The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (PGCB) has reportedly granted live dealer specialist, Evolution Gaming Group AB (EVO:Stockholm), a conditional Interactive Gaming Manufacturer license.

This enables the Swedish company to offer Live Casino services on behalf of iGaming operators via its coming live studio in the state, the planned construction of which is reportedly underway.

“Demand for our Live Casino services in the US has been phenomenal.”

Evolution shares the distinction of being the first Live Casino provider to be awarded in two U.S. states, having gained preliminary wavier status in New Jersey, and now being licensed in neighboring Pennsylvania.

Maximizing opportunities:

Chief Development Officer – America & Land Based for Evolution, James Stern, stated in the company’s official press release…

“Demand for our Live Casino services in the US has been phenomenal. We are delighted to be further expanding our US operations by opening a standalone studio in Pennsylvania to serve both online operators and land-based casinos in the state. We are looking forward to opening up our world-leading Live Casino portfolio to operators and players in the state of Pennsylvania.

“We continue to stay at the forefront — maximising the opportunities in this exciting new market and growing together with our licensees,” added, Stern.

Forward-thinking:

Additionally, to accommodate continued growth in the Garden State, the Stockholm-headquartered company has decided to double the size of its studio in Atlantic City. This planned expansion “will allow additional US licensees to create dedicated tables and environments as well as expanding the games portfolio by adding award-winning ‘crowd pleasers’ to the existing games line-up,” according to the press release.

Greentube deal:

Last month, Evolution announced that it would power Live Casino services for Greentube Alderney Limited, a subsidiary of international gambling company, Novomatic Group. The new commercial agreement makes a complete range of the services available to every customer of Greentube across multiple jurisdictions, to include players in Italy via www.starvegas.it; in Spain via www.starvegas.es; and in the United Kingdom via www.admiralcasino.co.uk.
