The enhanced version of Evolution’s mega-popular Lightning Roulette announced earlier this year, called the Xxxtreme Lightning Roulette, is now live. It comes jam-packed with more and bigger multipliers that constantly come up in both familiar and new fashion. The high-risk factor can boost the odds by a factor of 2,000x and produce winnings up to €500,000, which is a significant increase from the 500x in the good old Lighting Roulette. Xxxtreme Lightning Roulette will be made available at more and more Evolution casinos since yesterday, 11 May 2022.
The studio setting of this new live roulette game is similar to the original edition with a few extras that emphasise the x-factor. The game uses a motorised single zero European wheel with the numbers 1-36 plus a single zero. As to be expected, the Xxxtreme roulette is hosted by a charismatic live dealer while the UX is conveniently equipped with the chat, stats, special bets, history and the rest of the tools usually found in Evolution live roulette tables. Betting limits are 0.20 to 20,000 and players can also use the autoplay option.
Xxxtreme Lightning Roulette is a high-paced live game with only 20 seconds between rounds. When the bets are placed, the game will enter the Lightning Round and pick up to 5 lucky numbers which get a special multiplier boost. They are also known as the Lightning Numbers, and these can get a boost anywhere from 50x to 500x. It doesn’t stop there because, in the Xxxtreme version, there is an additional surprise factor in the form of a Chain Lightning. It can double the number of lucky numbers to a maximum of 10! Moreover, there is also a new Red Lightning element that can boost the chosen multipliers to extreme values between 600x and 2,000x. As a result, there are overweight multipliers of 100x and beyond regularly on the table, bringing that much more volatility to the occasion.
Some other important things to keep in mind. Straight up payouts are reduced to 20x versus 30x in the Lightning Roulette and 36x in the standard European roulette. Split bets don’t qualify for the special multiplier and will pay 17:1. The same applies to Street bets that pay 11:1. Both Corner 8:1 and Line bets pay 5:1. Column and Dozen type bets pay 2:1, the Red/Black, Even/Odd and straight-up numbers pay 1:1. The house edge or RTP of this game with straight-up bets is 97.3%, which is the same as before. However, it’s a bit lower at 97.12% for straight-up bets.
