Evolution develops live casino for Belgium’s Napoleon Games

Evolution Gaming has expanded its relationship with Belgian operator Napoleon Games by creating a dedicated live casino at the firm’s new office in Aalst.

Due to go live later this month, the new facility comprises four blackjack tables, a roulette table and a multi-camera ‘Immersive Live Roulette’ table.

The studio will also feature a dedicated area for live promotions and space for future expansion.

Players will be served by a mix of native speaking Flemish- and French-speaking dealers, with the tables to be open eights hours a day.

The launch comes after Napoleon Games last year became one of the first brands to stream live games in the regulated Belgian online gaming market, from the Evolution live casino studio at Casino de Spa.

“Our current online live casino service from Evolution’s Belgian studio is extremely popular, but we also wanted to offer our players a more bespoke offering, aligned with our strong brand,” Napoleon Games chief executive Tom De Clercq said.

“Our new dedicated studio in Aalst allows us to do just that, with players now having the opportunity to strike up the strongest rapport with our dedicated dealers.”

James Stern, director of business development and land-based operations at Evolution, added: “This new live studio — and the scope to add further solutions from the Evolution portfolio — opens up many more convergence opportunities.

“For a company with such a strong brand and player base in both gaming and sports, this is an enormously exciting and forward-looking move.”
