Mega Roulette is a variation of the classic European Roulette game, offering an exciting experience with extra opportunities for big wins. While the game keeps the familiar feel of traditional Roulette, it adds the variability of one to five random “Mega Lucky Numbers”.  These lucky numbers give you the chance to win up to 500x your bet on a straight up bet!

Objective of the Game

The goal of Mega Roulette is simple: predict the number where the ball will land. You can place one or more bets on different numbers, and you win if the ball lands on a number you’ve bet on. The payout you receive depends on the type of bet you place.

If your straight-up bet covers one of the Mega Lucky Numbers,  you'll receive a special payout called the “MEGAWIN.”

Types of Bets in Mega Roulette

There are many ways to bet in Mega Roulette, each with its own odds and payouts. Bets are divided into two main categories: Inside Bets and Outside Bets.

Inside Bets

Inside bets are placed on individual numbers or small groups of numbers. Here are the common Inside Bets:

Straight Up Bet

Place your chips directly on any single number (including zero). This bet covers just that one number, and the payout is higher due to the risk involved.

Split Bet

Place your chips on the line between two adjacent numbers (e.g., 0/2, 16/17). This bet covers both numbers and gives you the chance to win if either one hits. 

Street Bet

Place your chips at the lower end of any row of numbers. This bet covers three numbers in that row (e.g., 7, 8, 9). You can also place a Street Bet at the junction of 0, 1, and 2, or 0, 2, and 3.  Pays 11:1.

Corner Bet

Place your chips where four numbers meet, covering all four numbers (e.g., 5, 6, 8, 9). A Corner Bet can also be placed at the junction of 0, 1, 2, and 3..

Six Line Bet

Place your chips on the T-shaped line that crosses between two adjacent rows. This bet covers six numbers in total (e.g., 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9).

Outside Bets

Outside bets are placed on the special betting areas outside the numbered grid. These bets offer a greater chance of winning but with lower payouts.

Column Bet

Place your chips in one of the three boxes labeled "2:1" at the end of any column. This bet covers all twelve numbers in that column, but it does not cover the zero.

Dozen Bet

Place your chips in one of the three boxes labeled "1st 12," "2nd 12," or "3rd 12." This bet covers twelve numbers in each sequence from 1 to 36, excluding the zero.

Even Chances

Place your chips in one of the six boxes covering even-money bets: Red/Black, Even/Odd, Low (1-18), or High (19-36). These bets cover 18 numbers each, but like other outside bets, they do not include the zero.

Theoretical RTP and Payouts

The theoretical Return to Player (RTP) for Mega Roulette varies depending on the type of bet you place:

  • Straight Up Bets: RTP of 97.50%
  • All Other Bets: RTP of 97.30%

The payouts depend on the placed bet type.

The Mega Conclusion

Mega Roulette compensates fairly well for a Roulette variant when it comes to standard straight up bet wins and the Mega Wins are fairly decent.  It's the least volatile Roulette variant that Pragmatic Play Live offers.  However, if one wants to play Mega Roulette like it is a regular roulette table, there's absolutely nothing stopping them from doing so.  The hosts are charming enough to talk to between each spin and they are trained Game Show Hosts, so it can be an easy breezy game for any player.
