The year of huge NetEnt jackpot wins that 2018 has been so far continues, with a lucky player picking up a staggering €6,634,456 ($7,686,204) last Monday.The win came on the granddaddy of the NetEnt progressive family, Mega Fortune, and follows a run of huge wins on various NetEnt jackpot slots in the first seven months of 2018.
What happened?
The win came at a convenient time for the player, as the Mega Million promotion, which was launched to coincide with the recent FIFA World Cup in Russia, meant the win was even bigger than it looked.The 27 year old player, who is a big fan of slots, saw a win of just under €6 million roll in on July 30th (2018) before, thanks to the Mega Millions promotion, an extra €650,000 was thrown on top of the price to take it to the hefty total stated above.
Biggest in two years
It’s been over two years since the last time Mega Fortune paid out a jackpot of this size, and to add to the luck of the player, the win was gained at LetsBet.com, a mere few hours after the player had signed up to the site.The winner, who has not yet been identified, said:“I was on vacation and just felt like playing a bit. I am not sure yet what I will use the winnings for, apart from sharing it with my closest ones and perhaps some more vacation.”Speaking of the win, which marked the end of the Mega Millions promotion, NetEnt CPO, Henrik Fagerlund, said:“It is also further proof that NetEnt AB games are regular millionaire-makers, with this being the ninth seven-figure jackpot winner in 2018.”All eyes are now on which NetEnt jackpot slot will eb the next to pay out big!
