Pragmatic Play announced Hand of Midas 2 on 27 June 2024 as a 5x3 slot sequel, setting out the game’s core mechanics and published top-end payout figure.
The supplier said Wilds can carry random multipliers of 2x, 3x, 5x or 10x. If more than one multiplier Wild lands on the same spin, Pragmatic Play said the values are added together and applied to the win.
According to the announcement, three Scatters trigger between nine and 27 Free Spins, with nine mini-reels determining the total before the feature starts. Wilds remain sticky during Free Spins, and the overall win multiplier increases when a multiplier Wild lands.
Pragmatic Play also said two Scatters during the bonus can retrigger the feature for up to 18 additional spins. The supplier published a maximum win of up to 8,000 times the bet; that figure is the company’s stated game specification rather than a measured player outcome.
The announcement placed Hand of Midas 2 within Pragmatic Play’s mythological-themed portfolio and described it as an extension of an existing game world. It also named Buffalo King Untamed Megaways, Big Bass Mission Fishin’ and Sweet Bonanza 1000 as recent releases.
