About Gladiator Jackpot
The Gladiator Jackpot is a progressive jackpot from Playtech and features in their Gladiator slot series. With the slot games based on the 2000 film of the same name starring Russell Crowe, Playtech decided that the slots needed a colossal boost with a mighty jackpot.
In 2009, the first game in the Gladiator series launched and it was an immediate hit with players. Playtech noticed this and decided to make it more entertaining for players with the addition of a progressive jackpot attached to the game.
The Gladiator Jackpot is available in both Gladiator and Gladiator Road to Rome with the potential to top £500,000.
How do you trigger the Gladiator Jackpot?
When three wild symbols appear in any position on reels 2, 3 and 4 during the main game and free spins - this triggers the Gladiator Jackpot Bonus. Players are taken to a different screen that reveals 9 helmets in either bronze, silver or gold.
What happens when the Gladiator Jackpot is triggered?
During free spins, the values of the helmets are added up and you are sent back to the main game. However, if you spin 9 golden helmets during the main game - you activate the Gladiator Jackpot. The more you bet, the bigger chance you have of activating the Gladiator Jackpot.
As the Gladiator Jackpot is progressive, every wager will go to the jackpot meaning that the amount is constantly fluctuating. So depending on the time you play, you could win an almighty jackpot.
