April 2025 International Gambling Trends: Slots Take the Spotlight as Table Games Disappear Across Latin America

Published: May 7, 2025 | Author: Ron Clarke

As we do every month, we once again turn our attention to the Latin American market, where Betsson brings us the latest data—this time revealing the top-performing games for April 2025 and offering fresh insights into regional player preferences. This month highlights both the stability of established favorites like Aviator and Joker’s Jewels, as well as the emergence of lesser-known games such as Boxes in Brazil. Notably, compared to March, April saw a complete absence of table games—such as blackjack and roulette—from the top three rankings in any country, marking a significant shift back to slots. Let’s break down the results for each country and see how these trends stack up against the past months.

Mexico: A Strong Month for Fire Blaze and Big Bass In Mexico, “Fire Blaze Sky Queen” rises to the top, offering another successful month for the Fire Blaze series, which has seen multiple entries ranked highly throughout 2024 and 2025. “Big Bass Vegas Double Down Deluxe” maintains a solid position at number two, continuing its momentum from recent months. Meanwhile, Aviator stays on the list in third place, marking another consistent showing in Mexico despite stronger competition from slots.

Colombia: A Steady Trio Holds On Colombia presents a familiar lineup, with Aviator once again taking the top spot—a position it has held for over a year. “Tucanito” continues its rise, remaining in second place after breaking into the top five in recent months. “Spaceman” rounds out the top three, showing continued interest in space-themed games and reinforcing Colombia’s preference for fast-paced, skill-influenced titles.

Perú: 20 Bulky Fruits Remains Unchallenged Peru continues to be the domain of “20 Bulky Fruits by Paolo Guerrero,” which has led the charts since January. The patriotic collaboration seems to have struck a lasting chord with Peruvian players. “Tucanito” also performs strongly again, and Aviator retains third place, making Peru another region where this high-risk game maintains relevance despite fierce competition.

Ecuador: Sweet Slots Dominate In Ecuador, the trend is all about vibrant, fast-paced slots. “Sweet Bonanza 1000” takes first place this month, followed by “Sugar Supreme Powernudge,” another sugary hit. “Starlight Princess 1000” comes in third, adding a whimsical, fantasy-style title to the mix. Compared to March, where Aviator was number one, April signals a shift back toward slot-centric preferences.

Brazil: Boxes Makes a Bold Entrance April brings a shake-up in Brazil. “Boxes” claims the top spot, a new entry that hasn’t appeared in previous reports. Aviator comes in second, maintaining its long-standing popularity. The third position goes to “Mines,” another game that aligns with Brazil’s recent trend toward quick, luck-based games with simple mechanics. This shows an interesting balance between experimentation and loyalty to proven titles.

Argentina: Joker’s Jewels Still Shines Argentina continues to show unwavering love for “Joker’s Jewels” and its jackpot variant, both securing the top two positions yet again. These games have been dominating the Argentine charts for more than a year. “Gold Party,” a recurring entry in this market, finishes third. Argentina stands out as one of the most stable countries in terms of player preferences.

Chile: A New Country Joins the Rankings April marks the debut of Chile in the Betsson rankings, and its top games already resemble familiar regional trends. “Tucanito” lands at number one, followed by “Gates of Olympus” and its sequel “Gates of Olympus 1000.” The presence of both versions of this mythological slot suggests immediate appeal among Chilean players for epic-themed slots.

Notable Observations and Regional Shifts As April unfolds, several patterns emerge. Aviator remains a foundational favorite in Colombia, Peru, Brazil, and Mexico, but slips from Ecuador’s top three for the first time in several months. The continued success of local favorites like “20 Bulky Fruits” in Peru and “Joker’s Jewels” in Argentina highlights strong national affinities.

Meanwhile, we see innovation making waves, with Brazil’s embrace of “Boxes” and Chile’s enthusiastic welcome of established slot franchises. Table games like blackjack and roulette, which saw modest returns in February and March, are completely absent from April’s rankings, signaling a renewed dominance of slot-based experiences.
