xQc reveals he is now a slot provider with GIGA Galactic Warrior
Felix “xQc” Lengyel is one of the most popular gambling streamers in the industry today, and he has just revealed that he has now become an official slots provider, transitioning from someone who merely plays slots online a person involved in creating and distributing the actual games.
The casino streaming space is getting more popular every day, with xQc being a prominent Kick streamer who regularly creates such gambling content. Few streamers have become as prominent as xQc on Kick, and his time spent spinning the reels online is definitely a part of that. He’s now seemingly taking things to the next level, getting involved in the actual creation of slot games rather than just playing them.
What slot game did xQc create?
xQc revealed in a stream that GIGA Galactic Warrior is his very own slot game, and he also displayed some of the game’s mechanics by playing it during a live Kick broadcast.
It was during a recent Kick stream that xQc shared the news of his own new slot, GIGA Galactic Warrior, being hosted on top betting platform Stake.com. He explained that he wanted to be “transparent” about the game rather than hiding that he had played a part in creating it.
The streamer initially claimed that he didn’t want to promote or even play the game, but ended up gambling on it in the stream after being egged on by his live viewers.
xQc started the new round with a balance of $199,877, and that balance had dropped all the way down to $20,158.18 by the time he ended the slot session. Many of his live viewers on Kick found it funny that the streamer’s first live session on his own slot game didn’t fare quite so well for him, though he’s found plenty of big wins while playing on stream in the past.

xQc’s main objective in playing the slot during his stream was likely to show viewers the mechanics of the game, though it certainly didn’t hurt to promote the game to his viewers either. And because the slot is his, it likely hurt a bit less to absorb the losses he endured on it.
While xQc was starting the game, viewers got a view of the volatility settings for GIGA Galactic Warrior, which can be tweaked to change how risky the game is and how rare its wins are. The mechanics of the game are similar to those of many other online slots. Wins are based on cascades, there are bonus buys available, and the max win is a dramatic 10,000x the base bet. The RTP was apparently set at around 96%.
The Kick streamer mentioned that he has other slots also under development, hinting at this being a larger part of his business interests moving forward and a potential further contributor to xQc’s growing net worth. And judging from the excitement among his live viewers, it’s possible that this could be a very lucrative path for xQc to pursue moving forward.
