Starburst Slot Celebrates 10 Year Birthday

NetEnt’s Starburst slot is one of the most iconic games of recent times. Amazingly, the title is now celebrating its 10th birthday and it is still being played by slot fans around the world who are drawn to its bright design and rewarding features.

According to NetEnt, in the last two and a half years alone the slot has been spun 18 billion times. The game has been updated several times over the years, but it has always retained the same features, such as its expanding wilds and bidirectional paylines, and the same iconic design, with the jewel symbols shining in space.

Many online casinos offer new players free spins on Starburst and considering that some versions of the game have an RTP value as high as 99.06%, it can be a hugely rewarding experience.

Last year, NetEnt released a sequel game, Starburst XXXtreme. It retained all of the most popular features of the original slot together with a number of new features, such as higher volatility, that are designed to provide players with even more excitement and greater win potential. The sequel also introduced XXXtreme Spins, a purchasable bonus feature that guarantees the presence of Starburst Wilds when it is activated.

To celebrate ten years since the launch of Starburst slot, NetEnt threw the game a birthday party complete with live music, Starburst themed photo booths, a birthday cake, and even astronaut performers. The party brought together game creators and operators to celebrate their achievement and look forward to the next decade.

The event was an incredible way of celebrating Starburst’s™ 10-year anniversary. A decade long run for a single slot game is an incredible achievement, and it’s been a top favourite with players ever since it was first launched. From the looks of things, that’s going to keep going, and going, and going. Starburst™ is the full package – an exciting, classic game that entertains you right from the start. I can’t wait to see what the next decade brings.
