Live dealer gaming provider Evolution Gaming has moved to expand its range of native-speaking services for its customers by building a second live casino production studio.

The new studio in Malta is set to open in the first quarter of 2014, and will house the company’s international dealer teams and add more native-speaking dealer tables, including London Roulette, Venezia Roulette and Svensk Roulette, as well as a growing number of native-speaking tables exclusive to key licencees.

Evolution currently has an office in Malta, alongside bases in London and Italy, and operates 110 live tables streaming online Live Roulette, Blackjack, Baccarat and Casino Hold’em games around the clock from its studio in Latvia’s Riga.

Evolution’s chief operating officer Svante Liljevall said the new venue was opened in order “to meet the incredible level of increased demand from clients for Evolution live tables, and in particular localised Live Casino services.”  

He added that it would add “significant extra capacity, reinforcing our position as Europe’s leading Live Casino B2B service provider and paving the way for continued growth in Europe and in other major new markets.”

Liljevall said the new Malta studio would aid the company’s continuing growth, with investment to improve disaster recovery, business continuity and security services the company provides to its licensees.

Evolution has previously enhanced its offering by launching in-venue studios, including the Ruleta en Vivo facility, located at the Casino Rincon de Pepe in Murcia, Spain.

“It promises to be a truly great facility in a convenient location, so it will make Evolution an even more attractive proposition to licensees and also to the professional dealers we recruit from around the world,” Liljevall added.

The company has also launched branded tables for clients including William Hill, Ladbrokes and Unibet, and is targeting expansion into the US market through a partnership with US gaming supplier SHFL Entertainment.
