How Relax Gaming’s Dream Drop Hit 21 Mega Winners — and Why It Feels Different in 2025

Relax Gaming’s Dream Drop network kicked off 2025 with a familiar headline: another Mega Jackpot win, this time worth €2.9 million. It came from a €0.30 spin on Money Train Origins Dream Drop, making it the network’s 21st Mega overall—and the first ever in Hungary.

But the jackpot itself is just part of the story. Since launching in 2022, Dream Drop has grown from a simple progressive feature into one of the most varied, high-frequency jackpot ecosystems on the market. And in 2025, it’s evolving again.

Daily Jackpots Are Reshaping the Experience

The biggest structural shift this year is the rollout of Daily Jackpots, now formally the sixth Dream Drop tier. These guaranteed prizes fall three times a day, during fixed 8-hour windows: 22:00–06:00, 06:00–14:00, and 14:00–22:00 UTC. The first drop each day starts at €700, while the next two build on contributions from earlier rounds.

The feature debuted in Bonsai Dragon Blitz Dream Drop, and it returns in Groovy Knights Dream Drop, launching June 25. In that game, a top row can randomly spell the word DREAM, triggering a jackpot instantly—even before the spin resolves. It’s a small addition, but one that pushes Dream Drop further toward event-style engagement, with more frequent action that doesn’t rely on chasing the Mega.

A Broader Spectrum of Volatility

Dream Drop slots now cover a wide range of win profiles. Some cap out below 1,000x—like The Great Pigsby Dream Drop—offering casual sessions with steady payouts. Others, like Cluster Tumble or Dead Man’s Trail, stretch up to 20,000x or even 30,000x. At the upper limit sits Space Miners Dream Drop, offering a maximum of 50,000x.

These tiers let players choose how much volatility they want—without losing access to the progressive jackpots. All games still contribute a standard 12% of the bet to the jackpot pool and most keep the RTP steady at around 94%.

Jackpot Entry Has Grown More Creative

In early Dream Drop titles like Temple Tumble 2, triggering the jackpot was straightforward: land six DD symbols on a single spin to activate the bonus. That format is still in use, but newer games are exploring other paths.

• Bill & Coin Dream Drop features a rotating coin track where jackpots can trigger during re-spins.
• Space Attacks Dream Drop reveals prizes via exploding jackpot planets.
• Hypernova Infinity Reels uses expanding reels with a win ladder mechanic.
• Gears of Eternia blends Megaways-style reel height upgrades into a symbol-based feature system.

These aren’t just reskins—they offer distinct mechanical flavours, making each game feel meaningfully different even while sharing the same jackpot pool.

More Studios, More Spins, More Momentum

Dream Drop is no longer built solely in-house. Relax Gaming has opened the format to its Silver Bullet partner studios, including ReelPlay (Hypernova IR DD), Four Leaf Gaming (Temple Rush, Gears of Eternia), and Print Studios (Hellcatraz 2).

This expansion has helped diversify the catalogue and increase the total number of jackpot-qualified spins across the network. More spins mean faster jackpot cycles, especially at the lower tiers. And with minimum bets often set at €0.20, the network remains accessible to casual players while still offering headroom for bigger stakes.

The Numbers Behind the Network

Since its launch in May 2022, Dream Drop has awarded more than €220 million in total winnings to over 9 million players. That includes 231 players who’ve won over €1 million, and 214 Major Jackpot winners.

The most recent Mega fell on May 30, 2025 at 16:22 UTC, for €1,500,105.86. And thanks to a revised system, these big jackpots now follow a clear pattern. The Mega is guaranteed to fall before €1 million for the first two wins, then increases by €500,000 every two jackpots. This “must-fall” level eventually caps at €2 million—adding a sense of timing and predictability to a prize that once felt entirely random.

Final Thoughts

In just two years, Dream Drop has gone from a clever progressive add-on to a full-featured jackpot ecosystem. Daily drops, a more transparent Mega structure, diverse mechanics, and consistent payouts have made it one of the most reliable—and most engaging—jackpot formats in the market.

Whether you’re spinning for coins, collecting chests, or chasing wild symbols across Infinity Reels, every Dream Drop title now offers something distinct. And with more releases lined up, the wait for Mega win number 22 might not be long at all.
