A hugely popular theme among players, Ancient Egypt is the setting for Pragmatic Play‘s new online slot title, Might of Ra, which centers on the most powerful of all the Egyptian gods. The king of all the deities, Ra has the ability to bestow riches on those who brave the sun-scorched reels in this high volatility game that is “filled to the brim with extensive bonus features and modifiers.”

Available on any device, the 6-reel, 4-row grid has a return to player (RTP) high of 96.49 percent and 50 fixed paylines, with a max win of  22,500x the bet. Here, winning combinations are formed by landing at least three matching symbols from left to right on adjacent reels starting from the leftmost reel.

Symbols and features:

There are nine regular symbols including 10, J, Q, K and A card icons, which for six of a kind are worth from 2.5 to 5 times the bet while a scorpion, a flaming phoenix, a stallion and a ferocious serpent are worth 7.5 to 15 times the bet for six across a row. The all-powerful Ra serves as the game’s one and only wild symbol and appears on all reels, substituting for all symbols with the exception of the golden scarab/scatter bonus. The bonus symbol can only land on reels.

When a Ra wild symbol hits, it can randomly change into a full-reel wild, with a 3x multiplier applied to any winning combination it is part of. Wilds are also able to form combinations themselves, with a line of five worth up to 25x the bet. The bonus symbol can land on reels 2, 3, 4, or 5 and landing at least three of them triggers the extra spins feature, with players awarded 15 spins.

During extra spins, a new Ankh symbol appears, with each one collected and added to the meter located to the left of the reels, so that players can track their progress. Players trigger additional rewards when they collect at least five Ankh symbols, allowing them to level up.

Players have a chance to win up to 22,500x in the base game and extra spins feature. The feature can be retriggered if a player is able to land two, three, or four bonus symbols, awarding an additional three, six, or nine extra spins, respectively.

In a company press release, Yossi Barzely, Chief Business Development Officer for Pragmatic Play, had the following to say about the new video slot…

“Filled to the brim with extensive bonus features and modifiers, Might of Ra provides players with free spins and the opportunity to trigger big wins.

“Ancient Egypt remains a very popular theme with players, and we wanted to bring something exciting and new to operators and fans alike.”

Recent business:

The new ancient Egyptian themed game follows recent releases Elemental Gems Megaways™, The Ultimate 5, and Colossal Cash Zone™, each of which is part of a portfolio of more than 200 HTML5 titles.

Mighty Ra also comes hot on the heels of the multi-product content provider’s new partnership with Argentinean firm OneBitTech.

The deal will see the Latin American platform provider supply its operator partners with Pragmatic Play’s player-favorite slots, such as Sweet Bonanza CandyLand, which transforms its 2019 hit slot Sweet Bonanza into a mega wheel-style game with two exciting bonus games, Wolf Gold, and the Greek mythology-themed title Gates of Olympus, which won the Game of the Year award at the EGR Operator Awards on November 25, 2021.
