PG Soft released Mahjong Ways 2 around an unusual pairing: medium volatility labelling alongside a published maximum win of 100,000x, and that is the part that changes how it plays.
This page’s figures all trace back to a published source.
What the maximum win figure actually means
Mahjong Ways 2’s published 100000x ceiling reflects the biggest possible outcome of one round relative to the stake. This is a boundary rather than a goal, and it tells you nothing about how often an outcome occurs. It’s possible for a game to have a very high ceiling and yet mostly pay small amounts whenever it pays at all.
Consider the ceiling together with the volatility, not on its own. Read side by side, the two describe the shape of the game; read alone, each is close to useless.
How Mahjong Ways 2 compares with its siblings
A 25,000x maximum win and 1,024 evaluated ways define the original Mahjong Ways. 2,000 is the count; 100,000x is published. Moving from 96.92% to 96.95% is barely a change in RTP, so the extra headroom must be funded by rarity of reaching it.
Understanding Mahjong Ways 2’s RTP and volatility
96.95% is the published RTP, a long-run average across millions of spins rather than something true for one evening.
PG Soft’s published data is the source of this figure, which its game page doesn’t include.
According to PG Soft, this is medium volatility, describing how results are shaped rather than how big they are.
The way Mahjong Ways 2’s feature round works
The game’s actual payout comes from the feature round.
Golden tiles turn into wilds as they drop, in a cascade that becomes an avalanche while the way-count nearly doubles to 2,000. What deserves attention is how a medium volatility label sits alongside a 100,000x maximum — a pairing that typically points to an accounting ceiling rather than a realistic outcome to expect. It still runs on a rising free-spins multiplier, one that carries through a round without resetting.
According to PG Soft, the maximum win here is 100000x, describing the top of a single round, not what a session should aim for.
