BGaming sets 14 October go-live for Chicken Halloween, a seasonal take on Chicken Shot

BGaming has announced Chicken Halloween, a seasonal addition to its #Casual portfolio. The title is scheduled to go live on 14 October 2026, ahead of the Halloween period.

The game is a themed variant of the studio's existing Chicken Shot title. It is set on a farm decorated for the occasion, with gravestones, scarecrows, black cats and jack-o'-lanterns. The chickens wear costumes, appearing as vampires, witches, pumpkins, zombies, ghosts and hunchbacks, and each carries a multiplier of up to 64x the bet.

Gameplay relies on a tap-to-shoot mechanic that BGaming has used in other releases. Players place the cursor on a chicken and click to fire. Depending on the multiplier, a hit can pay out instantly, while a miss means the bet is lost. Hovering over a chicken shows the probability of winning, and the source notes that the chance of landing the 64x prize on a first attempt is 1.52%. Each chicken also displays the number of unsuccessful clicks made so far.

The chickens move around the screen continuously. Some stay in view, while others appear only briefly, which the studio says is intended to keep the action more dynamic.

On the technical side, Chicken Halloween is described as a low-volatility game with a maximum multiplier of 64x, an average hit rate of 66.2 and an RTP of 97%.

The launch follows BGaming's recent release of Red and Hot Chilli, a game in its #Entertainment line that also features a chicken character. It also comes as other suppliers push out Halloween content, with Pragmatic Play having recently launched Big Bass Halloween Splash 1000.
