Entain’s in-house studio has pulled the curtain back on Pig Banker Bacon Train, the newest chapter in its Pig Banker slot series. Building on the original’s runaway success, the game brings a new train-themed bonus system designed to engage both US and global players. The launch reinforces Entain’s growing focus on in-house innovation, after players spun its proprietary games more than six billion times in the past year.

Some key stats about Entain’s growing in-house game successes

  • Across all Entain markets, players have spun the reels on in-house games more than 6 billion times in the last 12 months
  • The in-house studios have produced 8 of the top 20 slot titles launched by Entain.
  • In the UK, new in-house titles generate six times the revenue of the average third-party slot.
  • In the Brazil market, in-house studios are responsible for 5 of the top 20 new launches this year by active players.

Pig Banker – Entain’s most successful in-house title to date

  • Pig Banker Bacon Train follows the 2023 hit Pig Banker, Entain’s most successful in-house title to date. The original game topped rankings in the UK, Brazil, and Canada and has since evolved into a six-strong franchise of pig-themed titles.

  • The new slot introduces a three-pot feature system – Blue, Red, and Green – each tied to unique bonus rounds, including jackpots, multipliers, and random cash drops. The design builds on Pig Banker’s simple math profile while adding greater depth and replayability.

  • “Bacon Train is what happens when creativity meets player insight,” said Robert Parker, Head of Studio at Entain. “We’ve taken the magic of Pig Banker and added the mechanics players love.” His comments highlight the studio’s data-led design process.

  • With strong results in markets like Brazil – where five of the top 20 new slot titles this year are in-house – Entain sees the Pig Banker Bacon Train launch as key to its expansion strategy, particularly across regulated US states.
