It happened at Hyper Casino
An online slots player is celebrating after winning a jackpot which paid him the equivalent of around C$3.74 million. The lucky player has chosen to remain anonymous, but we can tell you that he is a 37-year-old who lives in Sweden, and that he won the life-changing prize of 26,958,246 SEK on the Mega Fortune game at Hyper Casino. As if that wasn’t enough, he also became the country’s first ever millionaire jackpot winner, which is a pretty good claim to fame.About Mega Fortune
Mega Fortune was developed by NetEnt and is one of the most popular progressive jackpot slots in the world. The five-reel game is based on the theme of having – you guessed it – a mega fortune, and symbols used include a limousine, designer jewellery, champagne, a wad of banknotes, and more.This game actually boasts three jackpots, and the Mega Jackpot is the biggest of the lot. It can be won via a bonus game which involves spinning a Mega Fortune Wheel that comprises three concentric zones. Spin the outer zone and you will either win the smallest jackpot or you will progress to the next zone. Proceed all the way to the middle of the wheel in this way and the Mega Fortune jackpot will be delivered with all the bells and whistles you could hope for.
What the Winner Said
‘Unreal, it's unbelievable,’ said the winner when asked to comment on his seven-figure success. ‘I do not really consider myself lucky other than for this jackpot. My biggest win prior to this big win was of approximately 10,000 SEK [around C$1,400].’
Hyper Casino Are Also Thrilled
The team at Hyper Casino are almost as delighted about this win as the winner himself, especially as it has only been operating in the newly-regulated Swedish market for a relatively short period of time.‘We’re absolutely thrilled with this huge win and would like to congratulate the lucky winner on his life changing jackpot,’ said the CEO of Hyper Casino. ‘This just shows that Hyper Casino is one of the best gaming destinations for Swedish players and we hope that we’ll soon be celebrating many more big winners from Sweden in the near future.’
