NetEnt, one of the biggest names in the online gambling industry, has revealed plans to add a new title to its existing selection of Starburst pokies. Starburst Galaxy slot game will go live on 26 November 2024.

Keeping in mind the importance of the Starburst name for fans of slot games, it’s reasonable to assume we’ll be in for a rollercoaster of excitement.

The original was a game-changer

When NetEnt launched its Starburst pokie back in 2012, no one could have guessed it would acquire a cult status among slot lovers.

A shiny theme featuring space and jewels, low volatility and a handful of symbols captivated players in New Zealand and around the world, remaining popular to this day.

Nine years after the original game hit the market, NetEnt rolled out Starburst XXXtreme. It kept the same 5×3 layout but cut down the number of paylines from 10 to 9. However, in addition to high volatility, the follow-up offered massive multipliers and a staggering top payout of 200,000x.

The more, the merrier

The third instalment in the Starburst series, titled Starburst Galaxy, is scheduled to go live on 26 November, and although scarce, available information reveals certain changes from the previous releases.

The theme has stayed the same, with a familiar symbol design that features jewels and classic icons like sevens and BARs. On the other hand, you’ll immediately notice a new 5×5 grid setup, although it still remains to be seen whether it will use paylines, winning ways, or some other mechanics.

NetEnt hasn’t revealed the available extras, although screenshots suggest we’ll once again see multipliers in action. More info should be available as the launch date approaches.

NetEnt pokies are very popular among fans of online casino gaming in NZ. The Swedish company has an extensive portfolio with more than 370 titles, including over 250 slots.
