About Fortune Factory Studios
Not every studio can point to a single invention that turned them from a quiet name in an exclusive network into an award-winning franchise builder. Fortune Factory Studios can. And that invention is Gold Blitz.
Founded in 2018 on the Isle of Man as a subsidiary of MahiGaming, Fortune Factory Studios entered the market as one of the first independent studios to partner exclusively with Microgaming, later absorbed into Games Global. The early years were modest. Romanov Riches, Tiki Mania, Holly Jolly Penguins, and Showdown Saloon were competent, varied releases with solid mechanics and a clear product-with-personality philosophy, but none of them particularly moved the needle. Then, in June 2022, Mask of Amun arrived, quietly debuting a collect-and-cash mechanic that would form the DNA of everything the studio became known for.
By December 2022, that mechanic had been refined and rebranded as Gold Blitz. The game runs on a 6×4 grid with up to 4,096 ways to win. Golden cash symbols land across the first five reels, accumulating values that are instantly paid out when a Blitz Collect symbol stops on reel one or six. Free spins and the Cash Blitz bonus round layer on top, and three fixed jackpots from Mini to Mega sit above the action. The RTP sits around 96% with a 5,000x maximum win. It sounds straightforward on paper. In practice, the rhythm of watching cash symbols stack and collecting their combined value creates a session feel that players responded to immediately and consistently.
The franchise that followed is the real story. Gold Blitz Extreme supercharged the formula with elevated volatility and bigger jackpot potential. Gold Blitz Ultimate followed with 6,400 betways and a tighter max win of 2,500x tailored for different player segments. Gold Blitz King Millions and Gold Blitz Fortunes added further variants. Then came the branded tier. UFC Gold Blitz Extreme, launched in July 2024, built the mechanic around the Octagon and featured Conor McGregor, Jon Jones, Amanda Nunes, and Zhang Weili as symbols, with a 5,500x maximum win, a four-tier jackpot triggered randomly on coin-landing base game spins, and a Cash Rewards Bonus Multiplier climbing to 5x through UFC glove scatter accumulation. It won Best Branded Slot at the 2024 SlotsWise Gaming Awards. WWE Bonus Rumble: Gold Blitz followed in August 2024, placing The Undertaker, Stone Cold Steve Austin, John Cena, and Booker T on the reels for the first of a three-game WWE licensing agreement.
That is not all the studio has built. Wolf Blaze Megaways brought Megaways volatility to a North American wildlife theme. Blazing Bison Gold Blitz applied the franchise mechanic to a buffalo stampede setting. The Jurassic World: Raptor Riches IP slot used photorealistic dinosaur imagery and a multi-layered bonus structure. The Power Combo mechanic, licensed through Games Global, has more recently opened up a new series direction with titles like 333 Fortunes Ahoy Power Combo delivering a 12,500x maximum win at high volatility.
At a Game Developer Awards in 2024, Fortune Factory Studios won Game Studio of the Year in the Small category and took silver for Game Mechanic of the Year for the Gold Blitz mechanic itself. All games are certified by iTech Labs, GLI, and eCOGRA, licensed under the Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission, UKGC, and MGA, and distributed exclusively through Games Global.
“Fortune Factory are a studio that genuinely surprised me. The early games were decent but Gold Blitz changed everything. The collect mechanic just works and the UFC and WWE branded versions took it somewhere completely different. Winning Game Studio of the Year in 2024 was thoroughly deserved. A studio that had one great idea and ran with it brilliantly.” Mark, Content Editor
“Gold Blitz is one of those games I keep coming back to. The cash collecting feels different to a standard Hold and Win and the UFC version is just an event in itself. Really enjoyed watching this studio grow. The franchise has legs and the newer Power Combo titles show they are not just a one-trick studio either.” Scotty T, Streamer
FAQs about Fortune Factory Studios
-
What is the Gold Blitz mechanic and why did it become so popular?
Gold Blitz runs on a collect-and-cash system where golden symbols land across the reels and accumulate combined values that are paid out instantly when a Blitz Collect symbol arrives on the first or sixth reel. Rather than a traditional Hold and Win respin where you fill a grid and hope, Gold Blitz pays collected values immediately on each collect trigger, creating a constant rhythm of small-to-large payouts that feels meaningfully different from the format it was inspired by. The mechanic launched quietly in Mask of Amun in June 2022 before the Gold Blitz brand formalised it in December of the same year. -
How many Gold Blitz titles are there now?
The franchise has expanded significantly since the original. Gold Blitz, Gold Blitz Extreme, Gold Blitz Ultimate, Gold Blitz King Millions, Gold Blitz Fortunes, Blazing Bison Gold Blitz, UFC Gold Blitz Extreme, and WWE Bonus Rumble Gold Blitz all use the mechanic in varying configurations. Games Global has also licensed the Gold Blitz brand to other exclusive studio partners, making it one of the platform’s defining internal franchises. -
What is the UFC Gold Blitz Extreme slot about and how does it work?
Launched in July 2024, the game features Conor McGregor, Jon Jones, Amanda Nunes, and Zhang Weili on the reels inside a virtual Octagon. It uses the Gold Blitz Cash Collect mechanic as its base, with UFC glove bonus symbols building a Cash Rewards Bonus Multiplier up to 5x across the free spins and Cash Blitz bonus rounds. A four-tier jackpot from Mini to Mega can trigger randomly on any spin where a coin symbol lands, and the maximum win sits at 5,500x. It was the first ever UFC-branded slot game. -
Does Fortune Factory Studios make anything other than Gold Blitz titles?
Yes. The catalogue includes Wolf Blaze Megaways, Jurassic World Raptor Riches, Blazing Bison Gold Blitz, Mask of Amun, and Power Combo series entries like 333 Fortunes Ahoy Power Combo, which reaches a 12,500x maximum win. The studio has demonstrated range across Megaways, Power Combo, and licensed IP formats alongside the Gold Blitz franchise. -
Where are Fortune Factory Studios games available and who regulates them?
All titles are distributed exclusively through Games Global and are licensed under the Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission with additional approval from the UKGC and MGA. Games are certified by iTech Labs, Gaming Laboratories International, and eCOGRA.
