MGM Resorts and Playtech have announced a partnership to offer live casino content to operators in the iGaming industry.
This collaboration will stream live casino games directly from the floors of two of MGM Resorts’ Las Vegas Strip properties: MGM Grand and Bellagio Resort & Casino.
The initial offering will include single and double-zero roulette and baccarat games, broadcast live from the casino floors.
As the partnership evolves, the portfolio will expand to include exclusive access to a variety of Playtech games, branded TV game shows, celebrity-hosted trivia shows and more.
Bill Hornbuckle, MGM Resorts CEO & President, 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.”
Mor Weizer, Playtech CEO, added: “We are thrilled to partner with MGM Resorts, a world-renowned gaming and entertainment brand. This alliance combines the strength of MGM Resorts’ global prestige with Playtech’s extensive international market knowledge and innovative games.
“As a leading technology provider in regulated markets, we are delighted that this partnership is pioneering a new live entertainment category and product offering for players in these regulated territories.”
