Online operator Hard Rock Bet Casino has released 9 Nekos of Fortune, a new exclusive slot from game developer Games Global.

It’s the latest release from Games Global and its studio partner Gameburger Studios. Hard Rock Bet Casino and Global Games have previously collaborated on titles such as Hard Rock Splash ‘n Spin Link&Win.

According to Hard Rock Bet, 9 Nekos of Fortune draws on Japanese themes. Its design is based on the maneki-neko, the ‘beckoning cat’, which is often associated with luck and prosperity.

The slot includes Games Global’s Epic Strike mechanic, which offers prizes for landing three to nine cat symbols, with payouts climbing up to 2,000 times the bet. A bonus round is triggered by scatter symbols, unlocking 10 to 30 free spins with additional multipliers.

Executives from both companies framed the release as part of a broader strategy to grow in New Jersey’s competitive icasino sector.

Hard Rock has also been expanding its sports betting offerings, after announcing a collaboration with BetVision, allowing Hard Rock users to watch and bet simultaneously.
