Time Zones & DST
Studios schedule globally. Always confirm Irish local time (and daylight saving) in your calendar. Operators should show a local timestamp next to UTC markers.

- Pick one flagship and one backup title
- Verify the edition RTP and promo terms
- Set a time‑boxed session for the window
- Review progress and lock profits on spikes
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Likely Cause | Action |
|---|
| Title missing at launch | Jurisdiction filter / delayed publish | Refresh, check eligibility; try backup title |
| Different RTP shown | Edition mismatch | Capture overlay; ask support which edition is live |
| Promo not applying | Missed window or excluded title | Confirm local time and eligible list |
FAQ
- Are all releases High RTP? No—editions vary; labels should be explicit in lobby and overlays.
- Do mobile drops differ? Often staged for mobile traffic and lighter assets; gameplay is edition‑consistent.
- What if a launch slips? Operators should update the calendar and surface a fallback recommendation.
With calendar visibility and edition labels, launch nights become predictable. Plan around Irish prime‑time windows, confirm promo hooks, and you’ll turn new‑title hype into structured, enjoyable sessions.
