Yggdrasil and Bang Bang Games unite for debut hit Ancient Eclipse

6th April 2021 - Yggdrasil, the leading worldwide publisher of online gambling content, has launched Bang Bang Games’ first YG Masters title, Ancient Eclipse, utilising Yggdrasil’s innovative GATI technology.

Harkening back to time immemorium, the Eclipse has been a time of power and mystery, and in this title, players harness this mystic time to capture huge wins from an ancient civilisation.

The 5x4 title sees players aim to land both elements of the Eclipse to trigger huge wins. Moon symbols that land on the reels will transform into special Golden Sun Frames, which will remain sticky on the reels until an Eclipse is triggered.

If a Moon symbol then lands in a Sun Frame, an Eclipse is triggered, causing all Sun Frames to become Wilds. The Eclipse can be retriggered, with each additional Eclipse having an increasing multiplier of 1x, for huge wins. 

The Sticky Suns Free Spins mode is triggered if three Warriors land on the reels. During this mode, all Sun Frames remain sticky throughout, even after an Eclipse. Every Moon that lands not only adds a new Sun Frame, but also an extra Free Spin, for giant win potential. 

Ancient Eclipse is Bang Bang Games’ debut YG Masters title, after the studio joined the program in July 2020. The game has been deployed using Yggdrasil’s innovative GATI technology. Utilised by all YG Masters partners, this technology allows developers to employ the preconfigured, regulation-ready, standardised development toolkit to produce consistently cutting-edge content.

Rapid circulation across Yggdrasil’s distribution network enables all YG Masters partners to scale and fast-track their global growth strategies. 

Stuart McCarthy, head of partner programs at Yggdrasil, said: “Our YG Masters program continues to drive innovative content to market and this is evident in Bang Bang Games’ landmark inaugural title, Ancient Eclipse.

“GATI has proven to be an enabler for our partner studios and we can’t wait to see what more comes from them.”

Frank McPolin, managing director at Bang Bang Games, said: “We’re delighted to launch our first game as a YG Masters partner, Ancient Eclipse. With a thrilling theme, lucrative Free Spins mode and an artfully crafted environment, we couldn’t be happier and look forward to it being rolled out across Yggdrasil’s partner network, reaching players all over the globe.”
