Release The Kraken Megaways™

Release the Kraken Megaways™ is an aquatic-themed slot from Pragmatic Play and a sequel in the provider's Kraken series. It uses a six-reel, changing matrix that can produce up to 117,649 ways to win.

Fish symbols populate the reels, while wilds, scatters and mystery symbols drive the main features. The listed maximum win is 10,000 times the stake.

The number of active symbol positions can change between spins, so the available win ways are not fixed. At full size, the matrix offers 117,649 ways to form combinations across the six reels.

This variable layout is central to the game. When testing the demo, it is worth checking the current number of ways before assessing a result, particularly when mystery symbols or wilds are present.

Landing three or more wild symbols activates the respins feature. Once it begins, the existing wilds roam across the reels after each respin.

The sequence can continue when another wild lands, as each new wild awards an additional spin. This creates a feature built around keeping multiple wilds active while extending the respin chain.

Three or more scatter symbols trigger the free spins round with six starting spins. Before or during this feature, players can open chests that award different modifiers.

Possible chest rewards include extra spins, additional roaming wilds, multipliers and minimum payways. The selected modifiers can therefore change both the starting conditions and the structure of the bonus.

All wild symbols become roaming wilds during free spins. They move after spins rather than remaining fixed in one position.

If two roaming wilds stop in the same position, the multiplier increases by 1x. Repeated overlaps can make the multiplier more important as the feature develops.

Mystery symbols can appear on the reels and resolve into matching symbols. By revealing the same symbol across several positions, they can improve the chance of creating connected combinations on the active Megaways grid.

Their value depends on what they reveal and how many ways are available on that spin. They are separate from the roaming wild mechanics but can contribute to larger screen coverage.

The Release the Kraken Megaways demo is useful for seeing how often the matrix changes and how the roaming wilds behave during respins. Pay attention to the requirement of at least three wilds for respins and at least three scatters for free spins.

Inside the bonus, note which chest modifiers are awarded, whether wilds overlap, and how any 1x multiplier increases develop. These details provide a clearer picture of the mechanics than judging the game from a small number of base spins.

Pragmatic Play combines a six-reel Megaways matrix with two wild-focused bonus systems. The respins feature uses roaming wilds and can extend when new wilds arrive, while free spins add chest modifiers and an increasing multiplier mechanic.

The main specifications confirmed for the slot are up to 117,649 ways to win, six initial free spins and a maximum win of 10,000x. Mystery symbols provide an additional route to matching-symbol combinations.
