Renegades Slot
Some of our favorite heroes in stories – or even in the real world – don’t always follow the rules. Sure, they’ll do what’s right, but if that means that they can’t follow the letter of the law at all times (especially if those laws are unjust), they’ll listen to what their own conscious tells them instead. This often means they’re out on a limb by themselves looking for justice.
It’s these sorts of heroes that are at the heart of the action in Renegades by NextGen Gaming, a brand new online slot set to be released on November 1. Featuring a cast of heroines who have struck out on their own to seek adventure and riches, this is a game that promises some exciting theming and memorable characters. If the gameplay is nearly as entertaining as the previews we’ve seen, then NextGen might just have a winner on their hands.
Five Memorable Women
The Renegades video slot is a soon-to-be released online slot machine that will be available at online casinos featuring software by NextGen Gaming. The game’s theme is based around a set of five powerful women, each of which has a unique background. There’s the Valkyrie named Freya, a dragon slayer named Valda, a World War I era pilot called Harriet, the gunslinger Raffaela, and finally Ivy, a warrior of nature.
We’ve yet to see a finalized version of this machine, but early indications are that there will be plenty of betting levels in order to accommodate both low limit and high limit gamblers. We also expect a play for free version to be released for players to test before they risk any real cash. Mobile gamers will be happy to know that this machine will have compatibility with just about every device you can think of, from desktop computers down to tablets and smartphones.
Adventure Awaits
According to early reports, the Renegades video slot is a five reel machine that uses an all ways format. Given the 3x5 layout, that means that players have 243 ways to win on every single spin, and simply have to match identical icons from left to right across the screen, with no concern about paylines. Various gemstones are said to make up the lower-value symbols, while larger payouts can come from matching the Renegades themselves, with Freya offering the biggest rewards.
In addition, you’ll also be able to hit wild symbols, which can help you out by substituting for any of the normal icons in order to make winning combinations. All of these icons, including the wilds, can come in both normal-sized and larger 3x3 versions, which are known as Mega Symbols. These count on each of the positions that they cover on the reels, which can lead to some massive payouts.
Finding a Heroine
One special feature that we’re aware of on this machine is a free spins game. This bonus round is triggered by hitting three or more bonus symbols anywhere on the reels in the same spin. When this occurs, you’ll be treated to eight free spins. Before the round starts, you’ll see one of the five titular characters be chosen at random. That will be the only renegade to appear on the reels during the feature, improving your chances of making some high-paying wins. The feature can also be retriggered if you find more scatter symbols during the bonus round.
An Action-Packed Slot
While the information we have on this machine in incomplete, it seems clear that Renegades is a game that NextGen Gaming has put a lot of work into. With a strong theme and a well-developed cast of characters, this isn’t just another machine with some artwork slapped on, but rather an interesting concept that appears to be complemented by solid gameplay elements at its core. When we get our hands of the final version of this title, we’ll be sure to post a complete review so that you can decide which of these action heroines will be your favorite.
