Leading provider of live casino solutions, Evolution Gaming, has published an official press release in which it was stated that they have signed a multi-year agreement with one of the largest gambling operators in the US, Golden Nugget.
The behemoth company is also the owner of casino venues in Las Vegas, Atlantic City, Laughlin, Biloxi and Lake Charles.
Golden Nugget is revered as the pioneer of the live dealer category in USA…
…and has been operating their own live studio from the casino in Atlantic City. This has been going on since 2016 and their technology is powered by Ezugi.
According to the terms of the agreement, Golden Nugget’s online offering in New Jersey will be further enhanced, as well as in the other US states in the future. This will be achieved through the addition of Evolution’s US online Live Casino services.
Golden Nugget’s players will gain access to Evolution’s Dream Catcher, Side Bet City and Top Card, as well as other games from the Evolution portfolio.
Evolution’s titles will be streamed from the brand’s own Live Casino studio in Atlantic City or from Golden Nugget’s own live studio.
The agreement extends to the live casino offerings of operators currently served by the Golden Nugget Live Casino studio in Atlantic City. They too will have the option to access selected Evolution Live Casino titles through their agreements with Golden Nugget. Those Golden Nugget partners for New Jersey currently include Betfair/FanDuel, Borgata, BetMGM, PartyCasino, BetAmerica and Caesars.
Evolution and Golden Nugget have also stated that, as US online gaming legislation evolves, their companies will together explore opportunities in other US states.
Golden Nugget’s Senior Vice President and General Manager of Online Gaming, Thomas Winter, remarked:
“Our online players and those of our partners are very well served with our existing online Live Casino offering in terms of classic casino table games. The agreement with Evolution will give our players and those of our operating partners access to more unique show-style games and other unique titles, enriching their live gaming experience.
The new generation of Evolution Live Casino games will also help us serve a broader player demographics, including sports bettors. This we believe, will allow us collectively to further increase the share of online casino revenue attributed to Live games.”
Evolution’s Chief Commercial Officer, Sebastian Johannisson, added:
“We are honoured to be working in partnership with Golden Nugget in what we believe is a key agreement that paves the way for further exciting growth in the US Live Casino market. This deal further consolidates our position in New Jersey while providing an additional strategic platform from which to introduce additional new games to the US, including titles that have already been very successful in the Live Casino space in Europe.”
