Post# of 301275
Evolution Gaming, leading provider of Live Casino solutions, has signed an agreement comprising additional games and side bets from the Games Marketing proprietary portfolio. The agreement runs for six years and strengthens Evolution’s attractive range of qualitative online live table games. Under the terms of the agreement Evolution has secured the rights to six of the leading table games and side bets from the Games Marketing portfolio for an initial term of six years. The deal extends a current agreement that has seen side bets included in Evolution’s online Live Blackjack. The first of the new games is scheduled for release to Evolution licensees before the end of 2015. Chris Reynolds, CEO at Games Marketing, said: “Evolution’s strong offering in online Live Casino is an excellent match with the Games Marketing portfolio, which has seen significant success in the land-based environment. We now strengthen our strategic partnership with Evolution and I expect the new agreement to become our most valuable deal in the live dealer space.” Jens von Bahr, CEO of Evolution, added: “While keeping our focus on developing new innovative products, it is fundamental as a market leading Live Casino provider to also be able to offer numerous qualitative tables games. Thus, we have committed to launch six new games with certain preferential rights from our strategic partner Games Marketing. The new games will together with the current range provide a material and long-term competitive advantage for Evolution.” Established in 2003, Games Marketing is the leading provider of proprietary table games to the online gaming industry. The company’s portfolio of over 40 renowned table games includes Roulette, Blackjack, Baccarat and Poker variants – highly successful games that have been proven in the demanding land-based casino market.
