International Game Technology announced today that its IGT PlayCasino game, MegaJackpots Siberian Storm, awarded a lucky Sky Vegas online slot player a colossal £1,769,014 jackpot on April 3, 2022. The equivalent of $2.3 million, this is the largest jackpot ever awarded on IGT’s MegaJackpots online progressive link in the UK.
“A player winning a massive £1.7 million jackpot on IGT PlayCasino’s MegaJackpots Siberian Storm game is a reason to celebrate, as few online games offer such a compelling top prize,” said Gil Rotem, IGT president of igaming. “The IGT PlayCasino content portfolio is fortified with jackpot-driven games that quickly amass liquidity and can help our customers such as Sky Vegas differentiate their online casinos.”
Prior to this jackpot, the largest award ever won on an IGT MegaJackpots game in the U.K. was a £1.4 million jackpot in 2019 on the MegaJackpots Isle O’ Plenty game.
