Playing on his mobile at Betsson’s NorgesAutomaten on Tuesday 4th July, the man’s incredible win of kr.49million (£4.59 million or €5.19 million) eclipsed Yggdrasil’s previous high mark of €3.3 million. The previous record had been set by a player on Joker Millions in December 2016.

Yggdrasil Gaming CEO Fredrik Elmqvist said: “We’re very excited to see one of our players hit our biggest ever jackpot, and I hope he treats himself to an extended summer holiday. Jackpot titles are always popular, but what makes Yggdrasil’s progressive jackpot slots so successful is the engaging base game that keeps customers happy, even though they can’t all walk away with a life-changing prize.”

“Our market-leading slots, including Empire Fortune, are enjoyed by an ever-growing number of players and operators, and as we expand our customer base, it won’t be long before another lucky player hits the big one.”

Yggdrasil Gaming, named Slot Provider of the Year at the 2016 EGR B2B Awards, has become one of the biggest providers of online and mobile casino games in the industry with its popular titles such as Empire Fortune. The game has five reels and ten paylines and can be played from 10p a spin, while the Jackpot Wheel provides the chance to win up to 500 times your bet. It also boasts an exciting Free Spins feature, three progressive jackpots and dazzling visuals.

Yggdrasil Gaming has continued its expansion over the past year by signing content partnership deals with operating giants such as Bet365 and William Hill, and you can visit either site to check out a wide selection of their best releases. It could just be that the Norwegian player’s record gets broken again very soon!
