Evolution Gaming has announced the signing of the deal with Golden Nugget, the US casino operator.
What the Rollout Includes
Swedish live casino provider will deliver its full suite of live dealer games to Golden Nugget’s online players in New Jersey.
Also, the agreement will allow the supplier to potentially launch its games in other US states. Golden Nugget’s other venues include Las Vegas, Laughlin (Nevada), Biloxi (Mississippi) and Lake Charles (Louisiana).
The games that will go live include Evolution’s live roulette, blackjack, and baccarat table games. This also covers the exclusive game show titles such as Dream Catcher, Side Bet City, and Top Card.
The games will appear as part of Golden Nugget’s expanded live casino offering. They will be joining the operator’s existing Ezugi-powered offering, which was launched in 2016. Games will be streamed live from Evolution’s studio in Atlantic City, or from the Golden Nugget Live Studio.
Golden Nugget’s New Jersey clients will also have access to select Evolution live casino games. This includes the likes of Betfair/FanDuel, Borgata, BetMGM, PartyCasino, BetAmerica and Caesars.
