Playtech Launches Largest Global Live Casino Facility.
Playtech, a British corporation, has just inaugurated a new live studio in Riga, Latvia's capital. This massive space of 8,500m2 positions it as the world's largest casino studio, according to the company.
The rapidly escalating demand in the online casino sector led Playtech to expand their services. With headquarters in the Isle of Man, UK, they already operate several studios and have become well-known for their live streams. Some of their previous locations include studios in Riga, Spain, Belgium, the Philippines, and Romania. International partners like bet365, Netbet, and William Hill work with the live streams produced at this new site, primarily targeting the European market.
Playtech's significant endeavor takes great strides in the live casino industry. The studio is packed with advanced cameras, enhancing the stream's image quality. There's also a separate training area for grooming new croupiers. The company displayed an interest in its live division, even revamping its game selection with novel variants like "Prestige Baccarat" and switching to HTML5 as the technical foundation for their streams. This ensures that their games are compatible with numerous mobile devices.
In the past few months, Playtech has upgraded its focus on its live division. New offerings like these provide an authentic casino feel as they are no longer purely computerized. The online casino industry is keen on recreating the feel of a live casino experience with a human dealer. The interaction and social component augments the realism of the game. Although bets are still entered on a virtual platform, the live stream heightens the authenticity.
Live games have evolved due to the enhanced accessibility of steady internet connections. Initially, table games like roulette were available simply as software games. These "soft games" mimicked the mechanics of an actual casino through simulated graphics. The online version of slots, however, attracted more attention because of their social component. These allow players to interact with each other and croupiers. The immersive experience of playing these games in real-time is a crucial aspect as well.
Playtech's grand investment underpins the rising interest in the live casino experience. They intend to leverage this studio for introducing the next iteration of live casinos. Weizer, CEO of Playtech, further explains, "'The studio gives us the platform to deliver the next generation of live casino to our customers, and on the other hand, it gives us the flexibility and ability to produce many new and innovative products." While Weizer didn't go into specifics about new games, Playtech wants to maintain a stronghold in the fiercely competitive live gaming market. Key players in this sector include Evolution Gaming, which exclusively focuses on live games, and Microgaming, a renowned game creator that has partnered with Evolution Gaming and directs its clientele towards their streams. Playtech, though, shows no signs of stepping back and surrendering the burgeoning live gaming market to others.
