About El Koala
The release carries the studio’s familiar configuration approach. Duck Hunters 2 launches with a 96.00% RTP configuration as its highest available setting, alongside alternative versions with RTP levels of 94.05% and 92.01%. The game carries an extreme volatility rating and allows bets ranging from €0.20 to €100 per spin.
The reason Duck Hunters 2 is worth flagging as news is what its format says about where the wider market has landed. Position-multiplier math, in which individual grid cells accumulate multipliers across cascading wins, has become one of the most widely adopted mechanical families in modern slot design.
Nolimit City’s version keeps that model recognizable. As in the original game, winning symbols disappear from the grid and trigger cascading reactions. The distinguishing choice is the ceiling the studio has set for those cells.

According to The Intercept, some content even uses expressions like “leaving the CLT [Brazilian labour law]” and “your dream income” to promote this type of activity. There are also screenshots of alleged user earnings and posts that present gambling as a kind of investment.
These professional content creators on Instagram aren’t limited to sports betting. There are niches of creators focused on casino games, like the controversial Fortune Tiger, with a communication strategy similar to that of sports betting.

That estimate arrives courtesy of Macquarie and is well ahead of the research firm’s previous estimate of $169 billion in 2026 taker volume.
Takers is a prediction market industry colloquialism for the market participants that swiftly fill buy and sell orders, thus removing liquidity from the marketplace. Conversely, makers are the market participants viewed as liquidity providers and professional or sharp money.
“Recent launches, including customizable same-game parlays (SGPs), further support our view that Prediction Markets (PM) are increasingly converging with traditional sportsbooks,” observes Macquarie analyst Chad Beynon. “As a result, we now estimate total US PM taker volume to reach $190 billion in 2026E (vs $169 billion prior).”
