Pragmatic Play (Reel Kingdom) · Released February 2025
Bigger Bass Splash: Slot Machine by Pragmatic Play
A high-volatility fishing-themed slot machine from Reel Kingdom, published by Pragmatic Play, with a 96.50% maximum RTP and a 5,000x maximum win. This page covers Bigger Bass Splash, not the earlier "Big Bass Splash" title or the real-world Sealy Big Bass Splash fishing tournament.
What Is Bigger Bass Splash?
Bigger Bass Splash is a slot machine developed by Reel Kingdom, Pragmatic Play's in-house studio, released as an exclusive on 3 February 2025 with a wide release on 10 February 2025. It runs on a 5 reel, 4 row grid with 12 betways, built around an angling and lagoon theme with a tropical fisherman character, a boat symbol, and a splashing bass as a top-paying icon. The game is one entry in a wider Big Bass franchise from Reel Kingdom, and it should not be confused with the earlier release "Big Bass Splash," with "Big Bass Splash 1000," with "Big Bass Bonanza," or with the real-world Sealy Big Bass Splash fishing tournament, a bass-fishing competition series that has no connection to this video slot beyond a shared name fragment.
The theme leans into a bright, tropical lagoon setting: turquoise water, hibiscus flowers, a cooler box, and a fisherman wild character in a Hawaiian shirt sit alongside a splashing bass as a top-paying symbol. Lower-value symbols use a set of playing-card icons, a common design choice across Pragmatic Play's catalogue that keeps the base paytable easy to read at a glance. What sets Bigger Bass Splash apart from a purely decorative fishing skin is that the theme is tied directly to the mechanics: the money symbols that get collected by a landing wild are presented as catch values, and the free spins round is framed as an extended fishing trip where the money collect feature has more time to build.
How the Free Spins & Money Collect Feature Works
Landing 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols on a single spin triggers 10, 15, or 20 free spins. During both the base game and the free spins round, money symbols worth up to 5,000x your stake can appear on the reels alongside wild symbols. Whenever a wild lands, every money symbol currently showing is collected and added to your running total for that round. During free spins, every 4th wild that lands retriggers the feature with 10 more free spins, and the multiplier applied escalates with each retrigger: 2x on the first, 3x on the second, and 10x on the third. Up to five separate random modifiers, such as extra money symbols, extra wilds, or extra starting spins, can apply before the feature even begins, which is part of why individual sessions can vary so widely on a high-volatility title like this one.

Where Bigger Bass Splash Fits in Pragmatic Play's Catalogue
Reel Kingdom built its reputation on straightforward, mechanically transparent slots, and the Big Bass franchise, starting with the original Big Bass Splash, established the fishing theme as one of its most recognizable series. Bigger Bass Splash carries the same money collect concept forward on a larger 5x4 grid, alongside other franchise entries like Big Bass Splash 1000 and Big Bass Bonanza, each with their own grid sizes, RTP tiers, and maximum win figures. If you land here searching for one of those other titles, the numbers on this page are specific to Bigger Bass Splash and do not carry across the franchise.

Is Bigger Bass Splash Legal in the UK?
Yes, provided you play through an operator licensed by the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC). See our full Where to Play guide for how to verify a licence before you deposit.
A quick way to check whether an operator you're considering is properly licensed: look up the operator's licence number, usually shown in its site footer, against the public register at gamblingcommission.gov.uk rather than trusting an operator's own marketing claims. Being reachable from a UK IP address does not by itself mean an operator is legally licensed to serve UK players.
Bigger Bass Splash vs. Big Bass Splash and Other Big Bass Games
This page is about Bigger Bass Splash, released by Reel Kingdom for Pragmatic Play in February 2025. It is a distinct title from "Big Bass Splash," an earlier Reel Kingdom release with its own mechanics and its own maximum win figure, and it is also distinct from "Big Bass Splash 1000" and "Big Bass Bonanza," other entries in the wider Big Bass franchise with different RTP, grid layouts, and bonus structures. None of the RTP, max win, or volatility figures on this page apply to those other titles, and none of them should be assumed to be interchangeable. Separately, the "Sealy Big Bass Splash" is a real-world competitive bass fishing tournament series, entirely unrelated to this video slot beyond the coincidental name overlap. Read our full review for a deeper mechanical breakdown of Bigger Bass Splash.
This distinction matters because search results and operator lobbies for "Bigger Bass Splash" in the UK often blend results for these titles together. If a figure you see elsewhere, an RTP, a maximum win, or a bet range, does not match the numbers on this page, check which specific Big Bass title it is describing before assuming it applies to the game covered here.
Playing for Real Money
Ready to move past the demo? Our Real Money guide covers what changes once real currency is involved and how to budget for a high-volatility slot, and our Bonuses page explains the in-game free spins and money collect mechanics in more depth. Because Bigger Bass Splash is high volatility with a headline 5,000x maximum win, treat the base-game paytable as background and expect most of the variance in any given session to come from whether, and how many times, the free spins feature retriggers.
