Playtech Launches ‘Zeus’

Playtech has launched new online title “Zeus,” part of a new suite of networked progressive online slot games called Age of the Gods.

Online gaming content supplier Playtech announced the launch of “Zeus,” the first title in the new Age of the Gods suite of progressive jackpot network slot games.

Zeus is the first of seven Age of the Gods Omni-channel slot games to be launched, with the remaining six titles “coming thick and fast across the rest of 2016,” the company said in a press release.

Zeus is a five-reel, 25-line slot featuring “neon” graphics, unique bonuses and new features designed to engage players across Playtech’s casino network of top-tier licensees. Players receive wins across the Playtech progressive jackpot network, which offers the largest prizes in the industry across more than 70 games.

Features include spinning three scatters to trigger 10 free games with a frozen Zeus Wild and an increasing win multiplier, while players stand a chance of winning one of four Age of the Gods mystery jackpots on any spin.

The other titles in the series to be launched across the Playtech network this year include Hercules, Furious Four, Athena, Age of the Gods and Fate Sisters.

“Our casino unit has developed a series of incredible, high-quality games that will add yet another dimension to our already-unique suite of 600 best-performing titles,” said Shimon Akad, COO of Playtech. “Zeus is just the beginning. The gods are most certainly coming, and our licensees and their players can expect a whole stream of Age of the Gods content that will be launched across the rest of this year.”
