Phoenix Sun is a Quickspin video slot released on 13 December 2016, built around the Egyptian legend of a firebird returning from its ashes. Phoenix Sun begins on a 5x3 layout with 243 ways to win, then opens covered positions as Phoenix Wilds take part in wins. The expanded format reaches 5x6 reels and 7,776 ways, with the Phoenix Rising Respin feature leading into a round of 8 Free Spins.
Phoenix Sun uses five reels and a variable height of three to six rows. Phoenix Sun pays combinations through adjacent reels from the left rather than through fixed paylines, so the number of active ways increases as the covered reel positions are removed.
Phoenix Sun centres its feature sequence on the Phoenix Wild. Phoenix Sun can trigger repeated respins when that wild contributes to a win, while collecting five Phoenix Wilds during one game round awards the Free Spins feature on the fully opened grid.
Phoenix Sun has the following verified specifications:
Phoenix Sun is listed by Wildz with volatility of 7.3/10 and demo play enabled. Phoenix Sun configurations and currency limits can vary by operator, so the information panel inside the version being played remains the relevant source for current stakes and rules.
Phoenix Sun creates a ways win when matching symbols land on consecutive reels beginning with the leftmost reel. Phoenix Sun starts with three visible positions on each reel, giving 243 active ways, and evaluates each paid round according to the symbols and grid size displayed.
Phoenix Sun can continue the same game round through its respin feature. Phoenix Sun outcomes are generated by the game system, and choosing a particular stake or stopping pattern cannot make a Phoenix Wild or an expanded grid more likely to appear.
Phoenix Sun activates Phoenix Rising Respins when a Phoenix Wild forms part of a winning combination. Phoenix Sun removes 3 random covered tiles for every qualifying Phoenix Wild, reveals more reel positions and then supplies a respin on the enlarged layout.
Phoenix Sun continues respinning while a Phoenix Wild appears in a winning combination, unless the Free Spins round is reached. Phoenix Sun does not let the player choose which covers are removed, and a respin does not guarantee another wild, another expansion or a win.
Phoenix Sun changes from a 5x3 starting layout to as much as 5x6 by uncovering positions above the reels. Phoenix Sun therefore moves from 243 ways to a maximum of 7,776 ways when the full playing area is open.
Phoenix Sun increases the number of possible symbol routes when more positions are visible, but additional ways do not assure a profitable round. Phoenix Sun still applies random results to every spin and respin, so the larger grid can finish without a further qualifying combination.
Phoenix Sun awards 8 Free Spins after 5 Phoenix Wilds have been collected during one game round. Phoenix Sun plays the feature on the complete 5x6 grid with all 7,776 ways available from the beginning of the bonus.
Phoenix Sun provides the larger layout throughout the awarded spins, but the feature count and open grid do not guarantee a particular return. Phoenix Sun Free Spins remain random, and results from earlier spins do not make a Phoenix Wild or high-paying combination due on a later spin.
Phoenix Sun has a Wildz platform volatility rating of 7.3/10, which places it in the high-volatility range. Phoenix Sun can therefore produce uneven results, including runs with small or absent returns and less frequent stronger outcomes.
Phoenix Sun volatility describes the distribution of results rather than the timing of the next win. Phoenix Sun does not become more likely to pay a large amount after losses, and previous spins cannot be used to forecast the next random outcome.
Phoenix Sun has a documented maximum payout of 1,716x the stake in Quickspin’s game sheet. Phoenix Sun treats this figure as the upper result available under the stated game mathematics rather than a typical bonus or session outcome.
Phoenix Sun requires an exceptionally favourable sequence to reach its maximum. Phoenix Sun players cannot force that sequence through stake changes, repeated respins or time spent in the game, and most completed rounds will settle below the published ceiling.
Phoenix Sun play begins by opening the game, checking the paytable and information panel, choosing an allowed stake and starting a paid game cycle. Phoenix Sun then evaluates the initial reel result and any Phoenix Rising Respins or Free Spins produced by its programmed rules.
Phoenix Sun is subject to British online slot limits when supplied by a Gambling Commission licensee. Phoenix Sun customers aged 18–24 may stake no more than £2 per game cycle, while customers aged 25 and over have a £5 maximum; these caps limit expenditure but do not alter the random result.
Yes, Phoenix Sun can be played on compatible phones and tablets. Phoenix Sun is documented by Quickspin for desktop and mobile channels, with the variable-height reels, ways system, respins and Free Spins adapted to the available screen.
Phoenix Sun mobile play normally runs through a supported casino site and browser. Phoenix Sun keeps the same core feature rules on a smaller display, while device compatibility, connection quality and the operator’s active configuration can affect access and presentation.
Yes, Phoenix Sun has demo play enabled at Wildz. Phoenix Sun demo mode uses virtual credits so the 243-to-7,776 ways expansion, Phoenix Rising Respins and 8 Free Spins structure can be examined without staking withdrawable money.
Phoenix Sun demo results cannot be converted into cash and do not predict later real-money outcomes. Phoenix Sun access to free-to-play gambling games through a Great Britain-licensed operator requires age verification before the game is made available.
Phoenix Sun may be offered in Great Britain by an online casino holding the appropriate Gambling Commission permission and carrying Quickspin games. Phoenix Sun customers must be at least 18 years old, complete the required identity checks and follow the statutory online slot stake limits.
Phoenix Sun is listed internationally by Wildz, while Wildz states that visitors from the United Kingdom are redirected to partner casinos. Phoenix Sun players should use the Gambling Commission public register to confirm that the business ultimately providing the game is authorised for Great Britain before depositing.
Phoenix Sun real-money play in England, Scotland and Wales is supervised by the Gambling Commission. Phoenix Sun operators serving Great Britain must hold the relevant remote casino permission and verify at least a customer’s name, address and date of birth before gambling.
Phoenix Sun players should distinguish Great Britain from the whole United Kingdom because Northern Ireland follows a separate gambling framework. Phoenix Sun is also covered by age checks for free-play access and by the online slot stake limits that took effect on 9 April 2025 and 21 May 2025.
