Evolution Gaming and Golden Nugget Sign Strategic Partnership Deal
Evolution Gaming, the leader in Live Casino services, announced today it has entered into a partnership deal with Golden Nugget, the Las Vegas-based casino operator that also runs gaming properties in Atlantic City, Laughlin, Biloxi and Lake Charles.
Live Games Since 2016
Golden Nugget, the casino company that pioneered in New Jersey the category Live Dealer games has been broadcasting from its own Live Studio in Atlantic City since 2016, in partnership with Ezugi, a supplier the casino operator acquired 2 years later. Besides its own games broadcast, Golden Nugget is providing content to partners such as BetMGM, PartyCasino, Caesars and FanDuel.
The agreement with Evolution will provide access for Golden Nugget’s online players to the unique portfolio of games, including famous titles such as Dream Catcher, Side Bet City and Top Card. The games will be streamed live to New Jersey players either from Evolution’s own Live Casino studio in Atlantic City, or from the live studio of Golden Nugget.
Ezugi-Powered Games Remain
Players will get the new games as part of an extended Golden Nugget live games offering, alongside its Live Roulette, Blackjack and Unlimited Blackjack, Baccarat, as well as Casino Hold’em and Three Card Poker, all powered by Ezugi. The agreement allows for further expansion in other US states of Evolution’s games, besides the enhancement of existing New Jersey Golden Nugget online portfolio, as both parties stated that they will together explore opportunities where online gaming legislation is introduced.
“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.”
