New version of Lord of the Rings slot game

The popular Lord of the Rings slot game from the dominant gaming software provider Microgaming is going live after several improvements made.

Lord of the Rings (LOTR) slot game has been restructured lately and it is expected to be released soon, according to the latest news issued by two popular online casinos. All Jackpots online casino and Royal Vegas online casino both announced the release of the revamped Microgaming slot game, LOTR, which is to go live in September. The confirmation from Microgaming has not yet come.

The new game is based on the success of the previous game, as Royal Vegas casino states. A new feature of the game is the introduction of the character Gollum, which is expected to entertain players. This character can appear anywhere on the paylines and offer prizes and bonuses to players. Gollum was a hobbit and he possessed one of the Rings, before losing it to Bilbo Baggins. The character developed double personality because of the ring, creating Slinker, who was friendly, and Stinker who was mostly violent. The two personalities often came into contradiction when Gollum talked to himself.

Besides Gollum, the game brings along a progressive jackpot too. The game has 4 progressive jackpots and each of them can be won with the randomly triggered Bonus Wheel feature. New graphic features have also been added and the best features of the previous game have been kept. A great feature is the 243 ways to win at this game, which definitely enchants players. Other feature is the Cinematic Spins, where scenes from the LOTR movie are played while the reels spin.

For the time being, Microgaming is not rushing into making the releases public. This is owed to the huge investment made with Warner Brothers, the owner of the copyright to the Lord of the Rings trilogy, and now it is time to recover after the efforts made.
