Evolution Games Lightning Roulette to be available at land-based casinos

Evolution Games has announced its Lightning Roulette title will be available at land-based casinos worldwide.

Lightning Roulette, which is one of the most popular live online casino games, will be launched as a physical showpiece at casinos with this partnership with Scientific Games giving them access to many venues globally.

The deal will see the distinctive Evolution Lightning Roulette live wheel, with its striking game setting with integrated random RNG multipliers, made available exclusively from Scientific Games to land-based casinos worldwide.

It will be the first Evolution game, other than the company’s Dual Play Roulette and Baccarat games which are tables that are streamed from land-based casinos tables, to make the transition from live to land-based.

Chief Product Officer at Evolution Todd Haushalter said Lightning Roulette had become the biggest table game at online casinos in recent years and to move it into the retail space was a logical step.

“This gets us one step closer to letting players find Lightning Roulette everywhere they want to play,” he said.

“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.”

Scientific Games Senior Vice President Rob Bone said they were excited to be rolling out such an innovative roulette title.

“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,” he said.

“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.”
