Pragmatic Play releases Mahjong Wins Triple Pot with 100,000x bonus prize
Pragmatic Play has launched Mahjong Wins Triple Pot, a new online slot release, the supplier said on 18th June 2026. The title introduces “golden reels” and bonus coin symbols with values of up to 100,000x.
The game uses a 4-5-5-5-4 grid with tumble mechanics. Pragmatic Play said consecutive tumble wins trigger a progressive multiplier trail that increases payouts by 2x, 3x and 5x until the end of the spin.
The supplier added that random symbols on reels 2-4 can be marked gold and then transform into a wild on the subsequent tumble if they form part of a winning combination.
Three scatter types (blue, red and purple) are collected into pots above the middle three reels and can randomly trigger a bonus with eight free spins. Pragmatic Play said the feature marks the full reel below in gold and can award an instant cash prize of up to 100,000x, with boosted multipliers during the bonus.
Pragmatic Play positioned the release as a follow-up to Mahjong Wins Super Scatter.
Sharon McHugh, Director of Public Relations at Pragmatic Play, said: “Mahjong Wins Triple Pot builds on the classic tile game theme with the chance to win up to 100,000x when triggering the bonus game. It is an exciting, golden addition to our portfolio inspired by the East Asian pastime.”
