Hyper Casino, a recently launched online casino owned by L & L Europe, has announced that a lucky Swedish player recently won an amount of close to 27 million Krona wagering on the NetEnt Mega Fortune Progressive video slot game at the site.

The player’s huge win on the progressive video slot game equates to a massive amount of £2,158,785 or a whopping €2.5 million.

L & L Europe has sent a notification to their affiliate partners stressing the fact that this progressive win on the Mega Fortune video slot is the first such win in a regulated Swedish Market. The win has also resulted in the lucky progressive jackpot winner being the first winner of a progressive jackpot whilst wagering on a NetEnt game in the Scandinavian country as it was only at the end of last year that the Spelinspektionen (also known as the Swedish Gambling Authority) began awarding licenses to online casinos.

The five reel, 3 row and 25 pay line Mega Fortune is a progressive slot game although, despite this super-sized win that was recently hit, is regarded by NetEnt as a low variance (low volatility) slot game.

The Mega Fortune slot has a Free Spins feature and a Mega Fortune Bonus game that could see players become millionaires. The biggest ever online jackpot on the slot game was an amount of €17.8 million that was won in January of 2013.

The progressive jackpot on the game is usually well over €2 million and is linked between casinos which host this slot.
