The word is out, and it says that a new Justice League-themed video slot could be on its way to players this month. That wouldn’t come as too much of a surprise. The Batman vs Superman movie has just landed in stores to buy, and superhero crossovers seem very much in now. What is surprising is that NextGen Gaming is the developer behind the rumoured new slot.
Justice League
NextGen Gaming’s new Justice League slot will likely feature 5 reels and 25 paylines, with characters such as Batman, Superman, The Flash, The Green Lantern, and Wonder Woman likely to appear on the reels. There is no sign of Aquaman, but other characters from the DC Universe are likely to emerge.
Features
The Australian online casino software developers are going out of their way with the features of this game. A free spins feature (activated by landing Daily Planet scatters) will appear in the game, awarding 10 free spins. What’s so special about that? Well, each superhero in this slot will also offer unique features in the bonus round. We’re a bit in the dark about who does what in the features, although we have it on good authority that stacked wilds and re-spins are likely to appear in some form.
Leading Franchise
With Playtech’s Marvel franchise doomed (thanks to their buy-out by Disney), the DC slots are set to be the leading superhero franchise on the net. NextGen Gaming is joining a club with Microgaming and Cryptologic, with its Dark Knight, Green Lantern, Batman, and Superman slots.
