Danger High Voltage 2 Slot Review
Danger High Voltage 2 from Big Time Gaming feels like a surreal release. It comes almost a decade after its predecessor, which left and continues to leave an impression on players like few can.
With licenced music from Electic Six, Danger High Voltage offered up an experience that had you boogying in your seat if it didn’t make you stand up. Though absent of the hedonistic flashing private parts that made the music video so energetic, Danger High Voltage could bring action that made the video somehow tame.
The sequel has arrived, and it’s a highly anticipated release. It inspired releases like the equally rambunctious Lil Devil and Wild Flower before coming full circle to revisit where it all began and this equipped with their Megadozer mechanic, seen before in slots like Bonanza Falls. As we often say with sequels to big games – it has big shoes to fill, and in this particular case it has some very big shoes to fill.
Danger High Voltage 2 hits UK Slot Sites and other online casinos on 23/10/2024, and players will be eagerly waiting.
Base Game & Features
Available across 6 reels, Danger High Voltage 2 is a highly volatile slot that plays host to the Megaways mechanic. Simply select a bet size between £.€0.20 per spin and £.€15 per spin to begin a game round.
Wins occur from the leftmost reel when 3 or more (or 2+ high-paying) matching symbols land in a single spin. The highest-paying (Skull) produces wins between 0.5x and 2.5x your bet for a 2-6 winning combination. Low-paying symbols are standard card suits (A, K, Q, J, 10, and 9).
Winning symbols are taken off the reels and replaced by new symbols via a Cascade Feature. This continues until no new winning combinations occur in that spin. Wilds substitute for all symbols except Scatters and may appear with a Multiplier value of x2, x3, or x5. The multiplier is applied to all wins that run through it.
Danger High Voltage 2 has a theoretical RTP of 96.77% and a generous max win cap of 52,908x your bet. Other statistics include a lower RTP variant of 94%.
Megadozer
Above the main reel set is a special Megadozer, similar to the 2p and 10p machines found in an Arcade. During spins, a number of Silver Coins may be pushed onto specific reel positions, revealing one of the following:
- A win multiplier for the current base game spin which increments by +x1 per winning combination.
- A scatter symbol
- A wild symbol which can reveal a Multiplier of x2, x3, or x5

Our Verdict
Danger High Voltage was a huge hit, and it still is. It was electricity on the reels with unique features and a double bonus round at a time when many slots were still quite standard. Nostalgia is a pretty big factor when you look back in fondness on anything, but we dare say that Danger High Voltage 2 feels underwhelming in contrast.
Statistically, it is more capable than the original by a long shot, but it doesn’t seem to retain the charming personality that made the first famous. Sequels are a dangerous game, and there’s an argument to say that when you’ve crafted gold you should just leave it there. Danger High Voltage 2 doesn’t feel like a sequel that ignites the reels in the same way, but we wonder if we’d have thought more highly of it if it was a slot in its own right, rather than riding on the coattails of a legend.
There’s a lot to praise and readers may think that we’re unfair in our seemingly harsh judgement, but we just can’t see ourselves looking back on Danger High Voltage 2 with anything resembling the kind of affection that we feel for the original.
Mikstake it not for a failure – it’s well worth a go and even convincing in many ways, but there’s more to a game than just statistics. The art form of creating slots consists of factors beyond just capabilities.
