Let’s Get Ready To Rumble! slot review (Relax Gaming)

“Let’s Get Ready To Rumble!” It’s legendary boxing announcer Michael Buffer’s signature phrase

It’s his signature way of getting the excited spectators all wild and ready for the big boxing bout in the massive arena.

As soon as you hear those magic words through the microphone, you know: the fight is about to start. Time to sit down and, above all, enjoy and go crazy!

The atmosphere is great, lively and intense. Relax Gaming managed to grasp this perfectly. The spectators, the exciting music and even the way the reels are moving.

If you’re not a boxing fan, you will become one. Your adrenaline level will increase, no doubt.

In the blue corner, we have Tommy “Two-Times” Johnson and Dirk “the Destroyer” Wiseau in the red corner. Together they will fight it out in the ring. One thing is sure: there is only room for one winner.

Relax Gaming has created an amusing video slot that is all about boxing, knock-outs, uppercuts and of course, the famous words “Let’s get ready to rumble!”.

Gameplay and features of the Let’s Get Ready To Rumble video slot

The base game of Let’s Get Ready To Rumble has 6 reels with 4 rows of symbols.

You make winning combinations from left to right, as long as identical symbols touch each other.

In the base game, there are 466 possible combinations. Relax Gaming calls these “connected ways.” As a result, there are no real paylines nor win all ways (Megaways). It is more a blend of the two.

You can start betting from $€ 0.10 per spin, and you can bet up to a maximum of $€ 100 per spin.

What are the theoretical RTP, the variance and the maximum win of the Let’s Get Ready To Rumble video slot?

The theoretical payout rate is 96.14%. It is average, maybe slightly above average. Not spectacular. Over the longer run, you lose $€3.86 for every $€100 you have staked.

The maximum win amounts to 2,389 x the bet, which you can bag in the Free Spins feature.

Our feeling is that the variance of this video slot is medium. We see that the top prizes can go as far as 500x the total bet when you enter the lucrative free spins stage. Wins above that are possible, but that would be an absolute miracle.

Symbols and payouts – of course, these are devoted to the boxing sport

All symbols are dedicated to the noble boxing sport.

Star announcer Michael Buffer is the highest paying symbol: you get paid out 4 x the total bet if you get a 6-of-a-kind.

The two boxing heroes (the red and blue coloured) and the bald referee follow with 1.40 x the bet if you get 6 of them.

All other symbols (including the red boxing gloves, a microphone and a Championship belt) are worth between 0.5 x and 0.8 x the bet if you manage to spin 6 connecting ones.

These payouts may seem very low, but remember that you have 466 possible ways to win. Imagine a full screen of Michael Buffers and/or wilds. Your win is then: 466 multiplied by 4 = 1854 x your stake.

Feature 1: Sticky Respin

This feature activates at any time after a winning spin. The winning symbols will remain in place, and you will receive a free respin with all the winning symbols remaining.

The free spins will continue as long as you get more of those winning symbols.

Feature 2: Extra stacked wilds

In this feature, between 2 and 5 Stacked Wilds appear, presented as boxing punching heavy bags, on the reels.

Feature 3: Rumble Spin

The Rumble Spin can be extremely lucrative.

It is a special spin in which extra wilds appear on the reels.

It is also possible that the playing field expands to 6 reels and 8 rows, with a total of 1,436 connected ways!

In summary:

Upper Cut: Stacked wilds appear on the rightmost reel.

Wild Hook: You get a stacked game on reel 2 or 3.

Cross Wilds: extra wilds appear on any position (3-5 pieces)

Title Fight: the playing field enlarges to 6 reels of 8 rows

The Cross Wild feature can be activated several times per Rumble Spin.

Our verdict on the Let’s Get Ready To Rumble video slot

Let’s Get Ready To Rumble is another entertaining and exciting Relax Gaming slot. It is by no means an ordinary slot.

The exciting music, the characteristic voice of Michael Buffer and the special features: it provides a lot of fun and sometimes a lot of prizes.

Sometimes you need to be patient, though, before the Rumble Spin is activated.

All in all, we had a great time.

4 out of 5 stars.
