Wild Hot Chilli Reels 2 Slot Review
Get ready to spice things up in Wild Hot Chilli Reels 2, courtesy of Red Tiger!
Set to release in January 2025, Wild Hot Chilli Reels 2 is a fiery follow-up of the original Wild Hot Chilli Reels, promising several notable improvements when compared to its predecessor.
Wild Hot Chilli Reels 2 is a rather subtle title from Red Tiger, which keeps in line with the characteristics that made the original a hit with many players. Red Tiger combines the classic fruit theme with modern mechanics, offering simple gameplay and plenty of entertainment.
The classic theme generates split opinions, you either love or hate it. What’s interesting though, is that software providers love to breathe new life into this particular theme in games like Juicy Fruits and Toro 7s. Seasoned with expanding wilds and flaming respins, will Wild Hot Chilli Reels 2 be too hot to handle? Let’s play on and find out!
Base Game & Features
Wild Hot Chilli Reels 2 is a low volatility slot with 5 reels and 3 rows, but instead of pay lines as seen in the original, Red Tiger has chosen 243 ways to win. Other statistics of note are the overall RTP of 95.71% and the max win cap of 1,164x your bet.
Winning combinations are produced when 3 or more matching symbols land from left to right, starting from the leftmost reel. Payouts between 0.3x and 10x your bet are awarded, depending on the winning symbol type.
Hot Chilli Wild
Whenever a Chilli Wild symbol appears on reels 2-4, it will expand to fill the entire reel. Once in position, it will lock and trigger a Respin. This continues if a new Hot Chilli Wild symbol lands during this time. Wilds substitute for all paytable symbols.
Bonus Buy
The feature buy option allows non-UK players to purchase 1 Hot Chilli Wild in a single spin for 5x their current bet.

Our Verdict
When we first caught wind of Wild Hot Chilli Reels 2, we were a little perplexed as there wasn’t a whole lot to build off the back of the original. As it turns out, Wild Hot Chilli Reels 2 was never intended to be an innovative and wildly drastic upgrade of the original, but rather, a slot with subtle improvements.
Due to these minor adjustments, this game will certainly not appeal to long-standing players, but more accommodating to beginners just starting in the iGaming community. Of the small changes, the most significant is the 243 ways to win. This definitively tops the 10 pay lines found in the original.
If you’re familiar with the original, you’re aware of the lack of Free Spins. Instead, you’re greeted with a special Wild Chilli feature with accessible Respins. This is great for a base game feature, but it’s not quite sufficient to replace Free Spins, in our opinion.
