5. Munchy Milo by Hacksaw Gaming

Release Date: April 9, 2026

There are two faces to Hacksaw Gaming: the gritty, edgier side, and their bright, feel-good slots filled with charm and character. Munchy Milo very much falls into the latter category, with a wide-eyed, bushy-tailed space monkey and a distinct old-school Disney rubber-hose feel.

Final Thoughts

The forecast for April is looking promising, but like the weather (especially in the UK!), conditions can always change. 

Some of these releases, based on our early looks and demo play, are set to bring the heat, but some, sadly, may fizzle out – and a few underdogs could also surprise us entirely. 

No matter what happens, we’ll be watching the scene closely to see how these games play out.
