The Wild 3 looks set to debut at the end of the month

There’s no shortage of Wild West-themed slots on the net, but that isn’t going to stop NextGen Gaming from launching their latest addition to the arsenal. The Wild 3 is shaping up to be a tasty little piece, although players are going to have to wait until September 26 to get their hands on the new game. While that may sound like quite a wait, we have been able to get a sneak peek at what the slot is likely to offer.

About the slot

Let’s skip the obvious – you already know that this game is based on the Wild West. There are three animals which appear in the game and what give the slot its name. They are the bull, coyote and racoon. Here’s the nifty part – they are all wild symbols.

Racoons appearing on the third reel in this game will add extra wilds to the reels. If you up the ante with an increased bet (known as the Super Bet) you can bring bull and coyote wilds into the game, too. Bulls can offer random 2x to 10x multiplier, and coyotes can turn cactus symbols (low-paying icons) into wilds if they land on the third reel.

The slot also offers a free spin bonus round. There are 5 spins up for grabs, with sticky wilds appearing on the reels. Any additional wilds which pop up will also become sticky, and bonus icons (used to trigger the bonus) will offer additional spins.

If you were a gnat’s wing away from triggering the bonus, you may land the Lock ‘N’ Load bonus instead. This can see you attempt to complete missions to possibly trigger a Rob the Rich click and win bonus. It’s not too shabby a consolation prize.

It may be a while before the game launches (September 26), but with features like these, we’re eagerly awaiting The Wild 3 slot.
