Vikings Go Berzerk

The Norse warriors have returned for another battle on the slot from Yggdrasil Gaming. Vikings Go Berzerk is the second in the series coming from the Swedish studio that is taking you to the high seas with wild substitutions, Rage Meters for each warrior, two Treasure Chest bonuses and two Free Spin modes that can lead to wins of up to 4,000 times your bet.

Slot Details

Vikings Go Berzerk is a video slot with five reels, four rows and 25 fixed pay lines. Wins are awarded for three to five matching symbols on a line from left to right only. You can join the Norse warriors on desktop or mobile from 0.10 to 125 credits per spin. The game has medium to high volatility (49/100) with an RTP of 96.10%.

The Viking longship returns to the screen, this time with calmer waters at the start and mermaids conveying a relaxed atmosphere. But that won’t last long as the four Norse warriors appear meaner and more prepared than ever for their next battles. The graphics and animations are more refined while Rage Meters for each Viking have been added to the bottom of the reels. The soundtrack is similarly dramatic as on the first slot in the Viking series.

The pay symbols start at the low end with four coins in grey, bronze, silver and golden colours, awarding 1.6x to 2.8x your bet for a single five of a kind. The premiums are still the four Viking warriors with purple, green, red and blue backgrounds but with a meaner expression in their face. Hit five on a line to win 6x to 10x your stake. Since all symbols can appear fully stacked, you could be looking at a payout of up to 250x your bet on a single spin.

Vikings Go Berzerk Slot Features

Yggdrasil Gaming cranked up the stakes on their second slot in the Norse series. While Vikings Go Wild was a rather simple yet intense creation, this game has a ton more action and features as well as a top win potential that increased from 1,900x to 4,000x your bet. Accordingly, it is more volatile and thus provides even more intense gaming sessions.

The Treasure Chest makes a return, only that now there are two on the reels, each with a range of prizes. The standard Treasure Chest can land on reel 4 only while the Golden Treasure Chest can land on reel 5. Both can appear in the base game and Free Spins features to present you with five choices from which you can pick one.

• Base Game | Standard Chest
• random coin win between 2x and 40x your bet or
• 7, 14 or 21 free spins
• Base Game | Golden Chest
• random coin win between 10x and 400x your bet or
• 7, 14 or 21 free spins
• Ragnarök Free Spins
• Rage Boost
• Free Spins | Standard Chest
  
• random coin win between 2x and 40x your bet or
• 2, 3 or 4 extra free spins or
• sticky wild reel (one per trigger)
• 1 or 2 extra sticky wilds
• Free Spins | Golden Chest
  
• random coin win between 10x and 400x your bet or
• 2, 3 or 4 extra free spins or
• sticky wild reel (one per trigger)
• 2 extra sticky wilds

New on Vikings Go Berzerk are the Rage Meters at the bottom of the game window. The first time you load the slot, one of the four Vikings will receive a 50% Rage boost. Any win with the Viking symbols will gradually fill the respective meter, which will be saved between sessions. Once a meter is filled up, you will get 7 Free Spins with the triggering Viking in Berzerk Mode throughout the feature. In Berzerk Mode, the active Viking will always defeat the Siren and turn subsequently into a sticky wild for all remaining free spins. The feature cannot be retriggered but the Treasure Chest bonuses can reveal extra free spins.

Hitting three, four or five scatters anywhere on the reels will trigger 7, 14 and 21 Free Spins respectively. Alternatively, they can be triggered via the Treasure Chest bonuses. Before the start of the feature, a horizontal reel with extras will appear and spin once to award one of the extras. On offer are:

• Feature Upgrade: The round is upgraded to Ragnarök Free Spins where all Vikings are permanently in Berzerk Mode
• Extra Free Spins: Awards 1, 2 or 3 additional free spins
• Starting Wild: One sticky wild is placed on a random position
• Wild Reel: One random reel turns wild for the entire feature
• Extra Chests: 5 standard and 5 Golden Chests are added to the respective reel, increasing the chance to land one during the feature

Once the feature starts, any Viking landing on a free spin will battle the Siren. Defeating the creature will turn the respective Viking into a sticky wild for the remainder of the round. Filling the screen with sticky wilds will pay 250x your bet on each following free spin. The Treasure Chests can land on top of a wild and award the prizes accordingly.

Final Verdict

Vikings Go Berzerk is a clear evolution from its sibling Vikings Go Wild. It is more volatile, has more feature and higher win potential. Just right for any reel warrior ready to join the Norse fighters in their battle against the Siren. Well worth a few spins in any slotting session.
