Nolimit City resurfaces in the apocalyptic world of xWays Hoarder 2
Karen’s back, and she’s as greedy as ever. Nolimit City is diving headfirst into the post-apocalyptic chaos once again with xWays Hoarder 2—a sequel to the wildly popular xWays Hoarder xSplit. This game follows in the footsteps of sequels like San Quentin 2, Punk Rocker 2, and Fire in the Hole 2, proving once more that the end of the world is just the beginning when it comes to our games.
When survival is the name of the game, desperation leads to chaos. Betrayal, looting, and backstabbing are all fair play in this wasteland—but it’s all worth it for that sweet, sweet loot.
The base game is littered with signature Nolimit City xMechanics such as xBet®, xWays®, xSplit® and xSplit® Nudge. xWays® can grow from 4x – 12x the value of the symbol offering some pretty sweet loot. xSplit® symbols splits all symbols to the left of the including xWays® symbols doubling the multiplier. xSplit Nudge is another valuable feature that lands as a stacked symbol that will nudge and split all symbols to the left. xBet® makes it 4 times more likely to trigger free spins, 1 Guaranteed xSplit® Nudge xBet® guarantees a minimum of 1 xSplit® Nudge and Loot Respin xBet® guarantees triggering Loot Respins.
Loot Respins can land along with any other special feature on the reels. During Loot Respins, the Loot symbol expands on the first reel and locks the reel, whilst any special symbol retriggers and becomes sticky for the next spin. When no additional special symbol lands, the 1st reel unlocks and one final respin is awarded. A Loot symbol may land again and will retrigger Loot Respin!
Landing 3, 4 or 5 Scatter Symbols will trigger 7, 10 or 13 Raid Spins respectively. During Raid Spins xSplit®, xWays® and xSplit® Nudges remain sticky. A Super Scatter will convert itself and the symbol below it to a xSplit® symbol. For every 3 special features selected a new Radiation level is reached where each level upgrade awards 1 addition spin.
- Radiation Level 1 – 3 xSplit®/xWays®/xSplit® Nudge collected: The lowest paying character symbol and object symbol are removed from the reels.
- Radiation Level 2 – 6 xSplit®/xWays®/xSplit® Nudge collected: The second lowest paying character symbol and object symbol are removed from the reels.
- Radiation Level 3 – 9 xSplit®/xWays®/xSplit® Nudge collected: The third lowest paying character symbol and object symbol are removed from the reels.
- Radiation Level 4 – 12 xSplit®/xWays®/xSplit® Nudge collected: The fourth lowest paying character symbol and object symbol are removed from the reels.
Landing 3,4 or 5 Scatter symbols where 1 of them is a Special Scatter symbol will trigger 7,10 or 13 Plunder Spins. The only difference between Raid Spins and Plunder Spins is that the Super Scatter Symbol and the positions below it become a Sticky xSplit for the duration of the spins. Binge Spins are awarded when Raid Spins or Plunder Spins progresses to Radiation Level 4 where only the 2 highest paying Character symbols and highest paying object symbol are awarded.
If you want to survive you need to trust no one but yourself and if you get out alive a maximum payout of 25,920x the base bet is awarded. xWays Hoarder 2 is rated as “Extremely Volatile” delivering the thrilling high-stakes gameplay that Nolimit City fans know and love.
Per Lindheimer, Head of Product at Nolimit City, said: “Ah yes, the sweet smell of the wasteland is back, oh no wait that’s Karen, the Queen of Shit! This is yet another sequel we’ve been excited to release for a while! The original was stand out hit for us, so we knew we had to respect its legacy. We’ve made a few tweaks and added a couple of new features that really make this game what it is and we hope players will enjoy it!“
‘xWays Hoarder 2’ will be available to all Nolimit City partners on January 14th, 2025.

Atlaslive, a premier iGaming platform provider, today released a comprehensive analysis of the European gambling market transformation, revealing that the industry’s €123.4 billion revenue base is undergoing unprecedented digital evolution. The analysis, based on latest market intelligence from European Gaming & Betting Association in partnership with H2 Gambling Capital, identifies mobile gaming as the dominant force reshaping player engagement across the continent.
Mobile Revolution Drives Market Transformation
Atlaslive’s analysis reveals that mobile devices now generate 58% of Europe’s online gambling revenue in 2024, with projections indicating this figure will surge to 67% by 2029. This mobile-first transformation represents a fundamental shift in how operators must approach platform development and player acquisition strategies.
“The data unequivocally demonstrates that the future of European gambling is mobile-first,” said Anastasiia Poltavets, CMO at Atlaslive. “Operators who fail to prioritize mobile optimization and user experience will find themselves increasingly marginalized in a market where player expectations have fundamentally evolved.”
Online Gambling Accelerates Toward 45% Market Share
The analysis identifies online gambling as the clear growth engine of the European market, with digital channels expected to command 45% of total gambling revenue by 2029, up from 39% in 2024. This €66.8 billion online market projection represents a 6.9% compound annual growth rate, significantly outpacing the 1.8% growth expected in land-based gambling.
Key growth drivers identified by Atlaslive include:
- Casino games leading digital adoption: €21.5 billion in 2024, growing to €30.8 billion by 2029
- Sports betting momentum: €13.7 billion online revenue with 6.9% annual growth trajectory
- Lottery digital transformation: Strongest growth potential at 7.7% annually, reaching €10.4 billion by 2029
Geographic Disparities Signal Untapped Opportunities
Country-by-country analysis reveals significant market maturity variations across Europe, presenting strategic opportunities for technology providers and operators.
Digital Leaders:
- Sweden: 68.3% online share
- Finland and Denmark: Both at 68.1% online share
- Strong mobile adoption and regulatory frameworks driving digital-first engagement
Growth Markets:
- Italy: Europe’s largest market at €21.0 billion with only 21.7% online penetration
- Germany: €14.4 billion market with 22.6% online share indicating substantial digital expansion potential
- France: €14.0 billion market with significant room for online growth
Strategic Implications for Industry Stakeholders
The Atlaslive analysis identifies several critical success factors for market participants:
For Operators:
- Mobile-native platform architecture becomes non-negotiable
- Omnichannel integration essential for capturing cross-platform player value
- Geographic expansion strategies should prioritize markets with low online penetration
For Technology Providers:
- Platform scalability must accommodate sustained high-growth environments
- Cross-jurisdictional compliance capabilities increasingly valuable
- Mobile-first development methodologies essential for competitive positioning
Market Resilience Demonstrates Industry Maturity
Despite digital transformation, analysis confirms the continued relevance of land-based gambling, which maintains €75.5 billion in 2024 revenue and projects steady 1.8% annual growth. This dual-track evolution demonstrates industry maturity and the enduring appeal of gambling experiences.
“The European gambling market is demonstrating remarkable sophistication in its evolution,” added Anastasiia Poltavets. “Rather than simple digital displacement, we’re witnessing the emergence of a truly integrated ecosystem where online and land-based channels complement and enhance each other.”
