ALEA, operator of the only 3D virtual reality online casino in the world, SlotsMillion, is thrilled to announce that it has made its first millionaire after a lucky player hit a £2.2m jackpot at the site.

The lucky player, who hails from the UK and had only been registered at SlotsMillion Casino for a couple of days, managed to land his life-changing win while spinning the reels on NetEnt’s Mega Fortune networked progressive jackpot slot game.

The player’s gigantic jackpot win comes just a few months after SlotsMillion launched in the UK after being granted a license by the Great Britain Gambling Commission and prior to the online casino acquiring the UK-facing casino brand, LadyLucks, from IGT.

The player, who wishes to remain anonymous, commented on his win by saying that he still cannot believe it and that it is a life changing situation.  He added that he and his wife may use some of the winnings to go travelling, but they have yet to properly discuss how they will spend all the cash.

The lucky punter went on to say that he came across the brand on one of the big casino review sites, and it had received a lot of positive feedback about the number of games offered and the overall player experience.  He also said that he definitely wasn’t disappointed with SlotsMillion, even before his big win came.

The co-founder of ALEA, Alexander Tomic, commented that they are thrilled to have made their first SlotsMillion millionaire, and only a few months after launching in the UK.  He added that they love it when their players win big, and this is their biggest win to date.
