Overview
The Rise of Olympus series is a collection of Greek mythology slots from Swedish provider Play’n GO. The first game, Rise of Olympus, is a 5×5 grid slot released in August 2018. It uses the same cascade format as Play’n GO’s Reactoonz and Sweet Alchemy.
What sets this series apart is that Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades appear as “playable” gods, each with a different power. Play’n GO’s CEO at the time, Johan Törnqvist, said that “if you take on Greek mythology that everyone knows, you have to do it right,” and that the team put a lot of work into the character design. AI Slot has all 4 games in the series.

The Three Gods’ Powers
Based on the release introduction for the 2022 game Rise of Olympus 100, the gods use the following powers when you fill their gauge with god symbols.
| God | Power | Extra spin when the grid is cleared |
|---|---|---|
| Zeus | Removes two types of symbols from the screen | 8 spins |
| Poseidon | Adds 1 to 2 wilds to the screen | 5 times |
| Hades | Changes one type of symbol into another symbol | 4 times |
A win forms when 3 or more matching symbols connect vertically or horizontally, and the round multiplier goes up by 1 with each consecutive win. In the 100 version, this multiplier is capped at 100x, and the multiplier does not reset during free spins.
What Changed in Each Game
Origins (2024)
Origins, released on July 25, 2024, tells the story of the transition from the age of the Titans to the age of the Olympian gods. Instead of the earlier round multiplier, a “Power Indicator” now strengthens the gods’ powers, and clearing the entire grid awards 10 free spins. It was built with Unreal Engine.
1000 (2026)
The February 2026 game is the first in the series to use a 6×5 scatter pays layout. 8 or more matching symbols win anywhere on the screen, and crest symbols activate energy orb multipliers. The multiplier climbs through 15 levels up to a maximum of 1,000x, and the collected multiplier carries over to the next cascade. Play’n GO explained that in this game the three gods are portrayed as allies joining forces rather than rivals.
Gates of Olympus from Pragmatic Play has a similar name, but it is a separate series from a different provider.
