Isle of Man-based software provider Microgaming is renowned for producing some of the world’s best online slots and casino games. This October, its fresh releases live up to that reputation. It might be the spookiest month of the year, but these releases aren’t too frightening.
Microgaming has teamed up with its network of development studios to produce a new body of games to top up its portfolio. The firm has ensured that there is something special to suit every player, as its games offer imaginative new worlds, cutting-edge mechanics and sleek visuals.
Microgaming is also famed for its progressive jackpot network, which is now the biggest of its kind in the world. To date it has paid out more than €1.45 billion. This year alone, its network has awarded 2.6 million wins across all jackpots, tiers and games. That adds up to more than €143 million.
In September, the operator’s newest progressive jackpot slot “Ancient Fortunes: Poseidon WowPot Megaways” was struck for €3.8 million mere days after it was launched. The title was developed exclusively for Microgaming by Triple Edge Studios, and is the first to feature both Big Time Gaming’s Megaways mechanic and the WowPot progressive jackpot.
A lucky winner in Sweden hit the jackpot at Videoslots Casino just four days after the game went live. The win is the second biggest in WowPot’s history, and the lucky player is the fourth millionaire to be made by the progressive jackpot. William Ahlberg, Head of Commercials at Videoslots, was thrilled that the win was awarded at his casino. Congratulating the player, he said:
“We’re thrilled to provide our players with access to many of Microgaming’s legendary progressive jackpot slots – and even more so that one of our players has taken home the latest WowPot win, becoming a multi-millionaire!”
Special Features and Fantastic Adventures
Microgaming’s October releases are sure to make many more happy winners. Jackpot fans can try out “Squealin’ Riches” from October 12th, developed by PearFiction Studios. The objective is to fill the golden piggy bank with gold coins to reach jackpots worth up to 10,000x the initial wager. The slot boasts 1,024 ways to win, and a thrilling LockNWin mechanic.
Those who can’t wait that long for a new title can already play “Legend of the Sword”, which was released on October 5th. This medieval fantasy from Snowborn Games transports players on an Arthurian adventure. Players should look out for the Excalibur scatter symbols and Camelot Free Spins as they search for the ultimate Excalibur Win.
Next up is “Atlantis: The Forgotten Kingdom” coming out on October 7th. The team at Half Pixel Studios have developed this title exclusively for Microgaming. This fantasy adventure takes place underwater, and features a Wild Mermaid that can trigger a wild win multiplier on any reels.
Another mythical slot to hit the lineup is Rabcat’s “Dragon’s Breath”, out from October 14th. Fire-breathing dragons set this game ablaze, as players try to land five of a kind on two or more reels to ignite the Double and Triple Flame features. Bonus spins offer big wins and cloned reels.
On October 19th, Microgaming will drop “WWE Legends: Link&Win”, created specially by All41 Studios. World famous wrestling superstars battle it out in the ring, making the most of some great mechanics. HyperSpins and Link&Win features are on offer, making this a game full of fun and potential.
Making the most of a classic and well-loved theme, “Leprechaun Links” comes out on October 21st. This is the latest title from Slingshot Studios, which Microgaming previously collaborated with to produce the “Game of Thrones Power Stacks” slot. “Leprechaun Links” boasts Power Stacks and the Link&Win bonus feature in the base game, as well as during free spins. With each spin, the Power Stacks indicator lights up to reveal a symbol that could land super stacked.
