Somebody somewhere is celebrating after becoming an instant millionaire yesterday! In our latest weekly progressive jackpot report, you will learn of this latest winner and the current status of all the other major progressive jackpot networks and slots.

To kick things off this week, we can report on the first big win since the MegaJackpots (IGT) paid out £1.7 million a few weeks back. This time, the lucky winner walked away with €3,278,616 from NetEnt’s popular jackpot slot, Mega Fortune.

Now, all we know is that this win was paid yesterday evening (depending on your timezone). We have no idea which casino this happened or any other news as of yet. It has left us wondering if the winner went in to work today, as I am sure I would be taking the day off (sorry team).

We have been saying that this slot was worth playing for weeks now. It was well overdue, as it had gone close to 200 days since its last payout. That was for €2,607,600 back at the start of October last year.

As for the remaining jackpots, everything is still up for grabs. By reading this report and looking at the accompanying table, you will see which progressive jackpot network and slots are at a point where you should avoid them or start playing. We track their totals, average payout frequencies, average payout sums, and how long it was since they last paid out. We then give you a yes, no, or maybe as to whether we think you should play them at the moment.

The Mega Fortune jackpot slot is responsible for some previous epic wins. The biggest of these was an €11,736,228 win back in 2013, while this slot also paid out €11,735,446 two years before that. In recent years, the jackpots have been a lot smaller on average, must like the one won yesterday.

The WowPot and Mega Moolah Growing Bigger and Bigger!

No jackpot win should be sniffed at but the amount won on the Mega Fortune slot this time around pales in comparison to what the next winners of Microgaming’s WowPot and Mega Moolah jackpots will win. The Mega Moolah is currently worth a staggering £11,785,058 while the WowPot is not far behind on £10,396,430. As you can see from our table, we recommend playing both right now. The same can be said for Playtech’s Jackpot Giant, which is currently worth €6,436,531. NetEnt’s Hall of Gods gets a maybe, while all other jackpot slots bar the MegaJackpots are well worth playing right now.

The weekend is the perfect opportunity to play and win big: Somebody has to win these jackpots, and what better way to spend some time on the weekend than spinning the reels of slots that could turn you into an instant millionaire?
