On the heels of its recent string of commercial deals and Pragmatic Play now transports players to Ancient Greece in its latest hit title, Spartan King.

Based on King Leonidas of Sparta, the leader of the legendary 300, the five-reel, four-row, and 40 payline slot sees players try their best to defend the “son of the lion” and win some hard-earned riches.

“We continue to produce games which prioritise an immersive, engaging gameplay.”

Symbols included in Pragmatic’s latest offering are J-A card values, along with the premiums, which include a sword, a helmet, ships, a hydria (vase) and a soldier with a sword. Players who land five premiums on a line, earn wins of 4 to 7.5 times the stake.

Gameplay perks:

Meanwhile, the King serves as the Wild and is worth up to 20x the wager for five of a kind, while the golden Shield symbol takes a 2×2 size and is able to land anywhere on the reels to substitute for any of the pays and gains an extra ability during casino spins.

In order to activate the extra spins mode, at least three bonus symbols must land on the reels, with players receiving up to 12 extra spins. And any shield symbols that land during the bonus round will come with a random multiplier of up to 25 times the stake.

Engaging offering:

Chief Business Development Officer for Pragmatic Play, Yossi Barzely, commented on the new release…

“Spartan King sees players taken into the heat of battle to protect their King and win hard-earned riches in our latest high-volatility slot.

“We continue to produce games which prioritise an immersive, engaging gameplay and we’re delighted with Spartan King.”

The title based on an ancient civilization follows the recent festive holiday release, Christmas Carol Megaways, with both video slots further complementing the developer’s award-winning slots portfolio.

Global expansion:
