Evolution Launches the World’s First Live Online Craps Game
Exciting news for iGaming fans! Evolution, a leading developer of casino software, has just released the world’s first live dealer version of the classic game craps. This innovative title promises to bring all the thrills and excitement of a traditional casino right to your screen.
To make things even better, Evolution has included an Easy Mode and an interactive tutorial for beginners. And for those who prefer a more traditional approach, a Random Number Generator version will be available soon.
According to Todd Haushalter, Chief Product Officer at Evolution, “Players and casinos have been asking for a live craps game for years. We listened and delivered. With this release, we now offer every game that you would find at a physical casino.”
“Developing this game was no easy feat,” Haushalter continued. “But our team has done an exceptional job creating an authentic craps experience in an online setting. We are confident that craps enthusiasts will love it, and we also hope to attract new players from around the world.”
What’s the Initial Reaction?
While it’s too early to gauge the market response accurately, initial feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. The attention to detail is impressive; even the dice are rolled by a mechanized arm to ensure fair play – just like in a physical casino.
Proposed Merger with NetEnt
In addition to this groundbreaking release, Evolution has announced plans to acquire NetEnt for $2.1 Billion. This merger is a strategic move, as both companies have been performing exceptionally well in their respective markets. During the third quarter of 2020, Evolution generated over 140 million Euros in revenue, while NetEnt‘s profits increased by 58% compared to the previous year.
Evolution has also been expanding its reach globally, with new live tables recently launched in Pennsylvania and Kaunas, Lithuania. The company’s recent releases, Crazy Time and Instant Roulette, have been well-received and are expected to be followed by the success of live craps.
Meanwhile, NetEnt has focused on solidifying its presence in the United States through partnerships with top operators like William Hill US, BetMGM, DraftKings, Scientific Games, and Tipico.
