5 pg soft slots entries are what this section covers. Where Pragmatic offers three configurations, PG Soft appears to offer one fixed configuration per game, and it publishes return-to-player for each title covered here. Where it falls short is display: the field on its own game pages is a blank dash, and the number is held in the data that builds the page.

Across 5 pages, a single entry gets covered at a time rather than being lumped with others. Wherever “not published” appears in a field above, the page for that entry explains whose place it was to publish the value.
Each entry in a paragraph
A short outline of each is all it takes to pick the right page to open.
Mahjong Ways 2 explained
A 5-reel ways-to-win slot on 5 reels and 4 rows, 2,000 ways to win, having risen from the original’s 1,024, released 2020. Built around a medium volatility label combined with a published maximum of 100,000x, which is rare.
Published figures give 96.95% for RTP and 100000x for the maximum win, along with a medium volatility description.
Lucky Neko, in detail
A 6-reel ways-to-win slot on 6 reels and 5 rows, a maximum of 32,400 ways to win, built on 40 base paylines that widen to 85 in the free spins round, released 2021. Built around blocks of symbols up to 6x6 in size that stretch across the whole grid and count as one symbol.
With a published RTP of 96.73% and a 100000x maximum win, it is described as having medium volatility.
Wild Bounty Showdown explained
Winning is by ways, 3,000 of them, across 6 reels with 3-4-5-5-4-3 rows, in a slot released in 2022. Built around a diamond of symbols, three high at each edge and rising to five in the middle.
A maximum win of 5000x and published RTP of 96.75%, with a high volatility description.
Mahjong Ways in full
Released in 2019, this 5-reel ways-to-win slot runs on 5 reels and 4 rows with 1,024 ways to win. Built around a multiplier during free spins that goes up on each cascade and never drops back until the round ends.
Medium volatility is the description, with a published RTP of 96.92% and a maximum win of 25000x.
The Fortune Ox entry
It is a 3-reel slot that came out in 2021, using 3 reels, 3-4-3 rows and 10 paylines. Built around a grid laid out 3-4-3, so the reel in the middle carries an extra row compared with the outside pair.
A maximum win of 2000x and a published RTP of 96.75% come with a medium volatility description.
The thing most often got wrong here
The proper wording for a figure here is “per PG Soft’s published game data”; “as shown on PG Soft’s page” is incorrect. A visit to the official page reveals a dash rather than an RTP.
A match with consensus on the same title held for every figure, so they are real and the data is very likely current instead of stale. The claim that PG Soft’s page shows the number is easy for a reader to disprove in one click, so a site is better off not quoting the figure.
See what the game itself says about pg soft slots details
To check a PG Soft figure you take one step beyond what a Pragmatic figure needs, since the visible page lacks it:
- Get to the title’s listing through pgsoft.com and open it. Because the RTP field renders as a dash, which is expected, these pages word it as “published game data” rather than “shown on the page”.
- Look up two independent aggregators and see how their figure stacks up against this one. The test this site applied was agreement across both; passing it confirmed the underlying data as real and current.
- The grid shape should agree with the way-count, so check it. The paytable is misstated by any flat “reels by rows” description of an irregular title, and several are irregular here: Fortune Ox runs 3-4-3, Wild Bounty Showdown 3-4-5-5-4-3.
- Treasures of Aztec’s maximum win remains unsettled, and should be handled that way. The maximum exposure in PG Soft’s own data is 100,000x, yet independent simulation gives a practical maximum near 9,071x; they could be measuring different things.

FAQ
Will you find RTP listed on PG Soft's website?
In the data that comes from the server with each game page the figure is present; the visible field just renders as a blank dash. On screen you will not see the number, but it does come from the studio.
Can a PG Soft title have more than one RTP configuration, as with Pragmatic?
Evidence of that was absent for every title here. Each looks to ship with one fixed number; quoting PG Soft's RTP is therefore a more direct statement about the game than quoting Pragmatic's.
Are these titles available at JL3?
Look in the Slots tab of the JL3 lobby for the title you are after. Wherever you play, the figures hold, as each page here repeats the game's description exactly as the studio issues it.
How do Mahjong Ways and Mahjong Ways 2 compare?
A published maximum of 100,000x replaces 25,000x, the cascade becomes an avalanche, and the way-count rises from 1,024 almost to double, at 2,000. How rarely the extra headroom is reached is what pays for it, since the RTP only goes from 96.92% to 96.95%.
Why is the maximum win field empty for Treasures of Aztec?
Since PG Soft's own data field gives 100,000x, yet independent simulation of the game's mathematics suggests a practical maximum near 9,071x. They could differ in what they measure, with a certified ceiling in one case and a modelled outcome in the other, so selecting either misrepresents the other.
Where a medium-volatility game advertises a 100,000x maximum win, how is that figure meant to be read?
Most often, that the top amount is a cap for accounting, and not a realistic result. When a game is labelled medium volatility, results tend to cluster, and a 100,000x ceiling lies a long way outside that cluster. It is possible for both to be true, and between them the label is more useful.
