Evolution introduces Cordish Live Casino offering in Pennsylvania

Live casino specialist Evolution has partnered with Cordish Gaming Group, a subsidiary of Maryland-based casino operator and real estate developer The Cordish Companies. Following this agreement, Evolution will deliver its portfolio of live casino titles, game show-style games, and a first-person range to PlayLive! and his Pennsylvania players. The games will be streamed from the provider's live studio in Philadelphia, which is expected to be available in the second quarter of the year.

The premiere of PlayLife!

The company launched its PlayLive! in August 2020 in association with the European gaming technology company GAN Limited. GAN is based in London, but has primarily focused its efforts on expanding into the US regulated iGaming market. Partnering with several land-based casinos interested in venturing into the digital gaming space in states where online casino gambling is legal.

PlayLive! premiered prior to the opening of The Cordish Companies' two land-based casinos in the Keystone state. The online gaming site of The Cordish Companies is unique as it was launched before the company had land-based venues up and running in the state. The site was allowed to start offering services before Live! Casino Pittsburgh and Live! Casino & Hotel Philadelphia opened.

Live! Casino Pittsburgh opened its doors to players in November 2020, while Live! Casino & Hotel Philadelphia, the second largest casino complex in the city, celebrated its grand opening last January.

PlayLive! is the latest Evolution partner at Keystone State. The provider has partnered with several locally licensed operators since obtaining its own license to supply its content in fall 2019. It partnered with Penn National Gaming shortly after receiving its license from the state Gaming Control Board and, in 2020, it announced a similar deal with Caesars. Entertainment, Inc. Earlier this year, the company also announced a partnership with Parx Casino.

What games does PlayLive! offer?

The new PlayLive! offers more than 100 online slots, including classic titles like Crazy Money and Wheel of Fortune and hit online games like Gonzo's Quest, Starburst and Twin Spin. Additionally, the site features a variety of table games, including blackjack, baccarat, and roulette.

Players will also be able to play various jackpot games, including NetEnt's Divine Fortune, which has become a smash hit in Pennsylvania, where multiple players have hit six-figure jackpots on the popular slot.

Evolution Gaming, a proven leader

Evolution was a good choice for The Cordish Companies as the brand is a proven leader in the live casino gaming industry. The brand already offers services in the United States and will build its presence further in the country once games launch in Pennsylvania.

Joe Billhimer, Executive Vice President of Cordish Gaming Group, said this partnership sets a new standard in best-in-class customer experiences with highly acclaimed gaming, hotel, restaurant and entertainment destinations throughout the Mid-Atlantic region. The main objective in the development of PlayLive! is to present a free online offer that is equally entertaining and attractive to customers. The company has selected Evolution as its strategic online partner because it is confident that the exceptional quality and breadth of its offering will enable them to achieve this goal.

Jeff Millar, Evolution North America Commercial Director, commented that they are excited and proud to be working with Cordish Gaming Group and PlayLive! Casino. Evolution's extensive online casino and entertainment portfolio is ideal for further developing the Live! Online experience.
