Legacy of Dead Paytable: Symbol Pays in Bet Multiples
Five Kings pay 500x, five Anubis 160x, and the same reels run at five RTP settings from 96.58% to 84.55%. How to read every line.
The Legacy of Dead paytable pays in multiples of your bet: five Kings return 500x, five Anubis 160x and five Horus/Tutankhamen 60x, according to OLBG's symbol by symbol payout list. Those multiples sit on a five-reel, ten-line game capped at 5,000x the bet, and what they are worth over time depends on which of five RTP versions the casino has switched on.
How the grid and paylines work
Legacy of Dead runs five reels and ten paylines, with wins paid left to right along a line. Play'n GO's own Dead series rundown gives the grid, the line count and the 5,000x ceiling, and states the general rule that a win needs three or more matching symbols on a payline.
The Tomb is the one symbol with two jobs. Per the Legacy of Dead game page, it acts as a wild that substitutes for any symbol, and it is also the scatter that opens the bonus. So every Tomb you see is either completing a line or counting toward free spins.
Premium symbol payouts as bet multiples
Each figure below is a multiple of the bet, so you multiply by your stake to get the cash value. The table is the premium end of the Legacy of Dead paytable, as listed by OLBG (as of October 2026).
| Symbol | 2 of a kind | 3 of a kind | 4 of a kind | 5 of a kind |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| King | 1x | 10x | 100x | 500x |
| Anubis | 0.5x | 3x | 30x | 160x |
| Horus/Tutankhamen | 0.5x | 2x | 8x | 60x |
Read each row left to right and the shape is obvious: almost all the value is in the fifth symbol. King goes from 100x on four to 500x on five. Anubis goes from 30x to 160x. Horus/Tutankhamen goes from 8x to 60x.
The two-symbol column is the one to be honest about. A pair of Anubis or Horus/Tutankhamen pays 0.5x, half the bet back. The game flashes a win, but if that bet was your whole spin you are still down on it. A King pair at 1x simply returns the stake.
Why King and Anubis carry the table
The gap between rows matters more than any single number. Five Kings pay 500x against 60x for five Horus/Tutankhamen, so landing the top symbol instead of the third is worth far more than landing a fifth Horus/Tutankhamen instead of a fourth.
Free spins and the expanding symbol
Three or more Tomb scatters unlock the free spins round, according to Play'n GO's free spins description. At the start of the round a Special Expanding Symbol is chosen at random, so you do not pick it and nothing before the draw tells you which one it will be.
Tomb scatters can also land during the free spins, which is why Play'n GO calls the potential for free spins unlimited. Unlimited spins are not unlimited money: the 5,000x cap from the Dead series overview still sets the top of what one game round can pay.
How the RTP versions change the paytable's worth
Legacy of Dead ships at five RTP settings, from 96.58% at the top down to 84.55%, per OLBG's RTP version notes (as of October 2026). The four below the top setting are 94.51%, 91.51%, 87.56% and 84.55%, and the casino, not the player, decides which one is live.
The multiples in the table tell you what a line pays when it lands. RTP tells you what share of all money staked the game is set to hand back over a very long run. Two casinos can show you the same Legacy of Dead reels while running different RTP versions, and the difference shows up only across thousands of spins, not in any one session.
Checking which version you are on
OLBG's advice is to open the paytable in the game to see which RTP you are playing. If the info screen shows 96.58%, you have the top setting. If it shows 84.55%, you are on the lowest of the five, and that is a reason to look at another lobby rather than a reason to change how you bet.
None of this predicts a spin. The paytable and the RTP describe the game's long-run arithmetic; each spin is still a fresh draw from the random number generator.
Maths questions
Is the Legacy of Dead RTP always 96.58%?
No. 96.58% is the top of five versions. OLBG lists 94.51%, 91.51%, 87.56% and 84.55% as the other four, and the casino picks which one you get (as of October 2026).
What is the maximum win on Legacy of Dead?
Play'n GO puts the ceiling at 5,000 times the bet. Free spins can keep retriggering, but winnings stop at that cap.
How do you trigger the Legacy of Dead free spins?
Land three or more Tomb scatters. The Tomb doubles as the wild, so the same symbol that completes lines also opens the bonus.
Can the free spins retrigger?
Yes. Tomb scatters can land during the free spins, which is why Play'n GO describes the number of free spins as unlimited. Nothing in the maths makes a retrigger more likely on any given spin.
