Introduction to Elvis Presley: Burning Jackpots
Elvis Presley: Burning Jackpots is a casino slot from Octoplay featuring one of the music industry’s biggest legends. Octoplay adds another edition to its branded Elvis portfolio, with previous titles such as Elvis Presley: Cash Is All Right and Elvis Presley: Viva Las Records. This game is a reskin of Cash Storm: Hold & Win, offering the same gameplay and mechanics, which means we’ve played this game before. However, if you appreciate the straightforward Jackpot and Cash Collect mechanics and want to pay tribute to Elvis, it might be worth your time. For us, it's simply too generic and not enough win potential to honor a legend.
Theme, Gameplay, & Payouts
Elvis Presley: Burning Jackpots is a video slot by Octoplay that features 3 reels, 3 rows, and 5 paylines. You can select bet sizes ranging from 0.1 to 400, with a default RTP of 95.74%. This game has low volatility and a hit frequency of 12.4%, offering potential wins of up to 2.250X your bet.
The game’s design is based on one of the most famous singers of all time, Elvis Presley. We get a 3x3 game grid in the middle of the screen, with a burning background. If you want to boost the gaming experience for a cost, activate the Feature Buy button. All other buttons, including the Spin and Bet Size, can be found below the reels. You can play Elvis Presley: Burning Jackpots on all mobile devices, desktops, and notepads. You create a winning combination by landing 3 of the same symbol types on adjacent reels starting at the leftmost reel.
The lower-paying symbols are cherries, lemons, oranges, and plums. Landing 3 of the same symbol type pays between 1X and 3X. The higher-paying symbols are stars, bells, 777, and a crown. Landing 3 of the same symbol type pays between 5X and 25X.
The game’s Wild Symbol has the text “Burning Wild,” and creating a win with 3 Wild Symbols pays 50X the bet. The Coin Symbol is a golden coin with values ranging from 1X to 10X the bet. It can also land as one of the game’s Jackpots with values up to 500X the bet, which can be collected by the Jackpot Elvis Collector. The regular Coin Symbols can be collected by the Cash Elvis Collector when it appears in the middle reel. There is no traditional Scatter Symbol in this game; instead, the Hold & Win can be triggered whenever a Coin or Cash Collector lands on each reel simultaneously. It can also be randomly triggered whenever a Coin Symbol lands in view during the Base Game. The same goes for the Jackpot Hold & Win, but instead of Coin Symbols, it can be triggered with Jackpot Symbols. Let’s find out what kind of features this game has to offer.

The Coin Symbol can land with values of 1X, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, 6X, 7X, 8X, or 10X the bet.
Whenever the Coin Symbol lands in view, it has a random chance of triggering the Hold & Win feature, which you can read more about later in the review. If the Hold & Win feature gets randomly triggered, symbols are added to the reels until there is at least one Coin Symbol on reels 1 and 3, and 1 Cash Collector on reel 2.
Jackpot Collect
This feature can trigger whenever Jackpot and Elvis Jackpot Collector Symbols land on the reels simultaneously. The Elvis Jackpot Collector can only land on the middle reel and will collect the values of all Jackpot Symbols in view.
The Jackpot Symbol can land as the Mini, Minor, Major, and Grand Jackpot, awarding 15X, 30X, 100X, or 500X the bet, respectively.
Whenever the Jackpot Symbol lands in view, it has a random chance of triggering the Jackpot Hold & Win feature, which you can read more about later in the review. If the Jackpot Hold & Win feature gets randomly triggered, symbols are added to the reels until there is at least one Jackpot Symbol on reels 1 and 3, and 1 Jackpot Collector on reel 2.
Hold & Win
This feature can be triggered by landing at least 1 Coin Symbol or Elvis Cash Collector on each reel in the same spin, awarding 3 respins. It can also be randomly triggered whenever a Coin Symbol lands during the Base Game.
Only blanks, Coin, and Cash Collector Symbols can land during the feature. Whenever a Elvis Cash Collector lands in view, they are locked in position for the duration of the feature, and the respins reset. Each Elvis Cash Collector in view will collect the values of all Coin Symbols that land on the reels. The Hold & Win ends when no more respins remain, and you are awarded the total value of all Elvis Cash Collect Symbols in view.
Jackpot Hold & Win
This feature can be triggered by landing at least 1 Jackpot Symbol or Elvis Jackpot Collector on each reel in the same spin, awarding 3 respins. It can also be randomly triggered whenever a Jackpot Symbol lands during the Base Game.
This feature works with the same mechanics as the regular Hold & Win, but instead of Coin and Elvis Cash Collector, Jackpot and Elvis Jackpot Collector Symbols can land on the reels.

Boost Bonus Chance = Activated for an extra cost of 50% of the current bet and an RTP of 95.74%. Doubles the chance of triggering a Bonus Game.

Final Thoughts on Elvis Presley: Burning Jackpots
Octoplay delivers another edition to its branded Elvis series, this time as a reskin of Cash Storm: Hold & Win. Elvis is regarded as one of the world’s most famous performers ever, with numerous top songs and successful movies. However, did you know that he also had a signature sandwich which included white bread, bacon, peanut butter, banana, and butter used to fry the sandwich? Unfortunately, Octoplay hasn’t included this type of unique information or vibe, making it a generic experience.
So what makes this Elvis game special? As mentioned in the Introduction, this is a reskin of Cash Storm: Hold & Win featuring an Elvis design. Everything else is the same, including the collection mechanics, which include both Coin and Jackpot Symbols up to 500X the bet. While testing the game, we hit some decent Jackpot payouts during the Jackpot Hold & Win, and appreciate the collection features that can trigger from the first spin.
Overall, it might appeal to those who enjoy the Cash Collect mechanic and Octoplay’s straightforward approach. However, for us, the design feels generic, and where is the Elvis soundtrack, or at least something that bears his style? Considering it’s a reskin with no visual surprises, it didn’t meet our expectations. If you want more from Octoplay, we recommend Eternal Clash.
Elvis Presley: Burning Jackpots is a slot with a familiar gameplay structure that fails to bring enough of the King’s personality to the reels.
