Le King, released 26th June 2025 by Hacksaw Gaming, doesn’t stray far from the groundwork laid out in Le Bandit and Le Viking. The core mechanics and multi-tiered bonus rounds are present, just repackaged in neon under the bright lights of the Vegas strip.
Smokey the raccoon is back, but this time he’s decided to head to Las Vegas to become an Elvis impersonator, complete with a white rhinestone jumpsuit. The cheeky Racoon stands at the side of the 6×5 grid, with all the charm of a washed-up lounge act — scratching when he’s bored, lighting up with cocky approval when the wins roll in. It’s a character choice that pretty much sums up the whole slot: slick, cheeky, and just slightly off-kilter.
Design and Symbols
What sets Le King apart is how it layers that familiar coin and Clover mechanic over a Vegas strip backdrop, giving players another shot at reveals and wild multipliers, but this time with more attitude and a soundtrack that’s all showbiz. It’s the same high-risk hunt for big hits — just dressed in sequins.
Le King has ditched traditional paylines in favour of a cluster pays setup on a 6×5 grid. You’ll need a cluster of five or more matching symbols horizontally or vertically to land a win. When a win hits, a cascade triggers, and the winning symbols (plus any extras of the same type) disappear. New symbols drop down and fill the empty spaces, meaning a single spin can trigger multiple cascades.
Bets range from 10p to £100 per spin, although bets in the UK are capped at £5 due to UKGC laws. The RTP is 96.14%, above the industry average for online slot games. It’s a medium volatility slot, so expect a fair run of steady hits with the occasional larger payout. If you manage to push things all the way, the maximum win is a substantial 20,000x the bet.
Le King trades ancient temples and dusty tombs for neon signage and Elvis paraphernalia. This time, the scheming raccoon is working the Vegas strip as a hip-shaking impersonator, complete with sunglasses and plenty of attitude. The backdrop is pure casino glow, with saturated pink and purple neon lights, and that slightly tacky energy only a slot set in “Spin City” could pull off.
The 6×5 grid sits dead centre, flanked by jackpots displayed on the left as a reminder of what’s up for grabs.
Symbols
The lower-value symbols are the familiar card suits 10, J, Q, K, and A. Hit 12 or more in a cluster awards between 0.5x and 1x. Higher-paying symbols dial up the Vegas theme — watermelons, dice, microphones, poker chips, and roulette wheels — with winning clusters awarding 3x to 25x.
It wouldn’t be a Hacksaw Gaming slot without a string of extras. The Wild has the word “WILD” stamped across it, happy to substitute for any regular symbol. Scatters have the “FS”, stamped across it and three or more will trigger the Bonus Game. The Neon Rainbow is the one to watch. When it lands, it triggers the Golden Squares, turning winning symbols into Bronze, Silver, or Gold Coins worth between 0.2x and 500x. From there, Clover Symbols can appear, multiplying coins by 2x to 20x, while Treasure Pots sweep through to collect everything on the grid in one foul swoop.
Features
Le King doesn’t hold back on extras. It boasts six bonus features plus a cluster of buy-in options if you’d rather pay up and skip the slow dance. Between the Golden Squares, Jackpot of Gold, Viva Le Bandit, and a few other surprises, there’s plenty going on.
Cascades
When a cluster win occurs, a cascade is triggered. Winning symbols vanish, and new symbols drop down. If this creates another winning cluster, the process continues until no new clusters form. Alongside the payouts, the Cascades also set the stage for Golden Squares — they’re generated from the cleared winning symbols and come into play for bigger prizes.
Golden Squares
After a winning cluster, the positions behind the symbols transform into Golden Squares. If a Neon Rainbow symbol lands after a cascade, those Golden Squares reveal prizes.
Golden Squares reveal Coins, Treasure Pots, Clover symbols (Green and gold), or Jackpot Markers. There are three types of Coins:
✅ Bronze: Awards 0.2x to 4x the bet
✅ Silver: Awards 5x to 20x
✅ Gold: Awards25x to 500x
After the reveals, Clovers trigger.
✅ Green Clovers boost the value of all Coins and Pots adjacent with multipliers of 2x to 20x.
✅ Gold Clovers multiply all Coins and Pots on screen by the same range of multipliers.
Next, the Treasure Pots trigger and collect the values of all Coins and Pots on the screen, running top to bottom, left to right, except any Jackpot Markers. When the final pot triggers, any inactive Golden Squares spring to life, revealing new symbols, and the round triggers again.
When everything’s revealed, the final payout is tallied up and multiplied by your bet.
Jackpot Markers
Jackpot Markers throw in the big payouts. They either land on the grid or are revealed through a Golden Square. Jackpot Markers have jackpot tags attached: Mini, Major, Mega, and Max Win, awarding 10x, 100x, 1,000x, or 20,000x the bet.
If a Jackpot Marker lands on the reels, it needs a Neon Rainbow symbol to kick it into gear — only then will it award its prize. On the flip side, if it’s revealed from a Golden Square, it pays automatically once all Coins and Treasure Pots have done their thing.
Worth noting, you’ll never see more than one of each Jackpot type at the same time. But you could easily walk away with four separate jackpots, kapow!
Spin City
Landing 3 Scatters during the base game triggers Spin City, awarding 10 free spins. It functions similarly to the base game, featuring the same Golden Squares and Neon Rainbows. However, any active Golden Squares remain locked until a Neon Rainbow drops in and triggers them.
Jackpot of Gold
Landing 4 Scatters triggers Jackpot of Gold, awarding 10 free spins. This feature builds on Spin City with locked Golden Squares. Once triggered by the Neon Rainbow symbol, they remain locked on the grid and do not disappear.
Viva Le Bandit! Hidden Epic Bonus
Landing 5 Scatters triggers Viva Le Bandit! awarding 10 free spins. This round plays by Jackpot of Gold rules, but with a guaranteed Neon Rainbow symbol on every spin. Only Silver or Gold Coins appear when the Golden Squares are triggered.
Free Spin Retriggers
During any bonus round, landing additional Scatters awards extra free spins. 2 Scatters award +2 extra spins, 3 Scatters award +4, and so on.
Feature Buy
If waiting around for Scatters isn’t your style, Le King has a Feature Buy menu:
3x your bet – BonusHunt FeatureSpins – Every spin is five times more likely to land a bonus. It runs with medium volatility and an RTP of 96.13%.
60x – Shamrock & Roll FeatureSpins, guarantees at least one Neon Rainbow on every spin. This also features medium volatility, but slightly increases the RTP to 96.31%.
80x – Triggers Spin City, with medium variance and an RTP of 96.33% or 96.31%, depending on the version.
250x – Triggers the Jackpot of Gold feature with medium variance and an RTP of 96.36%.
Verdict
Hacksaw Gaming’s cheeky raccoon has ditched cobblestones and longboats for a Vegas romp with a more inviting max win. Le King sticks with a winning formula, with the exception of a new theme and max win of 20,000x, putting the jackpots front and centre.
Anyone familiar with the series will feel right at home. The cascading clusters, bonus layers, and playful visuals remain intact, dressed up in the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas. It’s straightforward with a brisk tempo and doesn’t overcomplicate a system that already works.
The combination of Coins, Clovers, and Treasure Pots is enough with or without jackpots, but they are a great addition to the series. Le King is not a reinvention; that was never the goal. It’s simply another slick chapter in a series with a proven formula that knows how to entertain.
