Age of the Gods Bonus Roulette is a Playtech Live roulette table with a single zero plus an extra Bonus pocket, so the wheel has 38 pockets. Standard bets pay the usual roulette odds, a separate Bonus bet opens a three-spin slot round worth up to 300x when the ball lands in the Bonus pocket, and four progressive Age of the Gods jackpots can drop at random on any spin. The extra pocket gives standard bets a 5.26% house edge, double the 2.70% of a normal European wheel.
Playtech launched the game network-wide on 13 August 2020, and it was still on regulator approval lists in 2026. This guide, updated in October 2026, covers the rules, a full payout and odds table, how the bonus slot and jackpots work, what the extra pocket costs you, and where US players can and cannot find the table.

How the Game Works
The table looks like European roulette with one addition. Next to the zero sits a purple Age of the Gods betting area that matches a Bonus pocket on the wheel. Each round runs in four steps:
- Betting. A timer counts down while you place chips on numbers, outside bets, the racetrack or the Bonus area.
- The spin. The dealer spins the wheel and launches the ball. It can land on any of the 38 pockets.
- Settlement. If the ball lands on a number or zero, bets settle at standard roulette odds. If it lands in the Bonus pocket, every standard bet loses and anyone who backed the Bonus area enters the bonus slot.
- Jackpot check. Separately from the result, a mystery trigger can award one of the four progressive jackpots on any spin.
The Bonus pocket is the price of the feature. It plays the same role as the double zero on an American wheel: a pocket that no standard bet covers. That is why the base game returns 94.74% instead of the 97.30% you get on a single-zero table.
Interface features
The table carries Playtech’s usual live roulette tools. A racetrack lets you place the French call bets (Voisins du Zéro, Tiers du Cylindre, Orphelins) and neighbour bets around a chosen number. Favourite bets save a chip pattern so you can repeat it in one click, and final bets cover every number that ends in a chosen digit. Rebet and double buttons repeat or double the last round, and autoplay, where your casino’s regulator allows it, repeats a bet for a set number of rounds with a loss limit. Statistics show recent numbers and hot and cold pockets, which are a record of the past, not a guide to the next spin.
The racetrack call bets
The French call bets cover sections of the single-zero wheel with a fixed number of chips. They are convenient shortcuts, not special bets: each chip is an ordinary split, street or corner and pays at the normal odds.
| Call bet | Wheel section | Numbers covered | Chips |
|---|---|---|---|
| Voisins du Zéro | The 17 numbers between 22 and 25, around the zero | 17 | 9 |
| Tiers du Cylindre | The 12 numbers from 27 to 33 opposite the zero | 12 | 6 |
| Orphelins | The 8 numbers left over, in two arcs | 8 | 5 |
| Neighbours | A chosen number plus two on each side | 5 | 5 |
None of these bets covers the Bonus pocket, so each one loses when the ball lands there.
Payouts, Odds and House Edge
The standard bets pay exactly what they pay on any roulette table. What changes is the chance of winning, because every probability is out of 38 instead of 37. The table works out each bet.
| Bet | Numbers covered | Pays | Chance (38 pockets) | House edge |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Straight up | 1 | 35 to 1 | 2.63% | 5.26% |
| Split | 2 | 17 to 1 | 5.26% | 5.26% |
| Street | 3 | 11 to 1 | 7.89% | 5.26% |
| Corner | 4 | 8 to 1 | 10.53% | 5.26% |
| Six line | 6 | 5 to 1 | 15.79% | 5.26% |
| Dozen or column | 12 | 2 to 1 | 31.58% | 5.26% |
| Red/black, odd/even, 1-18/19-36 | 18 | 1 to 1 | 47.37% | 5.26% |
A worked example makes the edge concrete. Put $1 on each of the 38 possible outcomes in turn as a straight-up bet over 38 spins: on average one wins and returns $36, while $38 has been staked, so you keep $36 of every $38, or 94.74%. The same arithmetic gives 5.26% for every standard bet on the layout, identical to an American double-zero wheel. Some descriptions of the game also say that about 0.99% of each bet funds the progressive jackpots, so part of that edge comes back to players as jackpot wins rather than staying with the house.
How it compares with other roulette tables
| Table | Pockets | House edge on even-money bets |
|---|---|---|
| French roulette with La Partage | 37 | 1.35% |
| European roulette | 37 | 2.70% |
| Age of the Gods Bonus Roulette | 38 | 5.26% |
| American roulette | 38 | 5.26% |
The comparison is the most useful fact on this page. You pay American-wheel prices for a European-looking table, and in return you get the bonus slot and the jackpot draw. Our explainer on the house edge in roulette and our guide to types of roulette tables cover the cheaper wheels in more detail.
The Bonus Bet and the Slot Round
The Bonus bet is optional and sits in its own area of the layout. It wins only when the ball drops into the Bonus pocket, which happens on average once in 38 spins (2.63%). When it does, the game switches to a single-line slot featuring Age of the Gods characters, each representing a multiplier.
- Three spins. The slot round consists of three spins, and the results add up.
- Matching symbols pay. Three matching symbols on a spin award a multiplier of between 5x and 100x, according to Playtech’s launch announcement.
- Top result. Reported rules put the maximum for the whole bonus round at 300x your Bonus bet.
Only the Bonus bet is paid by the slot. A straight-up bet on 17, for example, simply loses when the ball lands in the Bonus pocket, even if you also had a Bonus bet that wins. Playtech does not publish a separate public RTP for the Bonus bet, so check the help screen in your casino’s version before you treat it as a regular part of your betting.
The Age of the Gods Progressive Jackpots
The jackpots are what link this table to Playtech’s slots. Four progressive prizes are shared across the Age of the Gods network, and Playtech says they can be won on any spin, even a losing one, through a mystery trigger. You do not need a special bet: placing a qualifying real-money bet is enough to be eligible. Descriptions of the network name the four levels Power, Extra Power, Super Power and Ultimate Power, with the Ultimate Power prize seeded in the six figures in pounds.
The idea goes back to the original Age of the Gods Live Roulette, which Playtech launched on 27 September 2017 from its new Riga studio. Playtech called it the first live casino product linked to its slot jackpot network, and said a bet365 player won £40,000 within hours of release. The Bonus version added the slot round three years later.
Jackpots change the shape of returns, not the direction. Most of the jackpot value goes to the occasional large winner, and the triggers are random, so no betting pattern makes a jackpot more likely beyond the size and number of qualifying bets your casino’s rules set out.
The Age of the Gods Live Range in 2026
Playtech has kept extending the theme. Its live casino page in October 2026 lists Age of the Gods Mega Fire Blaze Roulette, and Switzerland’s gaming regulator added “Mega Fire Blaze Age of the Gods Roulette Live” and a jackpot version to its register in April 2026. The Bonus Roulette remains a separate table, and both the Philippine regulator’s Playtech Live list of 16 July 2026 and the Swiss register of 1 October 2026 still include it.
| Game | Launched | What sets it apart |
|---|---|---|
| Age of the Gods Live Roulette | 27 September 2017 | Standard live roulette linked to the four-level jackpot network |
| Age of the Gods Bonus Roulette | 13 August 2020 | Bonus pocket and a three-spin slot round worth up to 300x, plus the jackpots |
| Age of the Gods Mega Fire Blaze Roulette | Approved in Switzerland April 2026 | Combines the theme with Playtech’s Mega Fire Blaze multiplier format |
Strategy: What Actually Helps
No system beats a fixed house edge. Martingale, Fibonacci and other progressions change how wins and losses bunch together, but every bet on this table still loses 5.26% of its value on average. A few choices do make a difference:
- Know the price. If you mainly play even-money bets, a European or French table costs you half or a quarter as much per spin. Play this table for the bonus and jackpots, not for the base game.
- Size the Bonus bet. It hits about once every 38 spins on average, and long dry runs are normal. A small Bonus bet beside your main bets keeps you in the game long enough to see the slot round.
- Ignore hot and cold numbers. The statistics panel records the past, and the wheel has no memory. Our list of roulette myths covers this and other costly beliefs.
- Use the racetrack for coverage, not edge. Call bets like Voisins du Zéro spread chips across a section of the wheel, but each chip still carries the same 5.26% edge.
- Set limits first. Decide a session budget and a stop point before the first spin; autoplay loss limits help.

Playing on Mobile
Playtech’s live client runs in the casino’s browser lobby or app on iOS and Android. In portrait mode the video sits at the top with a compact layout below, and the racetrack and favourite bets open as overlays. The bonus slot plays inside the same window. A stable connection matters: if your stream drops after betting closes, accepted bets are still settled on the actual result, and the casino’s game history shows every round.
Can US Players Play Age of the Gods Bonus Roulette?
Only through a state-licensed casino that carries it, and we could not confirm one. Eight states have legalised online casinos; seven markets are live (New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, West Virginia, Connecticut, Delaware and Rhode Island), and Maine legalised a tribal-only market (LD 1164: became law without the governor’s signature in January 2026, effective 29 July 2026) that has not launched as of October 2026. Playtech is one of the live suppliers in the regulated states: its live casino page lists dedicated studio space in Michigan, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, plus a Las Vegas operation run with MGM. Which Playtech tables each US casino carries is up to the casino and its regulator, so check the live roulette section of your state-licensed casino.
The offshore sites that accept Americans do not carry Playtech Live. Bovada, Ignition, MyBookie and BetOnline run live tables from VIG, Fresh Deck Studios and Gold Tier Gaming. They hold no US state licence, so there is no state regulator to complain to and your funds are not protected. Our ranking of the top live casino software providers shows which studios serve which markets.
