Big Bass Boxing Bonus Round

Big Bass Boxing Bonus Round is a Reel Kingdom slot published by Pragmatic Play on June 9, 2025, the entry that moves the Big Bass fisherman into a boxing ring. On the surface it is the usual 5×3, 10-payline machine with a stated 96.50% RTP, medium volatility, and a 5,000x win cap; underneath, it makes one meaningful structural change: there are now two fishermen, and they compete.

Fish money symbols carry values from 2x through 500x up to 5,000x the total bet. The base game teases in familiar ways, with scatter respins and a hook that can pull a reel up to reveal a missing scatter. Stakes run from 0.10 to 375 per spin.

Two Wilds, Two Meters

Landing 3, 4, or 5 scatters awards 15, 20, or 25 free spins, the most generous trigger in the series. The round stars two boxer fishermen: blue and red wild symbols that both collect every fish value on screen, but are banked on separate meters by color. Every 4th wild of a given color retriggers the feature with 10 extra spins and raises that color’s collection multiplier through 2x, 3x, and 10x, and each meter caps independently after its fourth level. Between spins, a knockout animation can wipe and replace every non-wild symbol, a hook can drag wilds in when fish are missing, and a camera flash can conjure fresh fish.

Ante Bet and Buy Options

The Ante Bet at a 15x bet multiplier adds scatters and raises the natural trigger chance while disabling purchases. Buying costs 100x the total bet for the regular round, or 300x for Super Free Spins, where only 3 wilds of any color are needed to retrigger instead of 4 on a single meter. All modes state the same 96.50% RTP.

Between the Rounds

The presentation earns a note of its own. The reels hang over a floodlit ring, the two fishermen glower from the corners in blue and red trunks, and the bonus is staged as an actual bout, with the knockout animation doubling as the board-clearing feature. It is the furthest the series has strayed from open water, yet the fish still swim through the symbols, which gives the game a knowingly absurd tone the franchise had not tried before. Functionally, the theme also does real work: color-coding the meters keeps the two collection tracks readable at a glance even in fast rounds.

Big Bass Boxing Bonus Round Review

The two-meter system sounds like a gimmick and plays like a genuine redesign. Splitting collections by color means progress toward the 10x multiplier is slower per meter, but two ladders climb at once, and the 15-spin base trigger with fish up to 5,000x gives rounds real length and real targets. Compared with Big Bass Bonanza 1000 and its all-or-nothing fish table, Boxing spreads its value across steadier collections, and the 300x super buy’s relaxed retrigger rule is one of the smartest purchases in the series. Beneath the gloves and crowd noise, this is the most mechanically fresh mainline entry since Splash.
