Playtech has been developing and adopting epic movies and plays into slot machines. Gladiator is a similar adaptation of a world classic movie that came out in 2001. The movie perfectly portrayed the life story of a gladiator, a warrior, and his ill-fated love story. This slot machine is a perfect tribute to the eponymous movie.
The slot game has 3 reels, 5 rows, and features 25 playlines. It is set against the backdrop of legendary Coliseum where gladiators fought for the supreme glory. The theme music is used beautifully in the game, and the symbols are characters of the movie itself.
