Gates of Hades — RTP, volatility and max win

Gates of Hades by Pragmatic Play takes you into the realm of Hades from Greek myth: gems, a crown, a ring and a wolf glitter in violet and dark blue among the flames. Wins form as clusters, winning symbols drop away and wilds bring their own multipliers.

The playing field is a large 6×6 grid with no paylines. The imagery comes from the gods of ancient Greece – sparkling gems, plus a crown, a ring and a wolf, in violet and dark blue with touches of fire. The stake can be set from €0.20 to as much as €240. Gates of Hades came out on May 22, 2025. Roughly 29.01% of spins land a win.

Across the 6×6 field, clusters count: matching symbols that touch horizontally or vertically form a group and pay together. After each win the group vanishes, new symbols drop in from above and the grid is evaluated again, so one spin can turn into a chain of hits. Wilds can join any group. The stake of €0.20 to €240 covers the whole grid.

Cascades keep a spin going: as long as new clusters form, symbols keep dropping in. Wilds carry a multiplier that boosts the win of their cluster, and a random multiplier can strike on top at any time.

Scatters are the key to the free spins, where a free spins multiplier lifts the wins of the round. The bonus bet raises your stake for a better chance at free spins, and buying the bonus skips directly to the round.

In Gates of Hades, winning clusters drop away and new symbols fall in, often several times per spin; more titles that work this way are listed under inferno slots with cascades.

RTP 96.52%, higher than 89% of the 400 Inferno slots. Background: how RTP works on a slot. Volatility High, like 85 of the 182 slots in the Fire & flame theme. Background: what slot volatility means.
