NetEnt's Mega Fortune Hit For €4.9 Million Jackpot

Betsson is one of the flagship online casinos powered by NetEnt software. The best paying progressive jackpot games can be played here and Mega Fortune is at the top of the list. A lucky player hit the winning combination as the jackpot was about to hit the psychological threshold of €5 million. For his performance, he was awarded a 45,000,000 kroner prize, the equivalent of €4.9 million.

Another Norwegian Becomes a Millionaire

Scandinavian players are known for their enthusiasm for progressive jackpot games. It is hardly a coincidence that so many Mega Fortune slot winners reside in one of the Nordic countries. This time, a Norwegian man walks away with a big amount. Earlier in 2016, a lucky player from the United Kingdom won €2.7 million playing the same popular progressive jackpot slot.

When asked about how he felt about winning the jackpot, the Norwegian confirmed the fact that he was taken by surprise. He initially thought that he’d won only a fraction of the real jackpot, no more than €4.9 thousand. Even so, he was quite enthusiastic about his achievement but was completely overwhelmed upon realizing that he was actually a millionaire.

An Inspiring Success Story for Slot Fans

Betsson chose not to reveal a great deal about the winner's identity. What we know is that this is a Norwegian in his 20s and he plans on using some of the money to build a house. After celebrating this newfound fortune, he plans to carry on regularly without making major changes. His achievement didn’t go unnoticed and Simon Hammon, Chief Product Officer at NetEnt was quick to congratulate him. This success story is going to encourage even more players to play the popular progressive jackpot games produced by the Scandinavian software developer. It's just a matter of time until some will claim a big payout.
