Justice League
Gardner Fox’s Justice League is about to get a video pokie version, thanks to the good people of NextGen.
Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and other members of the team will once again join forces in Metropolis to defeat the villains that try to occupy the city and conquer the world.
The 2016 release is based on the original comic book, hence the comic-book graphics, with the pokie hovering above the City of Metropolis.
Even though the pokie is yet to be released, we do believe that Justice League will be packed with action, with seven super heroes displaying their super powers against evil forces as you spin the reels.
Developer
NextGen Gaming decided to follow the steps of Microgaming and Playtech and start offering franchised pokies by making an agreement with DC Comics. Justice League pokie is only one of them, since they will soon release Batman, Green Lantern and the Flash.
The company was founded in 1999, with headquarters in London and operational offices in Sydney and Stockholm. The producers of 300 Shields, Doctor Love and Medusa became a part of NYX Gaming Group and merged with NYX Interactive in 2011.
How To Play It
We managed to find out that Justice League will be a standard 5-row pokie with 25 fixed paylines. The NextGen title will pay from left to right, with three of a kind being the minimum for landing payouts. We expect up to 100 automatic spins in Autoplay if you decide to sit back and enjoy the action.
As in other NextGen products, we reckon that you will be able to alter the coin value, which will probably go from $0.01 to $2, meaning that the minimum wager will be $0.25, while the maximum bet should be $50.
When it comes to symbols populating the reels, the original team of superheroes will join forces once again, so you will witness the super powers of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, the Flash and Green Lantern, while the seventh member will be either Martian Manhunter or the Cyborg.
Daily Planet symbol will function as a Scatter, and we will also have a Wild symbol, but it is still to be revealed what symbol will represent it. What we do know for a fact is that there won’t be any playing cards symbols in this pokie.

Special Features
Wild symbols will appear on reels 2, 3 and 4, substituting for all symbols except scatters. When it comes to superheroes, they will appear stacked on reel 1, giving you more opportunities for landing payouts.
If you manage to create a winning combination with the stacked symbol and a Wild symbol, you will be immediately awarded with Superhero re-spins. Reel 5 becomes a stacked reel bearing the identical symbol as reel 1, and re-spins continue as long as you land symbols that form winning combinations.
Daily Planet Scatters also appear on reels 2, 3 and 4.
Once you get all three of them on the reels, you will be awarded with 10 freebies, while a Superhero Spins Meter should appear on the right. Superhero Spins come after you finish free spins, and you can win up to 5 Superhero Spins, which depends on the number of Wilds you manage to land during the freebies.
Free Spins can be retriggered at any time, or you can be awarded with additional free spins if a mysterious Spacecraft hovers over the reels.
Once the freebies are finished, the Superhero Spins start. Reels 1 and 5 are stacked with identical symbols, making opportunities for hefty payouts.
While the mysterious Spacecraft can also award you with additional Superhero Spins, as well as multiply your winnings up to 10 times, provided you link the stacked symbols with the Wilds that appear on the reels.
Maximum Payouts
Since Superman is considered to be the leader of the Justice League team, he will be the highest paying symbol in this pokie, awarding gamers with 10x multiplier of the triggering bet.
Taking under consideration that you can win an additional 10x multiplier during Superhero Spins, in theory you can hit a 2,500 multiplier of the initial bet if you land a full screen of Superman symbols.
Summary
Obviously, this will not be the first pokie themed after DC Comics, but it has the potential of standing out from the crowd with a number of interesting and awarding features Justice League will have to offer.
So many superheroes guarantee plenty of action as they try to defend the Earth, so we will recommend you to join this group of superheroes, because you might end up winning lucrative payouts, thanks to re-spins, free spins and Superhero Spins.
Looking at the available screenshots, it seems that the NextGen product houses state-of-the-art graphics, and we do believe it will be accompanied with an outstanding soundtrack that will make your playtime more enjoyable.
