Evolution and iSoftBet confirm landmark Romania launch

Evolution Gaming and iSoftBet are to launch the first fully-certified live casino studio in the newly-regulated Romanian market.

Scheduled to go live later this month, the new facility will be based at the Grand Casino Bucharest in the country’s capital.

Punters will be able to access a selection of Evolution’s core games via desktop, tablet and smartphone.

“Obviously, we are very excited to be launching an additional studio and always had the goal of being the first live casino provider certified to go live in this newly regulated market,” Evolution director business development James Stern said.

“With our track record of successfully deploying remote studios in other new jurisdictions such as Spain, Belgium and Italy, we are confident that we can achieve another ‘first-to-market’ success for licensees looking to operate in Romania.”

Nir Elbaz, chief executive of iSoftBet, added: “Expansion in regulated markets is one of our key goals and our licence in Romania with over 60 certified games is a true testament to that.

“Partnering with Evolution will allow us to sell a multi-product offering in the market.”

Earlier this week, Evolution also announced that it is to launch a live casino in partnership with the Hippodrome Casino in London.
