Push Gaming launches Dragon Hopper slot, drawing on studio's past hits

B2B games supplier Push Gaming released Dragon Hopper on 16th January 2025, a cluster pays slot set during a far-eastern lantern festival that draws on gameplay elements from previous studio titles including Fire Hopper and Retro Tapes.

The game introduces the Dragon Feature and Mystic Flare Feature, both intended to add unpredictability to each spin, alongside a new Bubble Feature that increases winning potential. It also uses the studio’s existing Push Bet mechanic, which lets players adjust how they engage with the game, and the Cluster Link system for combining paying symbols into wins.

Part of a wider 2025 slate

Dragon Hopper forms part of Push Gaming’s release schedule for the first quarter of 2025, which is also set to include the titles Mad Blast and Power Vault.

Comment from Push Gaming

Monika Lukowska, Game Producer at Push Gaming, said the title takes players on a journey through the mystical orient, mixing familiar and new features. She noted that the Dragon Symbol offers multiplier potential in the base game, while the Mystic Flare feature can appear unexpectedly on the reels. She added that the bonus round combines the Cluster Link and Dragon Feature mechanics with the new Bubble Feature to boost symbol values, and said the studio had used the combined strengths of previous releases to build Dragon Hopper.
