Mega Fire Blaze™ Roulette already a hit with Live Dealer players. The award-winning Age of the Gods™ suite has spawned its own highly successful Poker and Bingo variants, while the Blitz™ Jackpots suite has inspired the popular Buffalo Blitz™ Live Slots game. The Cash Collect™ series is the first to feature external licensed brands, potentially doubling the audience for these games.
