Gates of Olympus 2500 Pokie – Free Demo and Real Money Play
Gates of Olympus 2500 is Pragmatic Play's biggest version yet of its Zeus pokie. It came out on 28 September 2026 with multipliers up to x2,500, a top win of 25,000x the stake, and a bonus round that can play out four different ways. You can spin it free in demo mode on this page and switch to real money in NZD at 20Bet whenever you like.
The 2500 in 60 Seconds

- Winning symbols tumble away and new ones drop in, so one spin can pay more than once.
- Zeus drops multiplier symbols worth from x2 up to x2,500.
- 4 or more scatters award 15 free spins. A wheel then picks one of four bonus modes.
- RTP up to 96.52%, high volatility, stakes from 0.20 to 240 per spin.
- Max win: 25,000x your stake.
How Multipliers Pay: Two Worked Examples
Multipliers are the heart of this pokie, and the easiest way to understand them is to see a few spins. In the base game, every multiplier on the grid stays there until the tumbles finish. The values are then added together, not multiplied, and applied to the total win for that spin.
Example 1: a typical spin
Eight red gems land and pay 1x. A x10 and a x5 multiplier are also on the grid. They add up to x15, so the spin pays 15x your stake.
Example 2: hitting the cap
Twelve crowns land and pay 50x. Zeus drops a x500 and a x25. Together they make x525, and 50 × 525 = 26,250x. That's above the limit, so the win is capped at 25,000x. This is also why the maximum win is possible in the base game, not only in the bonus.
The catch: if the grid doesn't form a win, any multipliers that landed on that spin pay nothing. The free spins modes described below handle this differently.
Symbols and Payouts
| Symbol | 8–9 | 10–11 | 12+ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crown | 10x | 25x | 50x |
| Hourglass | 2.5x | 10x | 25x |
| Ring | 2x | 5x | 15x |
| Chalice | 1.5x | 2x | 12x |
| Red gem | 1x | 1.5x | 10x |
| Purple gem | 0.8x | 1.2x | 8x |
| Yellow gem | 0.5x | 1x | 5x |
| Green gem | 0.4x | 0.9x | 4x |
| Blue gem | 0.25x | 0.75x | 2x |
Scatters pay 3x for 4, 5x for 5 and 100x for 6 or more, on top of triggering the free spins.
Free Spins: What the Wheel Can Give You
Every free spins round starts with 15 spins, and landing 3 scatters during the round adds 5 more. Throughout the bonus, multipliers feed a total multiplier that stays for the whole round. The wheel decides how that total builds:
- Free Spins 1: the original rules. A multiplier only joins the total if it lands on a winning spin.
- Free Spins 2: the new rule. Every multiplier joins the total the moment it lands, win or no win, and the total boosts every win after that.
- Super Free Spins 1: original rules, but no multiplier is worth less than x10.
- Super Free Spins 2: the new rule plus the x10 minimum. This is the best mode in the game.
Here's why the new rule matters. Say a x250 lands on a free spin with no win. In Free Spins 1, it's gone. In Free Spins 2, it adds x250 to your total, and every later win in the round is multiplied by that larger total.
Buying Your Way In
If you'd rather skip the wait, you can buy any mode directly, where bonus buys are available on your account:
| Bonus | Price |
|---|---|
| Free Spins 1 | 100x stake |
| Free Spins 2 | 250x stake |
| Super Free Spins 1 | 500x stake |
| Super Free Spins 2 | 1,250x stake |
There are also special bets that raise the cost of each spin. Ante Bet 1 (1.25x) doubles your chance of free spins. Ante Bet 2 (2.75x) makes them 8 times more likely. Ante Bet 3 (5.5x) does the same and removes Free Spins 1 from the wheel. Super Spin 1 (20x) guarantees a multiplier on every spin, and Super Spin 2 (250x) guarantees one worth at least x25. Free spins can't trigger during Super Spins.
RTP and Volatility
Pragmatic Play offers this pokie at 96.52%, 95.50% or 94.50% RTP. The version in use is shown in the game info. Volatility is high. About 28 in every 100 spins return something, but the bonus arrives on average once every 443 base spins, and a win of 1,000x or more happens roughly once in 36,459 spins. The 25,000x top prize averages about 1 in 13.5 million spins.
How It Stacks Up Against Gates of Olympus 1000
The 1000 raised the top multiplier from x500 to x1,000 and the max win from 5,000x to 15,000x, with everything else unchanged. The 2500 goes further on both, to x2,500 and 25,000x. More importantly, it also changes the bonus: four modes instead of one, a rule that stops multipliers being wasted, and Super Spins. If you liked the 1000, you'll recognise the base game straight away.
Demo Tips Before You Play for Real
- Play at least 200–300 demo spins to get a feel for how quiet the base game can be.
- Buy Free Spins 1 and Free Spins 2 a few times each in demo and compare how the total multiplier grows.
- Try Ante Bet 2 and see whether the extra cost per spin fits the budget you'd use for real.
