The jungle comes to life once more with Primate King Megaways, a sequel to Red Tiger's original Primate King. While this time around, fishing rods are swapped for dangerous treks through the undergrowth. The gameplay remains packed with evolving wilds and gold coin collections. For fans of the original release, you'll notice the new Megaways mechanics have been added to amp up the tension.
Set across 6 reels, with up to 117,649 possible paylines, Primate King Megaways sticks to the Megaways format. Reels can hold anywhere between 2 and 7 symbols at a time, with cascading wins that make every spin loaded with potential. For the first part of the game, you’ll be playing with 5 reels, but progress through the game’s evolution mechanic, and that sixth reel opens up, adding to the action.
For fans of Red Tiger’s other releases, Primate King Megaways feels like a natural next step. From the original Primate King to slots like Gonzo’s Quest Megaways, the studio loves to blend detailed graphics with evolving game mechanics. Here, the experience is both dynamic and packed with progression, keeping the gameplay interesting.

Apart from the paytable there is also the Primate Wild to account for. This is a fully stacked wild symbol that can appear on reels 2, 3, 4, or 5. When it lands, it can have a multiplier from x2 to x7, depending on its size. If it doesn’t form part of a winning combination, it locks onto the reel, staying in place until it creates a win. Each win with a Primate Wild increases the multiplier for future spins.
Gold Coins that appear on the reels are collected into the Primate Evolution bar. As you collect coins, you unlock additional features:
Stage 1: Adds a life point to the Primate Wild, allowing it to stay on the reels for an extra spin after a win.
Stage 2: Adds another life point and removes the lowest-paying symbol from the game (the number 9).
Stage 3: Unlocks the 6th reel and adds more life points to the Primate Wild, boosting its power and keeping it on the reels longer.
Once all three stages are complete, the 6th reel is permanently unlocked.
The Free Spins feature is triggered when you land a Gold Coin on the newly unlocked 6th reel while the Primate Wild is active. This awards four free spins, with additional spins given for each remaining life point on the Primate Wild. During the Free Spins round, lower-paying symbols may be removed, further increasing the potential for big wins.
