Jeff Millar, Commercial Director of North America at Evolution, is positive that this milestone deal between the two parties represents a great fit for further development of live casino experience in digital form. With this partnership, punters will gain access to the provider’s finest Live Casino and First Person RNG-based games.

Exceptional Quality

With this business association, PlayLive! customers from Pennsylvania will gain access to the producer’s cutting-edge collection of online casino games, game show-style gaming, and First Person offering. All these are broadcasted from the live studio in Philadelphia.

Commenting on the partnership, Joe Billhimer, Executive Vice President at Cordish Gaming Group, said:

“We have selected Evolution as our strategic online partner because we are confident that the exceptional quality and breadth of the Evolution offering will enable us to achieve this goal.”

As far as the planned…

Casinos and Hotels have established new standards regarding customer experience, striving to deliver pure perfection. Their enterprises are highly acclaimed throughout the Mid-Atlantic region, holding the reputation of must-visit destinations.

Strong Presence in PA

Evolution is just one of the many partners the Group has aligned so far. The previous year was marked with two milestone agreements.

…brought cooperation with GAN, enabling punters from this US state to play some of their most popular online slots, table games, and non-traditional online gambling products. In addition to this, GAN’s platform was integrated with Cordish Company’s “Live! Rewards” program.

In October, NetEnt’s content went live with PlayLive!, giving customers a unique chance to spin the reels of Starburst, Gonzo’s Quest and Divine Fortune, and many other hit releases from the producer’s wealthy portfolio. It’s interesting to note that NetEnt has already been present in Pennsylvania since 2019.

More Agreements for Faster Expansion

Thanks to this contract…

The offering encompasses fast-growing Game Shows such as Crazy Time, Mega Ball, and Lightning Roulette, as well as the studio’s First Person RNG-based games.

Speaking of Crazy Time…
