Evoplay, the award-winning game development studio, has launched Mega Greatest Catch: Blue Marlin, bringing the fearless fisherman Harry back to sea for his most exciting adventure yet.

The latest instalment transports players to bright turquoise waters, where random scatters can trigger free spins, wilds appear unexpectedly, and the scatter respin feature offers a welcome second chance to enter the round. These mechanics keep the action lively and the gameplay continuously evolving.

Free spins start when three, four, or five bonus symbols appear, awarding ten, fifteen, or twenty spins. An enhanced super free spins mode increases volatility and improves the chances of hitting the rare x2000 Fish, raising the possibility of high-value wins and adding a sharper feeling of progress to the feature.

If only two bonus symbols land, the respin bonus shifts those reels down by one position while the others spin again, providing another chance to reach the feature.

During free spins, the Fishing mechanic becomes fully active. Any wild that appears with Fish symbols will add its value to the total win. As the round continues, every fourth wild awards ten extra spins and upgrades the Fishing multiplier from x2 to x3 and then to x10, increasing excitement as the feature unfolds.

Momentum continues with the Dynamite feature, which activates after a losing spin when at least one wild appears but no Fish symbol lands. During these moments, several regular icons turn into Fish symbols. Conversely, when the Fish symbol appears without a wild, one non-winning position may turn into it, prolonging the round and offering another chance to win a prize.

With its colourful design and refined mechanics, Mega Greatest Catch: Blue Marlin brings fresh dynamism to one of Evoplay’s most recognisable series.

Ivan Kravchuk, CEO at Evoplay, said: “With Mega Greatest Catch: Blue Marlin, we wanted to build on what players already enjoy while making the journey feel even more rewarding.

“The new progression, the added surprises and the refined rhythm of the features all come together to give the game a warm, energetic feel that fits the series perfectly.”
