4 sites carrying this game, every one of them a commercial partnership we may earn a commission from. It never changes the specs, the score or the order. None of them states a Gambling Commission licence, so check the licence in the operator's own footer, and whether GAMSTOP covers it, before you deposit. 18+ only. BeGambleAware.org
What works
- Pragmatic Play holds a UK Gambling Commission licence and has built a catalogue of around 904 games since 2015, giving it a reliable track record for regulated UK releases.
- The release date of 22 October 2026 is confirmed, giving a firm window to plan around.
- Across 115 catalogue titles that publish an RTP, the studio's median sits at 96.5%; that is a useful reference while Rat Royale's own figure remains unpublished.
- The studio covers a wide range of themes and mechanics, giving it a proven track record across many different play styles.
What does not
- RTP, volatility, max win, grid layout, paylines, mechanic, theme, features and stake range are all unpublished for Rat Royale; there is no spec to evaluate yet.
- Rat Royale is not confirmed to match the studio's catalogue median RTP of 96.5% or any other typical figure.
- Pragmatic Play's rated titles run very high volatility in the vast majority of cases, but whether Rat Royale follows that lean is not confirmed.
- With no mechanic or feature information on record, it is not possible to judge how this game plays until the studio publishes full details.
01
What Rat Royale is and when it lands
Rat Royale is a newly announced slot from Pragmatic Play, a studio founded in Gibraltar in 2015. The game is scheduled to reach UK-licensed casinos on 22 October 2026. Pragmatic Play holds a UK Gambling Commission licence, so the game will be available through regulated operators once it goes live.
The studio has not published any of this game's own specs. RTP, volatility, max win, grid layout, paylines, mechanic, theme, features and stake range are all not on record at this stage. Each will be added here once Pragmatic Play makes them available.
Until those details arrive, coverage here is grounded in what is confirmed: the game's name, its studio, the release date, and Pragmatic Play's established catalogue record. That gives a real and honest basis for what to expect from a release by this studio, without inventing anything about Rat Royale itself.
Rat Royale reaches UK-licensed casinos on 22 October 2026; none of its own specs are confirmed yet.

Rat Royale is scheduled to reach UK-licensed casinos on 22 October 2026. That is the only timing detail the studio has confirmed. This game's own specs (including RTP, volatility, max win, mechanic and features) have not been published yet; they will be added here once the studio releases them.

How we build this pageOUR METHOD
- The desk plays what there is to play, with its own money. A released slot is played for real with real money, and the demo above is the supplier's real GB build, loaded straight from their server, so what the desk opens is what launches. Either way, what it sees on screen is checked against the RTP, max win, volatility and features the studio has published. A game that is not out yet, with no demo to open, cannot be played, and its page says so.
- The article is then written up from those verified facts by our own tooling, which is what keeps every release on the site current and consistent. Specs come from the studio's own release sheet and the game's paytable, never from a sister title or a guess, and a number nobody has published is left blank rather than filled in.
- Every draft is then checked automatically, against the facts on file and for structure and language, and anything that does not pass is held back rather than published. We do not claim a person reads every article end to end. It publishes under the byline above, and the editor named there owns its accuracy and any corrections. We change the date when the facts change, not to look fresh.
- Spotted something out of date? Every page shows the day we last checked it. Tell us and we will fix it and log the change.

NextSlots is an editorial site. We do not take bets, hold funds or operate games. Every demo on this site is play-money only and pays nothing back: the results you see in a demo will not repeat with real stakes. Gambling with real money should be treated as paid entertainment, never as income.
If it has stopped being fun, stop. Free, confidential help is available in the UK 24 hours a day, and self-exclusion across every site licensed in Great Britain takes about five minutes to set up through GAMSTOP. GAMSTOP only reaches sites holding a Gambling Commission licence, so it will not block an operator licensed elsewhere.
