NetEnt is releasing Gonzo’s Quest 2 on September 25, 2025, as a sequel to the iconic original, first launched in 2013. The game returns players to a lush South American setting with updated visuals and an enhanced play area that builds on the classic mechanics.
Avalanche mechanic
Gonzo’s Quest 2 features a variable grid size from 6×4 to 6×8, providing between 4,096 and 262,144 ways to win. The game retains the avalanche mechanic, where winning symbols explode and are replaced, and each consecutive avalanche increases the win multiplier up to 5x in the base game.
Expanding reels add new rows after each avalanche, up to a maximum of eight rows per spin. Bets range from 30 cents to 30 dollars or euros per spin, with a maximum RTP of 96.06% and high volatility gameplay.
Interesting elements
Free spins and super free spins feature multiplier trails that reset or carry over, depending on the bonus. Players can also purchase features like guaranteed scatters, calamity wilds, and full bonus rounds through the elevate menu, with costs up to 1,000x the bet.
The slot includes low-paying Aztec-patterned symbols and six high-paying icons from the original. Wilds appear as both regular and calamity wild types, the latter triggering random wilds and reel expansion. Colossal symbols up to 4×4 can land, counting as multiple symbols, and may transform into wilds.
