Pragmatic Play launches first global progressive jackpot game

Leading content provider to the iGaming industry, Pragmatic Play, has launched its first global progressive jackpot game.

“Wolf Gold PowerJackpot”, the sequel to “Wolf Gold”, features a two-stage jackpot process that is activated when all five reels turn gold on a single spin. Players are then transferred to a jackpot mini game, where they are faced with the Power Wheel.

This has two tiers, with the first displaying bet multipliers that guarantee a base prize of at least 10x, and the jackpot tier, where players can win one of the four jackpots – Mini, Minor, Major and Power.

When the Power tier, with an expected average prize of €4,500,000 (US$4.5 million), is won, the community feature is activated. This means that 50% of the pot will be given to the winning players, while the other 50% is given to the last 1,000 users who have played the title, ensuring the entire ecosystem of players that have contributed to the jackpot benefit from its win.

“Wolf Gold PowerJackpot” also features Free Spins and Respins in the base game, which are triggered when three Scatters land on the reels, awarding spins for a lucrative bonus round.

The Respins occur when six or more full moons land, taking players to a Hold and Win style bonus round. Players are granted three spins to land as many money symbols as possible, each of which has a cash value. Every successful turn of the reels resets the count, and at the end of the round, the value of all money symbols is accumulated towards the payout.

“We’re always looking to bring fantastic additions to our audience and ‘Wolf Gold PowerJackpot’ fits that description,” said Irina Cornides, Chief Operating Officer at Pragmatic Play.

“Taking one of our most popular titles and twisting it with a new community jackpot feature gives an ecosystem dimension for players and drives higher levels of engagement and retention for our partners.

“We’re incredibly proud of what we’ve brought to the market and can’t wait for the community to start enjoying their rewards.”
