Evolution is not going to be the only provider of gameshows in the industry, as another competing supplier decided to eject a one-of-a-kind product, which is already available to all operators across the online gaming sector.
Pragmatic Play, a top-ranking content provider to the iGaming industry, has revealed a thrilling new live casino game of chance on November 10th, called Mega Wheel!
According to the studio, this project will offer players a unique experience as if they are on their favorite TV gameshow, now hosted by a team of engaging presenters. As the name suggests, there is a super-sized wheel with 54 multi-colored segments where each number corresponds to a payout for winning participants.
Winnings up to 500 Times!
Pragmatic isn’t hiding the fact that its latest portfolio offering is inspired by two incredibly popular concepts – Big 6 and Money Wheels. To be perfectly clear, the goal of these games is to predict the correct number when the Mega Wheel stops spinning, delivering results up to 40 times the amount bet.
As explained in the rules, one number on the wheel in each round of spins will be selected randomly as the Mega Lucky Number. This feature will boost players’ rewards up to a mammoth 500 times total bet, resulting in a Mega Win.
Mechanics aside, other key attractions also include Autoplay and Bet on All which covers all 9 bet types in one move, Advanced Bets Validation, a detailed Bet History, and finally, a chat option with the host. The operating language is English for now, but there are more than 100 currencies and 20 UI languages onboard.
To make things even more interesting and exciting, Pragmatic Play has integrated live chat, allowing customers to engage with the hosts during the game. This aspect should bring them closer to the experience of the ever-popular TV gameshow format such as Crazy Time.
As an important part of the project, the software retailer has created a state-of-the-art studio with specially designed setting that is characterized by dynamic colors, lights, sound effects and animations that automatically change as the game progresses.
Lena Yasir, vice president at Pragmatic, said about the studio’s gigantic project:
“Game shows are truly a landmark in the relentless player-engagement focus that is the world of live casino. We’re beyond happy to provide a product that’s perfectly in line with the current market demand and to reveal today our take on the popular live casino game shows, the first only of many more to come.”
Yasir added:
“We believe that Mega Wheel is packed with entertainment value that appeals to a wide range of player profiles, which in turn delivers plenty on the potential for conversion.”
The developer is on fire in terms of delivering new products to the vertical, including up to five new slots a month, as well as a growing roster of live casino and bingo products.
A Growing Deluxe Roster
Among the latest slot products over at Pragmatic Play is Pirate Gold Deluxe, another innovative 40-payline game with a 4×5 grid, featuring a hold and win mechanic. Players are invited to look for treasure bags on the reels while triggering Re-Spin bonus modes, and during a special feature, all previous Money Symbols will remain on the reels before respins fill up the remaining spots.
It is possible to acquire three respins, but the count will reset in case of a successful spin.

So Pragmatic now wants to compete with Evolution and provide its share in the gameshow vertical? This should be an interesting fight. It wouldn’t surprise me though to see a merger deal or purchase offer from Evolution after a year.
