Evolution’s Lightning Roulette to Go Live in Land-Based Casinos through Scientific Games

Evolution, one of the most recognizable iGaming suppliers of content in the industry, has signed a partnership with Scientific Games (SG), a leading platform.

The partnership will see Evolution’s Lightning Roulette go live as a showpiece physical game in land-based casinos worldwide.

The game’s striking setting and integrated random RNG multipliers and its distinctive live wheel will be made available exclusively from Scientific to land-based casinos across the world. Lightning Roulette will be the first Evolution game which will be streamed from land-based casinos tables, which will make the transition from live to land-based much smoother.

The game launched its online version in 2018. It received the Product Innovation of the Year Award at the Global Gaming Awards and the G2E Las Vegas and EGR’s Game of the Year award.

Evolution and SG, which recently teamed up with Golden Nugget, have a long-standing and successful relationship, especially in the European, Canadian and US markets. Evolution’s titles are featured on the SG platform.

From Online to Land-based

Representatives from Evolution, which recently went live in the UK with Entain, say that Lightning Roulette has been the biggest table game in online casinos for years and that this is the first time that they are bringing an online experience to the land-based casinos.

Todd Haushalter, Chief Product Officer at Evolution, said: “Lightning Roulette has been the biggest table game in online casino for years and we are thrilled to have Scientific Games bring it to land-based casinos. This gets us one step closer to letting players find Lightning Roulette everywhere they want to play. At Evolution, we have millions of players who enjoy the game, so there should be an instant fan base who are ready to play at their local casino when given the chance. When we created Lightning Roulette this was the first-time random computer outcomes had been mixed with physical real-world outcomes in Live Casino, and it was an instant success with players. This is also the first time an Evolution game has been brought into land-based casinos, so it is really quite exciting for us!”

Officials from Scientific say that they’ve seen Lightning Roulette’s success in the live sector and that they are excited about making it a land-based experience and that they cannot wait to make it available on the gaming floors across North America and the rest of the world.

Rob Bone, Senior Vice President of Global Systems and Table Games at Scientific Games, commented: “We have watched Lightning Roulette’s phenomenal success in a live-dealer, online format and cannot wait to make it available on the gaming floors of land-based casinos across North America and around the world. With its trademark lightning strikes and big-win multipliers, Lightning Roulette is sure to be one of the most visually engaging and entertaining live table games ever offered. It provides a truly unique roulette experience for players and we are confident that in its land-based form, scheduled for go-live in 2022, it will be an absolute star attraction.”
