Short answer

Why does Evolution matter when you pick a live casino?

Because its games are the largest share of the live games we cover. A casino with Evolution gives you the same core games as other Evolution casinos, such as Lightning Roulette, Crazy Time and Infinite Blackjack. What differs is the casino's choice of tables, its limits, dedicated tables in its own branding and how much live bets count towards a bonus. Compare those rather than the game list.

Evolution FAQ

Where are Evolution's live casino studios?

Evolution lists studios in Latvia, Georgia, Malta, Armenia, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Lithuania, Romania and Spain; in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Connecticut; in British Columbia; in the Philippines; and in Argentina, Brazil and Colombia. Riga is its development and launch hub and Tbilisi its largest studio hub. It also streams Dual Play tables from land-based casinos in the UK, Malta, Romania and the US.

Does Evolution still have a studio in Belgium?

Belgium is no longer on Evolution's list of locations. Its studio at the Casino de Spa opened in 2015 to serve Belgian licence holders.

Who owns Evolution?

Evolution AB is listed on Nasdaq Stockholm under the ticker EVO. It listed on First North Premier in March 2015 and moved to the main market in 2017. In July 2026 Candle Lake, Kenneth Dart's holding company, passed 30% of the shares and had to make a cash offer; Evolution's board advised shareholders to reject it.

Which brands belong to Evolution?

Ezugi (deal agreed in 2018), NetEnt and Red Tiger (2020), Big Time Gaming and Nolimit City. Ezugi still runs its own live tables. NetEnt's live studio closed when the takeover completed in December 2020. The planned purchase of Galaxy Gaming was called off in July 2026.

Are Evolution games the same at every casino?

The game rules are the same, because Evolution runs the tables. Each casino chooses which tables it offers, the limits, and whether it has dedicated tables in its own branding, so two Evolution lobbies can look quite different.
