Buried by Night RTP, max win & volatility in Canada
Updated 11 November 2026
Buried by Night RTP sits at 96.32% when the casino runs the default build, but Hacksaw also ships 94.34%, 92.26% and 86.35% versions. Below: what each one returns per C$100 wagered, where the number hides in the game menu, and why a 4/5 volatility rating matters more for your session than the headline figure.

Buried by Night slot RTP versions
| Build | Exact RTP | Theoretical return per C$100 staked |
|---|---|---|
| 96% (default) | 96.32% | C$96.32 |
| 94% | 94.34% | C$94.34 |
| 92% | 92.26% | C$92.26 |
| 86% | 86.35% | C$86.35 |
These are long-run averages over millions of spins, not what a single evening returns. Still, the gap between the top and bottom build is almost C$10 on every C$100 wagered, and with buys costing 80× or 200× a stake, that difference adds up fast.

How to check the Buried by Night RTP build
Open the game at your casino
Load Buried by Night while logged in, because the build can differ from the free version.
Tap the menu ☰
Choose game rules (the info and paytable screen) rather than the settings panel.
Find the RTP line
Scroll to the line stating the return to player. If it reads 86.35% or 92.26%, you may prefer another casino.
The free demo shows the international build; the version at your casino is the one that counts.

Volatility 4/5 and a hit rate of about 29%
Hacksaw rates the game 4 out of 5 on its own volatility scale. Roughly 29% of base spins pay something, about one in 3.4, so long stretches of nothing are normal. Most of the value sits in DuelRows and bonuses, which is why the Buried by Night bonus buys look tempting — and why they need a firm budget.
The toughest combination
A 4/5 game on the 86.35% build means fewer wins and less of each dollar coming back. Check the build before you buy anything.
17:30 · Sundown · The ceiling
Buried by Night max win: 15,000×
To get there you need all four rows converted into DuelRows, with duel multipliers summing to at least ×72 — a result that natural spins, FeatureSpins and bought bonuses can all produce. No probability is published for it, so any site quoting precise odds for the 15,000× is guessing.
At a C$1 stake the ceiling is C$15,000; at the C$50 top stake it is C$750,000 — a ceiling, not a target.

Buried by Night bet range in Canada
Stakes run from C$0.10 to C$50 per spin. At the bottom a Shoot to Kill buy costs C$20; at the top, C$10,000. Pick a level you can repeat for a whole session. Try it first in the Buried by Night free demo, then see the real money guide. Not for Ontario residents.
