Pragmatic Play may have pulled out of the US sweepstakes casino market last year, but its games are slowly reappearing under different provider names.
New Malta-based B2B supplier Liberty Spins is the latest example, and it’s releasing what appear to be four titles associated with Pragmatic Play (and its partner studio Wild Streak Gaming):
- Fire Stampede: Connect & Collect
- Gold Party
- Congo Jewels (likely linked to Congo Cash)
- Queenie
These are all part of the ‘LS Premium’ range, with more apparently coming soon.
Jackpota recently got in touch to let us know it’s stocking Fire Stampede: Connect & Collect in its lobby, as is Modo. In fact, this title is already topping Modo’s most popular games at present, showing the instant draw of these familiar titles.
It’s likely we’ll see the other listed slots rolled out soon, and we wouldn’t be surprised if more sweeps casinos get in on the action either, allowing players to play these games once more in the US.
Liberty Spins’ Fire Stampede: Connect & Collect
In fact, it’s worth pointing out that Fire Stampede was developed by Wild Streak Gaming and distributed by Pragmatic Play, beginning in 2023. It’s not Pragmatic’s biggest-ever title, but it is still a very popular one.
The version under Liberty Spins that you can play at Jackpota and Modo does appear to look, sound, and play almost identically to the original. However, there are small differences in the UI and rules, as well as in the sound effects used to raise or lower your bet.
It’s also worth bearing in mind that the RTP is 94.01% at both sweeps casinos, whereas the original was available in 96.00%, 95.00%, and 94.00% versions.
But the core all ways pays gameplay on the 6×5 grid remains, with the possibility of scoring lines of Connect & Collect symbols from left to right to reach the Special Positions on reels 3 and 6 and unlock random rewards.
Pragmatic Games Are Already Available Through Different Routes
Actually, Liberty Spins isn’t the only alternative provider name appearing in connection with Pragmatic-style games; there are several different ways sweeps players can find slot titles associated with this popular supplier:
- Jackpota and Modo: Fire Stampede appears under Liberty Spins.
- Coinz.us, SlotHub, and VegasBuilder: Pragmatic-style games have been identified under the SlotOmatic provider name, including Realm of Zeus (Gates of Olympus), Fishing Quest (Big Bass series), and Joker Gems (Joker’s Jewels).
- ReBet: Actual Pragmatic Play games have seemingly been available recently.
We’ve also previously covered shady sites like SpinBison and Jackpot Mesa, where games appear to imitate Pragmatic titles.
It’s quite difficult to know which, if any, of these providers are working with Pragmatic’s blessing. Liberty Spins is an interesting candidate, particularly given the presence of its games on established platforms like Jackpota and Modo, but we still can’t find any concrete proof that these games are fully licensed.
In terms of technical details, we examined Fire Stampede on Modo and found that its game files are delivered through Liberty Spins-branded infrastructure. The resources use the domain libertyspins-production.io, and the game’s internal identifier is LSP_FIS, with a build version of 2026-P10.03.
The game’s information file also records a build timestamp of October 27, 2026, showing that the version we played is a very recent build.
All this establishes that the version running on Modo is being delivered through Liberty Spins’ own production infrastructure, but it doesn’t establish who created the underlying game or who owns its intellectual property.
Why Did Pragmatic Play Pull Out of the Sweepstakes Market?
The backdrop to these developments is Pragmatic Play’s decision to withdraw from the US sweepstakes casino market in September of last year.
The decision came amid mounting regulatory pressure on the sweeps industry. Just days earlier, the Los Angeles City Attorney’s office had filed a civil enforcement action against Stake.us and several gaming suppliers, namely Pragmatic Play, Evolution, and Hacksaw Gaming.
Around the same time, there was also considerable buzz around California’s anti-sweeps bill, AB831, which would subsequently become law in October 2025.
Pragmatic initially pulled out of California before announcing a wider withdrawal from the US sweepstakes market.
A spokesperson said at the time:
“Pragmatic Play has chosen to discontinue licensing its games to sweepstake operators in US States where restrictions were not already in place, in light of regulatory developments and evolving legislation.
We remain committed to the highest standards of compliance and will continue to engage transparently with regulators.”
This left a massive hole in many social casino lobbies, as Pragmatic had been seen as the most popular provider in the sweeps sector, with major series like Sugar Rush, Gates of Olympus, and the Big Bass series.
Conclusion
Therefore, the arrival of Liberty Spins titles on Jackpota and Modo is an interesting development in a space still adjusting to a lack of Pragmatic Play games.
And we’re still unsure exactly just how much cooperation has come from Pragmatic or Wild Streak Gaming, but perhaps this will come to light in due course.
Until these kinds of questions are answered, Liberty Spins is worth watching, particularly if its catalog begins appearing at more sweepstakes casinos. Its growth could become a boon for the whole market, but any official links with the original games remain unconfirmed for now.
