For a broader provider comparison, use the full comparisons catalogue.

Catalogue size and game types

BGaming has 234 slots listed in the database, while ELK Studios has 151. This gives BGaming the larger catalogue for players comparing the range of games available from each provider.

The supplied database figures do not break either catalogue down into a complete list of themes, reel layouts or mechanics. As a result, this comparison does not assign a specific game-type advantage to BGaming or ELK Studios. The useful confirmed distinction is catalogue size: BGaming offers more listed titles to browse, while ELK Studios has a smaller catalogue with a greater concentration of high or very high-volatility ratings.

Catalogue size should also be separated from game quality or suitability. A larger number of listed slots does not establish that one provider is better overall. It only shows that more BGaming titles are included in this database.

Megaways and cluster pays

Megaways and cluster pays are comparison terms relevant to slot mechanics, but no provider-specific counts for these formats are included in the supplied data. Therefore, the database figures do not support a conclusion about which provider has more Megaways or cluster-pay games.

To compare a particular title, check its individual game information for the reel structure, pay method and feature rules. Those details should not be inferred from the provider-level totals.

RTP comparison

BGaming’s average stated RTP is 96.46%, compared with 94.83% for ELK Studios. On the supplied averages, BGaming has the higher figure by 1.63 percentage points.

RTP is a long-run theoretical return percentage, not a prediction of the result of one session or spin. The figures here are database averages based on stated RTP values, so they should not be used as a promise of returns from an individual game.

RTP can differ between casino versions of the same slot. Check the in-game information screen for the exact RTP setting of the title and version being played. If a specific figure is not listed for a game, it is not possible to confirm it from this provider comparison.

The phrase BGaming vs ELK Studios RTP therefore refers to the average stated values in this database, rather than a universal RTP for every game from either provider.

Volatility mix

Volatility describes how unevenly a slot’s results are distributed over time. The supplied database groups games rated high or very high volatility together for this comparison.

  • BGaming: 74% of slots are rated high or very high volatility.
  • ELK Studios: 88% of slots are rated high or very high volatility.

ELK Studios therefore has the higher share in this category, with a 14-percentage-point difference. This does not mean every ELK Studios game has high volatility, nor that every BGaming slot has lower volatility. It compares the proportions of each provider’s catalogue that fall into the combined high or very high group.

The data does not provide a full low-, medium- and high-volatility breakdown for either catalogue. For an individual game, use its listed volatility rating rather than relying on the provider average.

Signature features

The clearest feature difference in the supplied data is bonus-buy availability. Other feature categories are not supplied as provider-level totals, so no additional advantage can be confirmed from this comparison.

Bonus buy

Bonus buys are included in 78% of BGaming slots in the database and 59% of ELK Studios slots. BGaming therefore has the larger catalogue share for this feature.

These percentages describe listed availability, not the price, rules or exact function of a bonus buy. The supplied data does not include bonus-buy costs or details of how the feature works in individual games. Check the in-game information screen for the relevant title.

Max win

A top max-win figure is not listed for either BGaming or ELK Studios in the supplied data. Since no verified provider-level maximum is available, the comparison does not rank the providers by max win.

Max-win information can vary by game, and it should be checked on the individual slot’s information screen. Do not treat the catalogue size, RTP average or volatility share as a substitute for a missing max-win figure.

Top BGaming slots

The supplied row does not include individual BGaming game names or a verified list of titles ranked by performance, popularity or max win. It is therefore not possible to name “top” BGaming slots without adding unsupported ranking claims.

What the data does confirm is that 234 BGaming slots are included in the database, with an average stated RTP of 96.46%. The catalogue-level volatility figure is 74% high or very high, and 78% of listed slots include a bonus buy.

You can explore BGaming slots to review individual games and check their available RTP, volatility, features and max-win information. Where a specification is missing, use the game’s in-game information screen for confirmation.

Top ELK Studios slots

No individual ELK Studios titles or verified ranking criteria are included in the supplied data. This page therefore does not claim that one named game is the provider’s best, most popular or highest-paying slot.

The confirmed provider-level figures are 151 listed slots, an average stated RTP of 94.83%, an 88% share of high or very high-volatility games and a 59% share of slots with a bonus buy.

To compare titles within the provider’s catalogue, explore ELK Studios slots and review the specifications shown for each game. Individual RTP, volatility, bonus-buy and max-win details should be checked at game level, because the provider averages do not apply identically to every slot.
