Play’n GO is returning to the tried-and-trusted Greek mythology theme with its July 16 launch of Fate’s Fortune. This is a 5×3 slot game that stages the final showdown between Ulysses and Poseidon amid a stormy stretch of open water.
The Swedish studio has deliberately kept the game’s structure old school, with 10 fixed paylines. There’s a default RTP of 96.2%, medium volatility, and a 28.73% hit frequency. It’s much different from recent Play’n GO titles that have cascading reels and updated stack designs.
The main talking point of Fate’s Fortune is Barrage Bonus, which is built on a spin-cycle counter that counts down from 20. Ulysses symbols collected during these spins join the grid when the counter empties, each having a chance of turning into a wild or expanding wild before the cycle resets. This is different from the standard spin-cycle slot games, where the marked positions will convert automatically.
one or two Poseidon Scatter symbols that can trigger Poseidon’s Wrath
Other notable features are the one or two Poseidon Scatter symbols that can trigger Poseidon’s Wrath, which is a wheel paying 5x, 20x, 20x, or 100x, or Free Spins, with second and third wheels also being unlockable.
Getting at least three scatters triggers the free spins, which can be as many as 25 Mythical Free Spins. Each conversion creates a sticky expanding wild, and further scatters will extend the round to a maximum of 75 spins.
The launch continues a long-running Play’n GO habit of returning to old-school genres, also seen with titles like Rise of Olympus.
