Gates of Hades

About Gates of Hades

Gates of Hades is a Greek underworld slot from Pragmatic Play, distributed through Light & Wonder. This 2025 release is built on a 6x6 grid with a cluster-pays mechanic, so it does not use paylines. Wins form when five or more matching symbols land anywhere on the grid, and a Tumble feature then clears the winning symbols to let new ones drop in, which can chain several wins from a single spin.

It sits in Pragmatic's "Gates of" family alongside Gates of Olympus, with the underworld theme giving it a darker tone. The standout feature is the Multiplier Wild, worth up to 100x in the base game and up to 500x in the bonus. At Midnite the RTP is 95.47% and the maximum win is 10,000x your stake. Volatility is very high, with the larger results concentrated in the free spins where multipliers accumulate.

How to Play Gates of Hades

Set your stake and spin the 6x6 grid. Five or more matching symbols anywhere form a win, those symbols clear in the Tumble, and new ones drop into the gaps, continuing while fresh wins keep landing. Multiplier Wilds can land during any tumble and apply their value to the win. Stakes at Midnite start from £0.01 per spin, though the standard Pragmatic minimum for this game is £0.20, which is noted in the flags.

The free spins are the main event. Land four or more Hades Scatters and you trigger 15 free spins. During the round, every Multiplier Wild that lands adds its value to a running total that does not reset, so the multiplier builds across the whole feature and applies to wins as it grows. This accumulating multiplier is where the bigger results and the route to the 10,000x top win sit.

Gates of Hades Theme and Symbols

The setting is the Greek underworld, with Hades presiding over a dark, fiery backdrop in place of the brighter Olympus of the sister title. The mood is heavier, built around flame effects and a brooding colour palette.

The symbols are coloured gems and Greek icons, with Hades himself as the Scatter that opens the free spins. The Multiplier Wild is the symbol that shapes a result, since its value drives both the base-game tumbles and the accumulating multiplier in the bonus.
