One lucky LeoVegas player from Sweden won the record-breaking Joker Millions’ jackpot, a slot from Yggdrasil.

It looked like the lucky player from Sweden was just having a good time playing Joker Millions. We don`t think the player meant to win a lot. Just think about the fact the LeoVegas customer was betting only 5 SEK per spin (the sum equals about €0.50). But then the jackpot reached a record size. Soon, the player hit a mind-blowing prize worth €7.8 million.

“We are thrilled to see a player wins such a life-changing sum of money. Especially this close to Christmas and while playing one of our slots games on mobile”, — Fredrik Elmqvist, CEO at Yggdrasil, said.

At LeoWegas confirms that on the evening of Friday, 9th November 2018, one very happy individual found their fortune on one of their main progressive jackpot games. The lucky player from Sweden mastered the jokers for a monumental win of €7,832,262.02!

Yggdrasil slot game set highest ever jackpot at the moment for itself. The previous record for Yggdrasil was €5.2 million back in July 2017. The latest jackpot payout by Yggdrasil was the €1.1 million prize last November.

To celebrate the good news, LeoVegas is giving away Free Spins to both new and existing customers, on certain Yggdrasil games up to 23rd November. The campaign will run in all countries except Italy, United Kingdom, Ireland and Denmark.

Joker Millions is one of the Yggdrasil’s most popular slot machines. It was launched in 2015 and is quite classic fruit slots machine featuring the traditional symbols including bells, sevens and cherries. While the jackpot in Joker Millions begins to rise once more, there are plenty of other jackpot games to choose from. You can search for Royal Family and Vikings Go Berzerk — other casino slots by Yggdrasil. We also recommend to try the exclusive Pirates: Smugglers Paradise for LeoVegas, developed by Yggdrasil too.
