Boyd Interactive and Evolution have formed a multi-year amendment to its existing partnership, naming the supplier as Boyd’s exclusive provider of live casino content across its North American iGaming brands.
"Evolution has been an outstanding partner for our business over many years, consistently delivering premium content and a first-class operational experience,” Boyd Interactive CEO Jim Ryan said.
“We look forward to further building our relationship with Evolution as they provide Boyd Interactive with the industry's leading live dealer experiences."
As part of the extended collaboration, players in North America will continue to access Evolution’s live dealer portfolio, including Crazy Time, Lightning Roulette, craps, blackjack, premium roulette and game show experiences.
The multi-year amendment covers StardustCasino.com and ResortsCasino.com in the US and Canadian markets in which either respectfully operates, as well as MoheganSunCasino.com in New Jersey.
Evolution CCO Marcus Huber also spoke on the extended collaboration, having said, "We're delighted to expand our long-standing partnership with Boyd Interactive through this multi-year exclusive agreement.
“It reflects the strength of our relationship and Boyd Interactive's confidence in Evolution's live casino portfolio. We look forward to continuing our close collaboration and delivering world-class live dealer entertainment to players across North America."
In May, Evolution launched its second live dealer studio in Michigan – representing the supplier’s seventh location across the US – helping to expand its North American presence and meet “increasing player demand.”
Evolution’s second live casino studio in Michigan is located in Grand Rapids and currently hosts casino games such as blackjack, roulette and baccarat, as well as live dealer titles.
On the land-based side, Boyd Gaming introduced new race and sportsbook enhancements at its Aliante Casino & Hotel property in North Las Vegas on August 25, featuring a new video wall, upgraded seating and VIP amenities.
