Evolution Launches Its First Live Casino Studio in Czech Republic
On October 3, Evolution revealed that it launched its first live casino studio in the Czech Republic. The studio was previously announced in the company’s Q1 report.
The studio is in a standalone location inside the land-based casino Kajot Intacto in Prague. It will initially offer Infinite Blackjack and other live dealer games, such as roulette, poker, baccarat, and standard versions of blackjack.
Evolution already had a presence in the region, with its slot games already offered through its subsidiary companies.
Evolution CEO for Europe Gionata La Torre said, “We are honored to launch the first live casino offering for the new Czech live casino market — and as part of an agreement with the Czech capital’s premier land-based venue, Kajot Intacto Praha. Leading the way in new regulated markets is central to Evolution’s growth strategy.
“The Prague studio launch opens up huge opportunity for Czech operators, as does the regulator’s approval of our Infinite Blackjack and Roulette. Offering these games with native Czech-speaking dealers will help create a more immersive and engaging experience for players, fostering a strong rapport between dealers and players, which is key to building trust and long-term customer loyalty.”
Evolution Gaming has live casino studios throughout North America and Europe, offering 24-7 access to live casino games. It operates in 15 languages and provides a customized experience to players.
It is also a major employer, employing over 16,000 people in its studios.
