Microgaming has revealed that it has paid out more than €115m through its progressive jackpot network so far this year.
Becoming Millionaire Over Night
Microgaming’s Major Millions progressive slot was hit for €1,650,382.89** at Spin Casino!
This is the seventh millionaire to be made on the network so far this year. And this equals to one millionaire a month on average!
A UK-based player, who wishes to remain anonymous, struck gold within a month of registering at Spin Casino. The lucky player pocketed the €1.6 million win from a €3 wager.
The winner will receive the prize as a lump sum and not in annuities. This is the case with all payouts on Microgaming’s progressive jackpot network.
UK spokesperson at Spin Casino, commented:
“We are absolutely thrilled for our winner, who has become a millionaire overnight. Microgaming’s Major Millions has always been a popular game and we are delighted that the new 5-reel version is proving similarly so with our customers.”
Awarding Over €115 Million This Year Alone
The win marks the third seven-figure jackpot generated on Major Millions this year. It follows a €1,650,910.31 prize on 14 March and a €1,203,349.99 jackpot on 12 June.
Other notable payouts this year include four multi-million euro jackpot wins on Microgaming’s iconic Mega Moolah, the 2020 largest win so far. Plus there has been a trio of wins in May across Atlantean Treasures™: Mega Moolah and Absolootly Mad™: Mega Moolah.
Microgaming’s progressive jackpot network continues to grow from strength to strength in 2020 with the release of new progressive titles and a wealth of life-changing wins, including 550+ players pocketing €10,000 or more.
John Coleman, CEO at Microgaming stated the following.
“With total lifetime payouts exceeding €1.2 billion, Microgaming’s progressive jackpot network has had an outstanding year to date.” The year was “driven by a number of new game releases including Wheel of Wishes, Atlantean Treasures, and Absolootly Mad.”
“We look forward to building on this momentum over the coming months,” he added. The company will be hosting more feature-rich games that “feed into our leading jackpots”.
The CEO also pointed out that jackpots have paid out over €115 million across 2,571,389 jackpots so far this year. “That’s more than eight payouts every minute on average!”
Upcoming titles on the network include Book of Atem™: WowPot (by All41 Studios) and Sisters of Oz™: WowPot (by Triple Edge Studios).
But this isn’t all, there will be other new progressive titles coming soon. These are Fortunium Gold™: Mega Moolah (Stormcraft Studios), Juicy Joker™: Mega Moolah (Just For The Win), and African Legends™ (Slingshot Studios).
