Green Lantern set for imminent launch

With Playtech’s Marvel themed superhero slots now officially dead in the water (again, thank you Disney), it seemed inevitable that Playtech would push on with their Warner Bros/DC licensed superhero themed slots. We have already seen numerous Batman themed games launched over the last few months, as well as a token Superman themed game. Now, we’re set to see the Green Lantern receive a slot of his own.

Comic Book Theme

This fully licensed slot was first touted back in 2016, but it isn’t until now that we are finally able to get a proper good look at the game. This slot is based on the comic book series, rather than the 2011 film starring Ryan Reynolds – who is better known for playing the anti-hero Deadpool in the recent film, and rumoured sequel.

Slot Features

Although the exact details of the slot remain under wraps, Playtech has developed a video preview and released it to the online casino gaming world this month. It showcases the stacked wilds, collapsing wilds, multipliers, free spins, and several bonus rounds that we can expect to find in this slot machine.

Progressive Jackpots

Playtech have also included the four tried and tested, randomly triggered progressive jackpots for players to win. These progressives are linked, so that players trying their hand at any DC licensed game under Playtech’s control can win the same prizes. In short, you don’t necessarily have to be playing the Green Lantern slot to pocket one of the progressives.

No Launch Date Yet

There is no definitive launch date for this 5-reel, 243-line video slot yet, although the most likely time for the game to launch would be this month, since that is when many of Playtech’s rivals will be unveiling their own new games. Some rivals are even developing their own superhero themed slots to challenge Playtech’s dominance in this genre.
