BGaming's Sugar Merge Up™ enhances popular Merge Up™ 2 gameplay with confectionery themes and innovative Booster modes targeting high-volatility players.
Apr 9, 2026 · 3 min read
BGaming has released Sugar Merge Up™, a confectionery-themed evolution of the developer's successful Merge Up™ 2 mechanics. The new title combines the proven grid-based gameplay with enhanced features designed to appeal to operators seeking high-volatility content with broad player appeal.
The core gameplay revolves around upgraded merge mechanics featuring Bubblegum symbols that activate at the 8th level of sequences. These symbols clear eight nearby positions, boost multipliers in affected cells by one, and transform into Scatter symbols – creating multiple engagement pathways within a single feature.
Sugar Merge Up™ introduces two distinct Booster modes to diversify the gameplay experience. The Random Booster distributes multipliers up to ×128 across the grid, while Booster ×16 applies ×16 multipliers to all cells from game start. Combined with the Chance ×2 feature for faster Free Spins access, these mechanics support the game's ×10,000 max multiplier potential.
Key Game Features
Sugar Merge Up™ features upgraded merge mechanics with Bubblegum symbols that activate at the 8th level, clearing eight nearby positions and boosting multipliers. The game includes two Booster modes: Random Booster with multipliers up to ×128 and Booster ×16 that applies ×16 multipliers to all cells from game start.
The slot targets the growing casual gaming segment through its multi-colored confectionery world, cutesy jelly bear mascot, and relaxing ASMR-style sound design. Despite the approachable aesthetic, BGaming has classified Sugar Merge Up™ as very high volatility, positioning it for operators balancing accessibility with high-engagement gameplay.
"With Sugar Merge Up™, we wanted to build on the beloved Merge Up™ 2 mechanics using positive feedback from real players. We introduced vibrant visuals and new Booster modes that add both strategy and fun to the gameplay, resulting in a super-sweet, very high volatility game."
— Alex Baliukonis, Game Producer at BGaming
