A wrong label can steer a whole session, and Wild Bandito carries one in circulation. On PHWIN it is a PG Soft title on the PG tab. Some listings call it high volatility, while the studio’s page says Medium, and that gap is the first thing worth settling.

Wild Bandito: Published Figures and the Volatility Mix-Up

The grid is five reels by four rows, and the symbols that matter wear gold frames. Inside free spins the multiplier climbs and does not drop back while the round lasts. The table below carries the figures from PG Soft’s own page as read on 30 October 2026.

Where a third-party table says high, treat the studio label as the winner. A volatility label describes how spread out results are, and PG Soft sets it for its own titles.

What Changes Once Free Spins Start

Once the round begins, the multiplier starts moving upward and keeps increasing as the free spins run. Each spin in that round is therefore worth more than the one before it, other things equal. The gold-framed symbols are part of the same package, and the paytable spells out what they do.

That shape rewards patience more than haste. More spins in the round means more value, yet the game alone decides how many you get. Your lever is the stake, so lock it in before the first spin.

Compare that with the cascades in the Mahjong Ways 2 cascade multiplier, where the climb comes from chains inside a spin. Wild Bandito builds its climb across spins instead, which makes the two feel different at the same Medium label.

Compare it with its closest neighbour on the PG tab. Mahjong Ways also publishes a 25,000x maximum win and a Medium label, with a 96.92% RTP against Wild Bandito’s 96.73%. The two sheets look close, yet their free-spin mechanics differ, so a figure matching another title’s is a coincidence of the sheet and not a sign of shared maths. Read each title’s own paytable, and never carry a rule across from the other.

How to Get Started

  1. Settle the label first

    Write down Medium as the studio label before you read any third-party table. Older tables that say high are out of date.

  2. Note the gold frames

    Check the paytable for the symbols wearing gold borders. Read what the info screen says they do before you assume.

  3. Judge free spins by the climb

    In a short session, watch whether the multiplier moves between free spins. That climb, not the count of spins, sets the round's value.

Questions From the Stands

Is Wild Bandito high or medium volatility?

Medium, on PG Soft's own page. A few older data sets around the network called it high; when they clash, go with the studio.

What is the RTP of Wild Bandito?

PG Soft lists 96.73%. The lobby tile does not print an RTP, so that number belongs to the studio alone.

When did Wild Bandito come out?

It arrived on 3 May 2021 according to the studio's games timeline. That list shows 05.03 with the month leading, so a quick glance can turn it into 5 March.
