New Playtech Online Slots Celebrate Sporting Legends

Added: March 2, 2018

Playtech, a leading games supplier to online casinos, has announced a new series of online slots titled Sporting Legends. The objective is to celebrate sportspersons that have excelled in their fields and provide online casino players with innovative and exciting game play. The Sporting Legends online slots will be live at Playtech powered casinos like Bet365, Mansion Casino and Omni Casino.

Playtech intends to launch the individual games alongside matching sporting events. The first title Frankie Dettori Sporting Legends has already hit the online casinos. It has been timed to gather traffic during the Cheltenham Festival horse racing festival taking place later this month. The second Sporting Legends slot game will be based on the champion snooker player Ronnie O’Sullivan. The third game in the series, World Cup Top Trumps, will be released in time for the FIFA World Cup in Russia in June and will feature the world’s biggest soccer stars.

Frankie Dettori Sporting Legends slot game is available across desktops and mobile devices. The main symbols are Frankie Dettori on a horse and a close up of the legendary jockey. The other thematic symbols include horseshoe, helmet and winner ribbon rosettes. The gold trophy is the wild symbol and also awards the highest line payouts.

The Galloping Wild Respins feature is triggered when reel 1 is fully covered by the galloping wild symbol. The symbol then moves one reel to the right with each respin with increasing multipliers until the symbol exits from reel 5 or you do not win on any of the respins. The scatter symbol awards payouts multiplied by the total bet and it also triggers the Golden Derby free spins feature. The free spins continue till a virtual race played alongside is in progress. The result of this race determines the free spins multiplier.

In an industry first, each slot game in the series will be linked to a network of three Sporting Legends jackpots. One is guaranteed to hit daily; one is guaranteed to hit weekly and one is a gigantic payout Mega Jackpot that will hit randomly. Players can view timers within the game that count down to deadlines for the daily and weekly jackpots.

Playtech online casinos will be running a spectacular network promotion to celebrate the launch of Frankie Dettori Sporting Legends. This will run from March 1 to March 22 and will offer players the chance to win up to £200,000 from the weekly prize draw. Check out your Playtech online casino for details.
