Best New Slots in Summer 2020
Looking for the best new slots to play this summer? We’ve got some good news for you. Software providers have been working hard this year to release games despite all the lockdowns taking place worldwide.
They have created games inspired by everything you can imagine: football, Sci-fi TV shows, classic themes, and parties. In this article, we’ll look at seven new slots that will put you in your ideal summer holiday mood.
Rick and Morty—Blueprint Gaming
It’s been a long time coming but Rick and Morty can now be played as a slot. The fictional Adult Swim cartoon is one of the most popular shows on American TV. And now fans of Rick and Morty can interact with their favorite scientist duo in their quest to solve tons of scientific mysteries.
Created by software provider Blueprint Gaming, the slot version of the TV shows looks a lot like the cartoon. There’s Morty appearing to shout and run. And then there’s Rick who’s always into something peculiar.
The six-reels game comes with 117,649 ways to win, categorizing it in the same section as Bonanza, and White Rabbit. In other words, it’s a Megaways slot—a new breed of games with symbols that can be modified to increase paylines to unbelievably huge amounts.
Why play Rick and Morty? It’s a beautifully designed, high-paying game. What’s more, it’s jam-packed with rewarding features: from bonus rounds and Vindicators to multipliers and a jackpot worth 50,000x your bet.
Pink Elephants 2—Thunderkick
Creating a sequel can be challenging for many developers. Far too many remakes fail. Fortunately, Thunderkick seems to have cracked the code of how to make a good sequel with the release of Pink Elephant 2.
It’s not an entirely new game. It’s an improvement of the original, from the graphics and paylines to bonus features and gameplay. With the new release, the background shifts from a desert to a mountainous region graced by stargates.
The payout rates stand at a competitive 96.13%, almost at par with the wildly successful Gonzo’s Quest. This game lacks the cascading reels that made the NetEnt slot a cult favorite though. But it features 4,096 ways to win and pays up to 10,000x your stake.
There are thirteen paying symbols in this game. Six pink elephants pay 10x, golden goats, 6.5x whereas green goats 5.5x your bet. When scatters appear, you win up to 19 free spins. And if you’re lucky, more spins will appear during the bonus round.
Street Fighter 2—NetEnt
NetEnt’s Street Fighter was one of the most talked-about games this May because of a controversial feature that allowed people to bet once they got close to a bonus round. Complains arose left right and center and the software provider eventually took off the game from the market.
You can play Street Fighter II in a demo version. And if you want to play something similar for real money, play a similarly titled game by Cryptologic (Wager Logic).
In the meantime, here’s what to expect from Street Fighter 2 by NetEnt. It pays homage to the similarly named classic video game released in 1991. As such, the characters, fonts, and graphics look like a throwback to a classic slot.
Nonetheless, Street Fighter 2 is a modern game with five reels, wilds, and scatters. The slot’s roster of eight fighters acts as the paying symbols. They payout differently, so pick your starfighter wisely before bouts.
Agent Destiny—Play’n GO
If Agent Destiny feels like a character from a famous franchise, that’s because it is. The franchise isn’t James Bond, though, but a successful 60s comic book about bad guys, billionaires, scientists, and beautiful women.
To pay home to its origins, Agent Destiny features retro graphics, comic-style images, and a gripping storyline. It’s a new age video slot, nonetheless with its five reels, 20 paylines, and a payout rate of 96.22%.
If you want to win, partner with the right agent: Destiny, Green, and Blue. These three spies pay 6x to15x when they grace your reels. When five wild safe images appear on the reels, you get paid 60x your bet. The maximum you can win is 5000x your wager.
Charlie Chance in Hell to Pay—Play’n GO
Play’n GO invites you to witness the punishment of Charlie Chance in hell, a quirky character inspired by 1920s Walt Disney cartoons. The slot features predominantly black and white graphics with just a sprinkle of color.
It’s not as scary as the name suggests. Instead, it’s a tad spooky but features all the symbols of a 21st-century slot. That means there’s a bunch of paying symbols, a random jackpot, multipliers, and free spins galore.
The game has three wilds—a multiplier, the standard wild, and a bonus round wild. Then there’s a scatter with instant cash prizes, re-spins with wilds or multipliers. The maximum you can win is 6,666x your bet.
Dragon’s Maiden—Play’n GO
Dragon Maiden’s is unlike most slots out there. It combines the best features from other famous games to provide the ultimate summer holiday game. On the one hand, you have a high-paying slot with beautiful graphics.
On the other, you have intriguing features such as expanding reels, multipliers, free spins, and dragon transformations. Although the game comes with six reels and 243 paylines, it can expand to six reels and 7,776 ways to win.
Unlike most slots, you get free spins with just two scatter symbols on the reels. What’s more, two of the images are locked so that you can have an additional spin. If it leads to a similar image, you receive more free spins until you have five of them.
The Dragon Maiden is the best-paying symbol. She also acts as the wild and can form on all reels to award you real money wins or free spins. She pays up to 3000x in the base game or 5000x your stake in the bonus rounds.
There are more paying symbols, including a golden free spin that leads you closer to the mouth-watering 5000x jackpot.
