In the developer 1X2 Gaming’s June 2019 video slot Here Comes Summer, the themes range from vacationing and summertime to card values and beachwear. The sea setting resembles that of Under the Waves (November 2019).

Nine symbols (J, Q, K, A, sandcastle, flipflops, beach umbrella, keepsake box, and isle) out of the game’s thirteen symbols require three, four or five rightward combinations in its 20 fixed and nonadjustable pay lines. Also, Here Comes Summer has free games, progressive win multipliers, elongating shark, two substituting wilds, and varying bet sizes in different versions.
