Developers of online slots love to use comic book themes and movie themes. For that reason, they really love to use themes of movies that were based on comic books. That means a built-in audience before the game is ever even played. So it’s no surprise that Playtech, which has a contract with Marvel Entertainment, is releasing an Iron Man 2 slot.

The first Iron Man movie was a surprising success, grossing over $318 million in the U.S. The bigger surprise is that the movie was actually good. Robert Downey, Jr. was charismatic, as usual, and fun to watch, as usual, and the script was decent enough that it didn’t take anything away from Downey’s character. I never saw the second movie and heard it wasn’t very good, though I do really want to see Scarlet Johansson in that catsuit.

I haven’t played the new Iron Man 2 slot, since it has not been launched yet for play, but it is reportedly ready to go at Playtech casinos. The game features symbols directly from the movie, so you will see photo still of the stars in their superhero costumes.

When the symbols are used in a winning combination, they become animated. Yes, that means you get to watch Scarlet Johansson as the Black Widow move. Yum…The game will feature bonuses of up to ten free spins as well as a multiplier bonus. On the free spins, you start with the winnings being doubled, but the multiplier increases by one on each spin.

The Iron Man 2 slot has a randomly triggered progressive jackpot. It is linked to the other slots in the Marvel Jackpot Network. There are four different levels of jackpots available: Power Jackpot, Extra Power Jackpot, Super Power Jackpot and Ultimate Power Jackpot.

The online slot, which will be available soon, has five reels and 25 paylines. Check your favorite Playtech online casinos for the game.
