Under the terms of the deal, Entain’s UK retail arm will have exclusive bookmaker rights to Big Bass Bonanza, Big Bass Splash, Big Bass Hold & Spinner, and additional titles from the iconic Big Bass series to over 2,700 Ladbrokes and Coral shops nationwide.
The Big Bass series, renowned for its vibrant visuals, dynamic gameplay, and loyal following, is already a huge hit online for Entain, with all titles consistently ranking in the top 20 games for Ladbrokes and Coral. Among them, Big Bass Splash has shown exceptional staying power since its launch in 2022 as Entain’s top-performing online slot this year in the UK.
This is the first time the series will be available to a major betting and gaming operator for its retail network. The move reflects Entain’s ongoing commitment to omnichannel innovation and delivering best-in-class content across its retail and digital estate.
“We’re proud to bring the iconic Big Bass series from Pragmatic Play to our high street customers,”
said Adam Goodall, Head of UK Slots and Table Games at Entain.
“These games have earned a long-standing and loyal following online, and now, we’re pleased to offer these great games in person on our cutting-edge in-shop gaming machines.”
The launch follows a growing demand for omnichannel content experiences among UK players, as well as Entain’s strategy of deepening partnerships with tier-one suppliers to deliver innovative, localised entertainment.
“We’re delighted to further strengthen our relationship with Entain and bring our Big Bass titles to Ladbrokes and Coral shops throughout the UK,”
said Irina Cornides, Chief Operating Officer at Pragmatic Play.
“This retail rollout demonstrates the enduring appeal of the Big Bass brand and our ability to deliver engaging experiences across channels.”
The Big Bass series, which debuted in 2020, has become one of the most recognisable brands in the slots market, with millions of players worldwide. Its retail debut will be supported by in-shop promotions and dedicated marketing campaigns across both Ladbrokes and Coral.
