It should be added from the start that The Business of iGaming is still a relatively new site. Therefore, it cannot yet compete with the larger review platforms when it comes to overall traffic or long-term performance data for casino games. Because of this, the trending slots listed below tend to overrepresent new and upcoming releases, which is interesting in itself – it reveals what fresh launches are drawing the most attention among readers and searchers this month.
Methodology
To compile this ranking, we combined two key data sources:
- Internal data from our Slots Launch plugin, measuring views and user interest.
- External search data from Google Search Console and Analytics, tracking the search volume for each title.
By averaging both indicators, we get a strong sense of which slots are currently trending – not only among our readers but also across the wider iGaming search landscape.

Most Popular Providers – October 2025
While the trending slot list highlights new and eye-catching releases, the most popular game providers show where consistent player interest lies.
These developers continue to dominate both in search visibility and game launches – shaping much of what players engage with across online casinos today.
1. Pragmatic Play
Pragmatic Play remains the clear leader this month, with multiple titles, including Wild Wild Riches Returns and Starlight Princess Super Scatter, capturing high view counts and player searches.
Their formula of high volatility slots, strong branding, and frequent releases keeps them constantly in the spotlight. Pragmatic’s ability to mix classic gameplay structures with bold visual design has made them a fixture at virtually every major casino.
2. Hacksaw Gaming
Known for innovation and unpredictability, Hacksaw Gaming continues to dominate trending charts thanks to their sharp mechanics and distinctive art direction.
Spear of Athena and Le Santa show the studio’s range, from mythology to seasonal reskins, both supported by their strong reputation for high-potential wins and quick bonus action. Hacksaw’s games also tend to trend quickly after release due to strong streamer engagement and community-driven hype.
3. BGaming
BGaming’s Face Off debut has put the studio firmly among the most-searched providers this month. Combining original mechanics with pop-culture inspiration, BGaming’s catalog appeals to a wide demographic of casual and experienced players alike.
The studio’s transparent RTP policies and regular collaborations with casino brands have also strengthened their position in the iGaming ecosystem.
4. Nolimit City
No one brings edge and attitude to slot design quite like Nolimit City. With Breakout ranking in this month’s trending list, the studio continues to build on its reputation for boundary-pushing mechanics and provocative storytelling.
Nolimit’s player base is fiercely loyal, often seeking out their latest titles regardless of theme, making them one of the few developers that can drive organic hype with each release.
5. ELK Studios
Sweden’s ELK Studios continues to impress with titles like Giraffalot, blending quirky design with high-end mathematics. ELK’s games often combine cinematic presentation with layered bonus features, and their X-iter™ mechanics have become a defining feature of their portfolio.
As more players discover ELK’s balance between creativity and solid return potential, their recognition continues to climb.
Final Thoughts
Even though The Business of iGaming is still in its early stages, these monthly trend snapshots are already providing valuable insights into what excites players today. October 2025 clearly favors studios that release frequently, experiment with new themes, and maintain strong visibility in search and streaming channels.
As the site grows, future rankings will combine larger data sets – including player retention, casino integrations, and gameplay performance – to give a more complete picture of what truly defines a “trending slot” in the modern iGaming world.
