November 2017 – Yggdrasil’s progressive jackpot Empire Fortune has paid out another significant jackpot over the weekend, with one lucky player scooping €1.12m.
The 32-year old Norwegian won the prize pool while playing on Betsson’s mobile site late on Saturday evening.
All of Yggdrasil’s progressive jackpots have been paid out on the mobile channel this year, with the pool’s slots proving very popular with players on the smaller screen. 
This latest jackpot follows the €5.2m prize paid out on the same slot in July, which still stands as the current pool record, as well as the €3.5m jackpot on Joker Millions, Empire Fortune’s pool partner, last month.
Fredrik Elmqvist, CEO at Yggdrasil Gaming, said: “Our jackpot pools have been very generous of late and it’s great to see one of our players winning a life-changing sum of money on Empire Fortune.
“Our progressive jackpots have now paid out almost €10m in their last three drops, but with their popularity, I’ve no doubt there’ll be paying out big winsagain soon.”
Andy BroughtonBraithwaite, Director of Games at Betsson, said: “Yggdrasil’s games are perfectly tailored towards our players who love the combination of life changing Jackpots and innovative gameplay.”
Empire Fortune shares its progressive jackpot pool with the popular Yggdrasil title Joker Millions.
