The 2016 Summer Olympics is set to kick off on Friday and online casino systems and games supplier XIN Gaming is getting in on the action with the release of its latest slot, Rio Fever.A five-reel and 50-payline game, Rio Fever is themed on the Olympic Games and offers gold medal bonuses with free spins and winnings generated when the first row is covered by the highest paying symbol.XIN Gaming declared that Rio Fever additionally features ‘all the podium-topping audio, visual and playability standards’ that players have come to expect from the developer while stating that its latest innovation has ‘plenty of precious metal up for grabs’ despite the lack of actual gold, silver and bronze medals.“Rio Fever is such a fun game and will really be a great opportunity for people that love sports and playing slots to enjoy both at the same time,” said Mathias Larsson, Chief Executive Officer for XIN Gaming.“We are so excited about the start of the Olympic Games and we hope sports fans everywhere will warm to Rio Fever.”XIN Gaming proclaimed that Rio Fever is the latest example of its ability to ‘launch new games that tie in with events and trends’. It premiered its Euro Football Champ slot two months ago to coincide with the start of the 2016 UEFA European Championship and asserted that operators and players will find Rio Fever to be ‘another winner’.“Our players just loved the game we did for the 2016 UEFA European Championship so we are now giving them more of what they want with Rio Fever,” said Larsson.“We are one of the few developers with the resources and expertise to be able to release games that link to special events on the calendar. We think that Rio Fever, with its great playability and aesthetics, will yet again prove that we are the number-one games supplier in the Asian market.”
