Nolimit City, a prominent studio under the Evolution umbrella, has entered into a strategic partnership with Sneaky Slots, a new and enigmatic player in the iGaming development space.
The agreement grants Sneaky Slots a license to utilize Nolimit City’s acclaimed suite of xMechanic gameplay tools in its upcoming game releases.
This move signals a potential new direction for Evolution as it leverages one of its most innovative brands to foster new talent.
Details about Sneaky Slots remain scarce, with the company making its first public appearance through an inaugural LinkedIn post featuring a “Coming soon” graphic.
The studio’s website is hosted by Playin, an Evolution-owned platform, listing it alongside established industry giants like Red Tiger, NetEnt, and Big Time Gaming.
However, the official Evolution site has yet to feature any information about its new brand, adding to the intrigue surrounding its launch and market strategy.
The partnership will give Sneaky Slots access to Nolimit City’s portfolio of approximately 20 in-house xMechanics, including popular features like xNudge, xWays, and xBomb.
These mechanics are known for creating dynamic and high-volatility gameplay, which has become a hallmark of Nolimit City’s edgy and often controversial slot titles, such as Mental II, Karen Maneater, and Serial.
This collaboration raises questions about Evolution’s broader strategy. While brands like NetEnt and Red Tiger are considered legacy studios with classic appeal, Nolimit City pushes creative boundaries.
If Sneaky Slots can successfully merge the powerful xMechanics with more mainstream, marketable themes, it could represent a significant innovation within the Evolution group.
This approach mirrors Evolution’s successful integration of the Megaways mechanic across multiple brands following its acquisition of Big Time Gaming. Until Sneaky Slots unveils its official roadmap, the industry will be watching closely to see how this new venture unfolds.
