Betsoft Launches The Tipsy Tourist Christmas Vacation Slot

Betsoft Gaming has added a festive sparkle to its lineup with the release of The Tipsy Tourist: Christmas Vacation – Hold & Win, officially launched on December 4, 2025. The new slot invites players to follow Gary, the familiar character from The Tipsy Tourist, as he swaps his desk for a sunny Christmas retreat filled with cocktails, bright visuals, and thrilling gameplay features.

This latest addition to Betsoft’s portfolio keeps the classic Hold & Win mechanic at its core but introduces new elements like +1 SPIN and EXPAND symbols to keep the energy high and the rewards coming. The game operates on a 5-reel, 3-row layout with 20 paylines and boasts an RTP of 96.06%, medium-to-high volatility, and a hit rate of 23.87%.

Jake Davey, Head of Account Management at Betsoft Gaming, shared his enthusiasm for the release, saying:

“Our Hold & Win titles continue to be a standout feature, and this festive edition adds a holiday twist to the excitement. With cheerful visuals, inventive mechanics, and plenty of winning potential, THE TIPSY TOURIST: CHRISTMAS VACATION – HOLD & WINTM is the perfect way to celebrate the season.”

Holiday Features With a Twist

The central attraction of The Tipsy Tourist: Christmas Vacation – Hold & Win is the Hold & Win Feature, which activates when players land at least five scattered BONUS symbols alongside one COLLECT symbol. Once triggered, the feature grants nine respins, allowing players to chase big wins while benefiting from special icons such as +1 SPIN and EXPAND, which extend gameplay and increase prize potential.

Adding another layer of fun, the Cooler Box Bonus in the base game gives players a chance to trigger the Hold & Win round when BONUS or COLLECT symbols appear on the reels. The WILD symbols, which land on reels two through five, substitute for all other symbols except BONUS, EXPAND, +1 SPIN, and COLLECT icons, enhancing winning combinations.

Further excitement comes from Stacked Mystery Symbols, which reveal a single high-paying icon across a reel before each spin begins, keeping players guessing what’s next. For those who prefer to skip the wait, the Buy Feature offers instant access to the Hold & Win bonus round with nine respins, giving players the freedom to jump straight into the action.

Bringing Holiday Cheer to Every Spin

The slot delivers a mix of festive and tropical aesthetics—where Christmas lights blend with beachside relaxation. The cheerful soundtrack and bright design reinforce the game’s celebratory theme, ensuring players stay immersed in the joyful atmosphere while aiming for generous payouts.

Betsoft continues to build on its reputation for high-quality, entertaining releases that combine engaging features with vivid design. The Tipsy Tourist: Christmas Vacation – Hold & Win not only extends the story of one of the studio’s popular characters but also highlights the developer’s commitment to delivering innovative and enjoyable slot experiences for every season.
