Le Viking

Hacksaw Gaming hit the ground running in 2025, and the Le Viking slot game was one of their leading titles, part of a cluster of games they unleashed at the start of the year.

The 6x5 grid reel game features all of the Hacksaw Gaming audiovisual elements that are synonymous with their brand. The 10,000x max jackpot is around double the industry average and is one of several standout factors of the game design.

Known for its unique approach to slot design, Hacksaw has fused the Viking angle of slot gaming with animal-based mayhem. Smokey the raccoon is back in town.

Although he’s in the corner grimacing and looking menacing, many free spins rounds focus on the names of Viking folklore, such as Ragnarok and Valhalla free spins. The symbols include axes, swords, and crossbows, so it certainly leans more toward a Viking theme than an animal one.

Viking-themed games are a big hit and have cemented their place alongside the vast range of mythology-based slot games here at LeoVegas — but the inclusion of Smokey, in true Hacksaw Gaming fashion, has given it some truly unique characteristics.

Hacksaw Gaming has put a lot of time and effort into the bonus features for the Le Viking slot. Here are the most notable characteristics of the main bonus games.

In the conventional sense, Le Viking does not have a free spin bonus feature. Yes, there’s the free spins symbol, which leads to three free spins, but with each additional free spins symbol, there’s a different level of free spins to unlock:

Valkyrie Free Spins — four free spins symbols and a 4x multiplier.
Ragnarok Free Spins — five free spins symbols and a 5x multiplier.
Journey to Valhalla free spins — six free spins symbols and up to a 10x multiplier.

Sticking to the lore and mystique of Viking mythology, the magic cauldron multiplies all available symbols, throwing them into the cauldron and providing a multiplier. Diamonds, coins, and other high-paying symbols combine until the feature ends.

With over 15,000 paylines available on the Le Viking slot game, there are many high-paying symbols to watch out for in the base game.

Most of the symbols relate to Viking myths, warfare, and classic symbolism of the era. The highest paying symbols include the crossbow, which offers a 3x return, right up to the sword and Thor’s hammer, which offers a 4x and 6x if you trigger six across any of the paylines.

You can explore the full list in the info section to see which symbols you want to trigger and which ones are best to avoid.

Le Viking slot game might have an unconventional 6x5 grid design, but the slot controls are run-of-the-mill. The spin button is on the right-hand side of the base game, and the game works on all smartphones, tablets and iPads, so long as you have the correct software update on your mobile device.

It’s always a good idea to skim through a slot's controls and information section before you play — but if you just want to get stuck in, simply fund your LeoVegas account, choose your betting amount, and hit spin.

Le Viking has the quirky combo of Smokey the Raccoon and the intensity of Viking voyaging and pillaging, which is one of the most notable factors of their voyages across the globe. Released in 2025, the game features some of the best graphics and audiovisual design we’ve seen in any Hacksaw game.

The inclusion of Smokey means that the game’s aesthetic isn’t intensely Viking-based and operates at a breakneck speed. Instead, it has a bouncy, royal-sounding soundtrack that makes it feel more action-based than laid-back or comical.
