Leading emerging-markets aggregator partners with innovative game studio for a portfolio offering locally adapted games and unique in-game features
11th November 2026 – QTech, the leading game aggregator for all emerging markets, has partnered with Black Lagoon, an innovative game studio already well established in these markets. The partnership will bring locally adopted games to QTech’s operator network.
The focus goes beyond individual games to building entire game categories. The games combine popular, proven features with the studio’s own innovations, including Monster Mega Hit®, Insta Pay feature, Pay Progressive Multiplier and Red Dragon feature. The Monster Mega Hit® game family features the studio’s flagship instant-win mechanic.
The studio is also introducing Magic Drops, a new seasonal in-game feature. Mystery prizes can randomly drop on non-winning spins, adding more excitement to the game. Instead of creating new games, the studio gives its existing titles a fresh seasonal look, with themed visuals and rewards. Following the Halloween edition, Christmas Magic Drops will launch in mid-November.
Monster Mega Hit® – Big wins even from smallest bets
Monster Mega Hit® is Black Lagoon’s flagship in-game, no-contribution instant-win mechanic. It gives players the chance to win significant prizes, even with the smallest bets. Every bet qualifies for the largest prize, with no contribution to a separate prize pool.
Monster Mega Hit® has already become popular in emerging markets, where players enjoy chasing big wins with micro-stakes. What started as a single game feature has grown into an entire game family. Along the way, it has created extraordinary player stories and record-breaking wins, including an incredible 1,250,000× multiplier.
For operators, Monster Mega Hit® offers full control over the largest payout amount and currency. The mechanic is built directly into the game’s mathematics. It requires no separate cash reserves or special infrastructure and pays out like a regular game win.
Philip Doftvik, QTech’s CEO, said: “Like us, Black Lagoon understand that remaining local is pivotal to success. In high-growth regions (like Africa), content diversity matters enormously because player demand evolves very quickly — and it’s also shaped by local realities such as mobile usage, data costs, device types, and payment preferences.
“Their portfolio provides a welcome breath of fresh air in the sector, and these games are very well suited for the emerging markets. Locally adapted content is regularly requested from our clients, hence we’re delighted to release Black Lagoon’s content to our partners here.”
Jan Ridenfeldt, CCO & Co-Founder at Black Lagoon, added: “We’re thrilled to join forces with QTech. This partnership means even more players in our core territories will have access to our engaging games.
“Black Lagoon doesn’t just create individual games. We build entire game families, where players can move between different titles, enjoy familiar gameplay and discover new features. This approach keeps the experience fresh and engaging, giving players more reasons to return. We also offer a high level of customisation, including localised game mechanics, universal bet sizes, flexible RTP and other technical innovations. These features help us adapt our games to different markets and player needs.”
