Pragmatic Play unveils Big Bass Football Bonanza with team-based bonus feature

Pragmatic Play has launched Big Bass Football Bonanza, the latest installment in its Big Bass slot franchise, introducing a football-themed title ahead of the world's largest international football tournament.

The 5x3 video slot places the series' fisherman character in a soccer stadium setting and introduces a teammate as part of the game's design.

The game awards a bonus round when players land three to five trophy scatter symbols, triggering 15 to 25 free spins. During the feature, wild symbols are divided into red and blue teams, with each side collecting money symbols worth up to 5,000x.

Wilds are accumulated separately for each team. Every fourth wild collected on either side awards 10 additional free spins. Retriggers also apply multipliers of 2x, 3x, and 10x for the first, second, and third retrigger, respectively.

Additional feature interactions occur when wilds appear without money symbols or when money symbols appear without wilds. In those instances, paying symbols may be randomly converted into wilds or cash prizes.

The release arrives just over two weeks before the start of the world's biggest football tournament, with the supplier incorporating football-related themes into the latest entry in the Big Bass portfolio.

Big Bass Football Bonanza follows recent releases Big Bass Trophy Catch and Big Bass Raceday Repeat, adding another theme to the long-running series.

"Big Bass Football Bonanza has been designed to capture the electric atmosphere surrounding the world's most-watched football tournament,” said Sharon McHugh, Director of Public Relations at Pragmatic Play. “From the stadium-inspired setting to the football-themed symbols, the game delivers an entertaining twist on the popular Big Bass formula."
