Mighty Wild™: Gorilla Unleashed – Wazdan Scales New Heights in Jungle Series
Wazdan, the “gain-focused” developer, has officially announced the launch of Mighty Wild
: Gorilla, the latest high-octane installment in its award-winning jungle series. Released on January 7, 2026, this title brings a new level of mechanical complexity to the franchise, featuring a 16-reel grid and dual bonus paths designed for maximum player retention.
To celebrate the launch, Wazdan has also demonstrated its commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) by sponsoring three gorillas at Opole Zoo in Poland, providing real-world support for conservation efforts alongside the game’s digital debut.
Engineering the Jungle: 16 Reels and Dual Bonuses
Mighty Wild
: Gorilla moves away from traditional slot layouts, utilizing a 16-reel independent grid where every position spins as its own reel. This structure is optimized for the game’s core collection and jackpot mechanics.
1. The Collector System
The game’s standout feature is the Collector symbol, which appears on the top row and fundamentally alters the base game’s reward structure.
-
Sticky Persistence: Collector symbols can remain active for up to 10 spins, continuously gathering all Cash and Jackpot values that land on the reels below.
-
Multiplier Boost: All accumulated values are subject to a random multiplier of up to 10x.
-
Collect to Infinity
: During the Free Spins round, the countdown limitation is removed, allowing Collectors to stay active for the entire duration of the bonus.
2. Two Paths to the Grand Jackpot
Players can trigger two distinct bonus environments, both offering a path to the 2,500x Grand Jackpot:
-
Hold the Jackpot
: The signature Wazdan bonus played on the full 16-position grid. It features three respins that reset with every new symbol, including Cash, Cash Infinity
, and various Jackpot symbols. -
Free Spins: In this mode, the focus shifts to the persistent Collector symbols, which accumulate prizes throughout the round without resetting, creating massive win momentum.
| Feature | Technical Specification |
| Grid Layout | 16 Independent Reels |
| RTP | 96.20% |
| Max Win | 2,500x |
| Volatility | Customisable (Volatility Levels ) |
| Release Date | January 7, 2026 |
Wazdan’s Customisable Edge
As with all flagship Wazdan titles, Mighty Wild
: Gorilla includes the developer’s suite of Customisable Features, allowing players to tailor the math model to their personal preference:
-
Volatility Levels
: Choose between Low, Standard, or High volatility on the fly. -
Cash Out Feature: Offers a way to secure instant rewards during the base game before the bonus rounds are triggered.
-
Chance Level
: Allows players to increase their stake for a higher probability of entering the bonus rounds.
“Mighty Wild
: Gorilla showcases our commitment to refining feature-driven gameplay that rewards both precision and persistence,” said Andrzej Hyla, Chief Commercial Officer at Wazdan. “This release is a testament to the depth and quality we continue to bring to the series as it soars to new heights.”
