DUCK HUNTERS SLOT: OVERVIEW
Last Updated: February 25, 2025Written by Stephen Cummings
It is duck hunting season at NoLimit City! Three different free spins bonus games, the usual xBet no limit booster and the frequently misunderstood Infectious xWays will be available in Duck Hunters.
This Duck Hunter slot review will give you all of the information you need to know so that you can make an informed decision on whether you would like to play Duck Hunters for real money or not.
DUCK HUNTERS: FIRST IMPRESSIONS
A fun theme and lots of action in this one. Cascading reels occur every win and multipliers are always added to the spaces where wins occur. During our 15 minute playthrough of Duck Hunters, we managed to trigger three Duck Hunt spins by landing three scatter symbols. We did play using the xBet feature though which guaranteed one scatter symbol per spin at the expense of two times our base bet which meant 20p per spin increased to a bet size of 40p per spin.
Due to the high variance aspect of Duck Hunters, the free spins game was a little disappointing as most spins did not trigger any wins. We did manage to hit a 50x win, but other than that, slim pickings!
As for the overall theme, we like it a lot. I did not realise that Americans loved duck hunting so much though. Two of the symbols even look a little like Donald Trump and Hilary Clinton! The music is jovial too and overall, despite being £20 in the minus, we enjoyed playing Duck Hunters.
DUCK HUNTERS FEATURES
Like most Nolimit City slot games, Duck Hunters will be packed full of features, some of which we have highlighted for you below.
SCATTER PAYS
Payouts are awarded when eight or more symbols of the same kind land on the reels. Winning symbols are removed and more symbols will drop into play meaning that further wins are possible. A multiplier of 2x is added on each position where a symbol was removed. If a position multiplier already existed then the value is doubled up to a max of 8,192x.
DUCK HUNT SPINS
Landing three scatter symbols on the reels will trigger seven Duck Hunt spins. Position multipliers are kept during free spins too. Landing a Extra +1 Shot symbol will guarantee an additional free spin.
During this feature, any 1 of the following 3 upgrades is randomly awarded.
- Upgraded xWays® : xWays® symbols are replaced by Infectious xWays®.
- Upgraded Bomb: An exploding Bomb removes adjacent regular paying symbols in a 5×5 pattern.
- Extra +2 Shots: Replaces the Extra +1 Shot symbol and awards +2 spins upon landing.
HAWK EYE SPINS
Landing four scatter symbols will trigger eight Hawk Eye spins. it has the same features as Duck Hunt spins but two features are awarded instead of one.
BIG GAME SPINS
Landing five scatter symbols will trigger the Big Game spins bonus. This is the same as the other bonus spins but all three of the features are awarded.
XBET (NOLIMIT BOOSTER)
The fantastic xBet feature is back which, at the cost of two times the base bet, will make triggering the free spins five times more likely by guaranteeing a bonus symbol on the second reel. SlotsHawk is a big fan of this feature.
DAY 2 SPINS (NOLIMIT BOOSTER)
A nice additional feature in Duck Hunters is the Day 2 Spins booster which, at the cost of 2.8 times the base bet, will ensure the initial multiplier value of all positions will be 2x.
XWAYS & INFECTIOUS XWAYS
xWays symbols will transform into regular paying symbols but increase the multiplier by 2, 4 or 8 times the bet.
Infectious xWays®: The revealed xWays® symbol will infect all of the other same symbols on the reel area to expand to the same size.
Full List of Features:
- Bonus game (x3)
- xBet
- xWays
- infectious xWays

DUCK HUNTERS RTP (RETURN TO PLAYER) AND MAXIMUM PAYOUTS
Duck Hunters has an RTP of 96.05%, which is slightly above average when compared to other online slot games.
The maximum payout available in Duck Hunters is 30,000x your bet. However, the max win probability is 1 in 22 million spins. With that being said, 30,000x is more than enough to give Duck Hunters a place on our list of the best payout slot machines.
STRATEGIES WHEN PLAYING DUCK HUNTERS FOR REAL MONEY
We recommend betting well-within your bank roll. Even though we were essentially betting the minimum, it did not take us long to lose £20 here. The high variance aspect means that wins can often take a while to occur.
EXTRA INFO
Duck Hunters is played on a 5-5-5-5-5-5 grid and is a scatter pays slot. The volatility level is extreme (another word for very high) and the minimum bet is expected to be 20p per spin whilst the max bet shouldn’t be higher than £20 per spin. Main features in Duck Hunters include the usual NoLimit Boosters as well as Infectious xWays.
Key information you should know about Duck Hunters slot is an RTP of 96.05%, and a maximum payout value of 30,000x. However, this payout will only be triggered once in every 22 million spins on average. The hit frequency of Duck Hunters is 17.07%, which is pretty good for such a high volatility slot. Duck Hunters was released on 11/02/2025 and has been developed by NoLimit City.
THE SLOTSHAWK VERDICT
“A fun slot with a lot of action, Duck Hunters is a must-play slot if you enjoy NoLimit City slots. Just be aware that it is a little violent!”
