New Pokie Releases in Early November 2025

After the continuation of the Super Scatter series and some new arcade games, Pragmatic Play has kicked off November with a completely new pokie: Oracle of Gold. It’s a high-volatility pokie built around a mystical adventure theme. It uses a familiar 6×6 grid and the signature Pragmatic Play cluster-pay system instead of traditional paylines, which seems like a deja vu with all the new releases from this provider, but why change what works, right?

The standout feature in Oracle of Gold is the Wild Multiplier mechanic. The Wilds don’t just substitute other symbols, but they can have multipliers of up to 10x, and they can stack together for larger wins. The maximum win in the game is 10,000x the wager, and the betting range is from $0.20 to $240 per spin. Its RTP is 96.55%, which is slightly above average.

As you probably guessed from the name, the game features a cinematic Egyptian-style theme and is a welcome addition to Pragmatic Play’s already extensive repertoire of games available to Australian players, including Sugar Rush 1000 and Gates of Olympus.

Believe it or not, we’ve got another Egypt-themed pokie this month – Sky Sentinels by Evoplay.

Evoplay is one of the largest game contributors to Australian online casinos, and it continues its run of unique pokies with Sky Sentinels, a 5×4 game that combines old-school mechanics with a modern take: you get to choose whether you want to bet on the Sun or the Moon.

It’s a fun mechanic that debuts with Sky Sentinels, so depending on which option you choose, the paylines are formed from left to right or vice versa. The Sun pays left to right, while the Moon pays right to left.

It’s a small feature that makes the pokie more interesting, but it also adds a bit of strategy in the game. Namely, if you get stacked multipliers, it doesn’t matter whether the wins are formed from left to right or the other way around.

The visuals are what we expect from Evoplay: nothing truly groundbreaking, but all the symbols and animations are pleasant to look at, and it’s more about the gameplay than the graphic effects.

The RTP is 96.02%, and the maximum win is 100x, which puts Sky Sentinels in the low volatility category. It’s refreshing to see a pokie that rewards a bit of player decision-making instead of leaving everything to pure chance.

Push Gaming has gone the opposite way this week, releasing something calm and zen with Happy Bamboo. It’s a follow-up to the studio’s earlier hit Big Bamboo, but on a smaller 3×3 grid with just five paylines. So, at first glance, it seems like a classic pokie without many special features.

Well, don’t let that simplicity fool you – Happy Bamboo actually has several bonus features and special symbols. During the base game, the Golden Mystery Bamboo symbol can reveal coin symbols, Collector symbols, Multiplier symbols, and Mystery Jackpot symbols.

Then, there’s a Hold & Respin feature. The Golden Coins are collected in the Panda Pot, and whenever a Golden Coin is added to the pot, there’s a chance to trigger the Hold & Respin feature, which comes with a multiplier from 2x to 10x, and the bonus game runs until there are no more Mystery Bamboo symbols on the reels. When the sequence ends, the total win is multiplied by the multiplier chosen at the start.

The betting range is $0.10 to $100 per spin, with a medium volatility setting. The RTP is 96.31%, and the maximum possible win is 6,060x the wager, which is quite surprising for a 3×3 pokie.
