Evolution Gaming has announced a new partnership with Australian sports betting operator PointsBet ahead of its rollout of live casino services in the US market.

Evolution Gaming opened its first US live casino studio in Atlantic City, New Jersey, in August 2018.

The gaming company aims to launch its second studio in Pennsylvania in H2 this year and its third studio in Michigan next year.

Commenting on the new partnership, Seth Young, chief innovation officer for PointsBet, said: “We are thrilled to partner with Evolution Gaming to launch Live Casino technology in US jurisdictions, where we plan to offer our proprietary online casino platform.

“The addition of Evolution Live Casino extends the appeal of PointsBet’s premium product in the rapidly growing US market.”

Sebastian Johannisson, chief commercial officer for Evolution Gaming, said: “Evolution’s Live Casino portfolio offers PointsBet a rich mix of world-leading online Live Casino games including classic table games, online Poker variants that are big favourites with US players, and our new generation of award-winning, record-breaking game show games."

PointsBet is currently operational in New Jersey, Indiana and Iowa, offering both online and land-based sports betting.
