Live dealer games have surged in popularity in legalized states and countries over the past few years. A groundbreaking deal between MGM Resorts and Playtech will now deliver casino games directly from the Las Vegas Strip to international iGaming operators. This new offering, branded as “MGM Live,” will stream live dealer games from the MGM Grand and Bellagio gaming floors. The games will be available for licensing in regulated markets outside the U.S., bringing the excitement of Vegas to a global audience.
MGM Resorts CEO and President Bill Hornbuckle stated, “The launch of this new and exciting live casino offering, in partnership with Playtech and directly from Bellagio and MGM Grand in Las Vegas, furthers our strategic vision to be the world’s premier gaming entertainment company. This collaboration amplifies our commitment to providing unparalleled experiences and expands our global reach to our customers. We believe the content, celebrity talent, and sophisticated gaming experience that we will offer – all from the trusted and highly reputable brands of MGM Resorts – will be unmatched in the industry.”
Enhancing the Online Casino Experience
Currently, players in several legalized states can enjoy live dealer gaming from specialized studios. However, MGM aims to add a touch of Las Vegas glitz to online gaming operators worldwide by streaming the action directly from where Sin City visitors play blackjack or craps. The new casino offerings will include single and double-zero roulette and baccarat games, broadcast live from both casinos. Even more exciting content is planned for the coming months.
“As the partnership evolves, the plan is to broaden the portfolio with exclusive access to a variety of Playtech games, branded TV game shows, celebrity-hosted trivia shows, and the one-of-a-kind entertainment experiences for which Las Vegas and MGM Resorts are known,” the companies noted in a news release.
With this partnership, MGM Resorts and Playtech are set to revolutionize the live casino experience, offering players around the world a chance to experience the thrill of Las Vegas gaming from the comfort of their homes.
