There is no denying that Evolution and Betway are some of the most popular companies in the iGaming industry. Therefore, when these two companies strike a deal, players at the best live casinos can only expect better. Evolution recently announced that it had sealed the deal with Super Group-owned Betway.

So, what’s under the wraps in this new partnership?

Evolution’s live casino games in Pennsylvania and New Jersey

Following this deal, Evolution’s live verticals and first-person will go live in Pennsylvania and New Jersey via Betway. The games would be available to play on smartphones, desktops, and tablets in these two gambling states. 

The deal also includes classics like Blackjack, Roulette, Baccarat, and several Poker variants. As expected, Betway players will also play the latest Evolution innovations like Cash or Crash, Lightning Roulette, Crazy Time, and Gonzo’s Quest Treasure Hunt.

Betway is a popular iGaming brand, specifically in the sports betting industry. As such, the deal only means that millions of Betway players will access Evolution’s titles in the two states. It’s a win-win!

It’s also worth noting that Betway entered the burgeoning US iGaming market through a licensing deal with DGC (Digital Gaming Corporation). In addition, Betway already has a partnership with Evolution-owned NetEnt to offer its slot titles in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

US rollout continues to catch pace

According to Jeff Millar, Commercial Director of North America at Evolution, the deal is a true testament that this live casino software developer continues to expand in the US. The official announced that Evolution and Betway already have a strong working relationship in other regulated markets. He continued that Evolution is committed to helping Betway achieve tremendous success in the two states and many more in the future. 

On the other side, Anthony Werkman, Betway CEO, was also quick to shower praises on the deal. He said that the latest agreement would allow their players to enjoy world-class casino games online powered by Evolution. In addition, Werkman exhibited confidence that their players in the two respective states will enjoy playing in a safe, secure, fair, and responsible environment. There’s certainly no doubt about that!

Pennsylvania and New Jersey are some of the most popular states regarding gambling. They are famous for their safe and regulated markets, which are already a haven for the best brands in the game. The latest agreement will only expand the player choices even further.

Other notable US deals for Evolution

Back in September, the live casino specialist announced the acquisition of DigiWheel. This is the brainchild behind the very first patented HD gaming wheel. Following the purchase, DigiWheel’s unique technologies and innovations now belong to Evolution. But just like Big Time Gaming, Ezugi, NetEnt, and Red Tiger, DigiWheel will maintain its brand identity under the Evolution umbrella.

Further down in July, Evolution announced the launch of its US live studio in Michigan. The state-of-the-art studio is the eleventh for Evolution and third in the US after the ones in NJ and Pennsylvania. It was launched after Michigan Gaming Control Board approved the game developer. 

The new studio would stream entertaining live table games like Lightning Blackjack, Infinite Blackjack, standard Blackjack, Baccarat, Roulette, etc. Further, live game shows like Cash or Crash are now available to Michigan players. 

It’s also worth mentioning that 2021 has seen lots of innovative releases from Evolution. The company debuted Live Fan Tan and Cash or Crash in recent months, with the electrifying Lightning Blackjack only going live last month. So overall, it is a reasonably successful year for Evolution.
