Zeus vs Hades — Gods of War

The headline figure is 96.

07%. Pragmatic Play also certifies 95. 05% and 94. 05% builds and each operator decides which to load, so the same game can pay back two points less at one casino than another.

Olympus is rated high volatility: the bonus triggers more readily and average wins are smaller.

Hades is rated very high: fewer triggers, bigger outcomes when they land. You can switch freely between spins, but once a bonus round starts the mode is locked for its entire duration, so the choice you make on the triggering spin is the one you live with.

It depends on how long you intend to play.

Olympus suits shorter sessions and smaller bankrolls because you will see the feature more often. Hades suits players specifically hunting the top end. Pragmatic's own published odds show the difference: the 15,000x cap comes up around 1 in 1,335,113 spins in Hades against 1 in 1,766,784 in Olympus.

When a wild lands and completes a winning combination it expands to fill its entire reel and is assigned a random multiplier from x2 up to x100, which applies to the wins it takes part in.

In the base game it pays and then vanishes. In the free spins it sticks: the reel stays wild and the multiplier value stays attached for the remainder of the round.

Land three scatters on the same spin and you receive 10 free spins in whichever mode was active at that moment.

There is no retrigger, so the round is exactly ten spins long. Because sticky wilds accumulate throughout, the value of the round is decided far more by when your first wilds land than by anything that happens on spin ten.

Because the wilds stick.

Every expanding wild that lands stays on its reel with its multiplier for the rest of the feature, so the round compounds quickly. A longer bonus with the same mechanic would push the maths well past the 15,000x cap. Ten spins with sticky x100 wilds is a very different proposition from ten ordinary free spins.

15,000x your stake.

Pragmatic publishes the win cap hit rate for both modes: roughly 1 in 1,335,113 spins in Hades mode and 1 in 1,766,784 in Olympus mode. Those figures are worth knowing precisely because they are rarely disclosed — they tell you the ceiling is a genuine lottery outcome rather than a session goal.

75x your stake buys the Olympus bonus, 150x buys the Hades bonus, and 300x buys the Enhanced version, which guarantees one sticky expanding wild from the start.

The Enhanced option removes the worst case, a bonus where no wild ever lands, which is exactly what makes ten spins feel wasted. Buys are unavailable on the UK market.

Card ranks make up the low tier in both modes.

Above them come a ceremonial goblet, a helmet and a temple, then mode-specific premiums: the eagle and Pegasus on the Olympus side, the hounds of Hades on the underworld side. Zeus and Hades are the top symbols of their respective modes. Exact payouts are in the in-game paytable and change with the mode you select.

They share a pantheon and nothing else.

Gates of Olympus is a pay anywhere grid with tumbling wins and multiplier orbs, and rewards patience within a long tumble sequence. Zeus vs Hades is a fixed-payline game where a single expanding wild can carry a x100 multiplier. If you like watching a bonus build, Gates fits better; if you want fewer, larger events, this one does.

Zeus vs Hades — Gods of War 250 keeps the 5x5 grid and 15 fixed paylines but raises the expanding wild multiplier ceiling from x100 to x250 and the maximum win from 15,000x to 25,000x, on a 96.

56% headline RTP with 95. 54% and 94. 53% builds also in circulation. Same idea, harsher distribution. The original stays the more forgiving entry point.

Zeus vs Hades accepts stakes from 0.

10 EUR to 100 EUR per spin. If you plan to use the buy menu, note that costs scale with your spin value: at a 1 EUR spin an Olympus bonus costs 75 EUR, a Hades bonus 150 EUR and the Enhanced version 300 EUR. Casinos may also cap stakes while bonus funds are being wagered.
