Correction, 10 October 2026. An earlier version of this article said Gates of Olympus 1000 launched at SA operators in May 2026. Pragmatic Play released the game on 14 December 2023. We have rewritten the article as an explainer. Details are on our corrections page.
Pragmatic Play released Gates of Olympus 1000 on 14 December 2023, as a sequel to the 2021 original. In the launch announcement, Pragmatic's chief operating officer Irina Cornides said the sequel "massively boosts its win potential, introducing a mighty 15,000x max win."
What stays the same
- The 6x5 grid and the tumbling wins mechanic.
- Zeus can add random multipliers in the base game and in free spins.
- Four or more scatters trigger the free spins.

Our take
The higher ceiling makes the free spins swingier, not better value. A 15,000x win is a rare event that most players will never see. If you liked the original, the sequel plays the same with bigger peaks and the same long dry spells. Try it free first on our Gates of Olympus 1000 demo page.
