3 Oaks Gaming has joined some of the biggest online casino software providers in the industry by announcing that the brand will now feature a networked progressive jackpot system.

In the announcement, 3 Oaks also touted its first online slot to feature its new Must Drop JACKPOT™ system – Hot Fire Fruits. To clarify, this is not a new slot game release; instead, it is the first game in the software provider’s collection to feature its brand-new Must Drop Jackpot.

Hot Fire Fruits was initially released in late 2024 as a classic 3×3 and 5-line slot with a fruit theme. Its latest version is now available at online casinos, and you can also test out the demo version with the Must Drop JACKPOT™ included directly at 3 Oaks Gaming – Must Drop Jackpot Hot Fire Fruits demo.

All new games added to the pooled jackpot system will come with a single jackpot, which will payout up to four times per day.

The idea is that each jackpot will rise within pre-set time intervals.

As with most ‘must drop’ jackpots, if the current amount being displayed hasn’t been paid out by the time the time window is up, the jackpot is guaranteed to drop in on any lucky players currently spinning on the slot as soon as the countdown hits zero.

How Much Will the New Must Drop JACKPOT™ Pay?

We don’t know the size of the jackpots that the progressive jackpot will payout for each interval. We will have to wait and see how popular the network becomes. Across the board, we are seeing popular BetSoft standalone slots paying out up to £/€500,000 at some online casinos, which is significantly higher than the usual £/€50,000 to £/€100,000 jackpot payouts we’ve seen in the past.

At a guess, with Must Drop JACKPOT™ paying at least 4 times per day, I would venture as far as to say £/€1,000 up to £/€10,000 jackpot wins. However, we’ll keep a close eye on it. If we see any substantial jackpot wins coming from the new 3 Oaks Gaming network, we’ll report via our progressive jackpot casino games news in the Casino Games News section.

Katarzyna Pysz, Head of Gamification at 3 Oaks Gaming, said: “Introducing Must Drop JACKPOT™ to the industry is an exciting move that brings a new way of experiencing one of the casino industry’s most popular features“.

He continued to say that: “Our jackpot promotional feature differs from existing options available on the market. By integrating the mechanic within the gameplay on a network basis, operators can seamlessly offer the game and fixed jackpot prize. It has already brought a new dimension to our Hot Fire Fruits release, and we’re looking forward to showcasing more titles from the series in due course.”
