Playtech has three video slots in its portfolio that are based on the epic blockbuster Gladiator. You can play these at online casinos like Omni Casino and Mansion Casino. All three video slots include similar symbols. In particular the high paying symbols are some of the lead characters from the movie. These include Emperor Commodus, Proximo and Lucilla. When winning combinations are hit on the reels with these symbols short clips from the movie are played.

The first slot game in the series was titled Gladiator. It includes two bonus features. The Coliseum symbol triggers up to 24 free spins with up to 3x multiplier and extra scatter and wild symbols. The exact parameters are fixed through picking objects on the screen. The Commodus symbol appearing on reel 3 adds three additional free spins. Three helmet symbols trigger the Gladiator bonus round. You have to pick nine helmets from. Each helmet will be of gold, silver or bronze and will award a bonus depending on the metal. A gamble feature can be activated after each win.

The second video slot in the series was called Gladiator Jackpot because it included a progressive jackpot. Landing three helmet symbols on the middle three reels as in the earlier slot game triggers the Gladiator bonus round. You again have to pick nine helmets on the second screen. If all nine are gold helmets then the progressive jackpot is hit. Otherwise you are paid the accumulated bonus value of the individual helmets. The progressive jackpot starts at $50,000. Since its launch, the average hit is about $1.27 million. The smallest win is $173,099 and the biggest win is a whopping $3,217,894. The progressive jackpot can be hit with a bet of any size, but larger bets give you a greater chance of hitting the progressive jackpot. Gladiator Jackpot has a free spins feature that is the same as in the first slot game of the series.

Playtech has added a third video slot to the Gladiator series titled Gladiator Road to Rome. This slot is networked to the same progressive jackpot of Gladiator Jackpot. It is hit in the same way through the Gladiator bonus game. But there are some new features. The expanded gladiator symbol awards the highest line payout. If you get a full gladiator on a reel it becomes a wild symbol. The free spins feature is triggered by three weapons symbols. You start with five free spins. But you can get three modifiers that may include more free spins, payout multipliers, Symbol Payout Boost, Extra Wild Symbol and more.
