Stockholm-headquartered provider of Live Casino products Evolution Gaming today announced that it has added another major client to its ever-growing portfolio. Under an agreement between the company and London-based Hippodrome Casino, the supplier will roll out an online Live Casino service for the gambling venue and a ‘Live from The Hippodrome’ feed solution for its full network of existing and future licensees.
The Hippodrome Casino’s Live Casino offering will constitute Evolution Gaming’s live tables located in the company’s Riga-based gaming studios as well as a special Dual Play Roulette table, which is to be sited at Lola’s, known to be the emblematic London-based casino’s underground gambling facility.
The innovative Dual Play Roulette product will give The Hippodrome online players the chance to play against ones seated at the Lola’s actual table. The dual-play, or else known as convergence, option has been enabled through the installation of an Evolution Gaming Live Casino camera and sound studio around the table in question. The Dual Play Roulette game will be available to gambling customers on desktop and hand-held devices.
Evolution Gaming existing and new licensees will be able to access the ‘Live form the Hippodrome’ feed that will give them a view of what is happening at Lola’s Dual Play Roulette table. Thus, not only The Hippodrome gambling customers but also players of the Live Casino supplier’s B2B client network will be able to bask into the unique early 20th century atmosphere recreated by Lola’s.
Commenting on today’s announcement, The Hippodrome Casino Director of Online Operations George Constantinou noted that being a powerful and widely recognizable brand, their casino has now further diversified gambling options offered to customers by the addition of Evolution Gaming’s Live Casino games. Thus, players will be able to play not only at the historic casino, but also online at an actual table that fully catches the “unique and pulsating atmosphere of Lola’s.”
Evolution Gaming CEO and co-founder Jens von Bahr said that their partnership with The Hippodrome Casino marks another important step in their land-based distribution and convergence strategy that will diversify experience for online gambling customers and will enrich the options available to his company’s network of licensees.
