Real Dealer’s new Volcano Roulette Erupts with Innovation

With multiball gameplay, a shifting wheel, a sleek steampunk design and a smoking volcano, the studio’s latest release raises the bar for originality in online roulette.

Cinematic games producer Real Dealer Studios is taking roulette into new territory with a volcano- and steampunk-themed title that brings a fresh mechanic to the casino table.

Launched today, Volcano Roulette is most notable for introducing a one-of-a-kind, multiball mechanic that’s connected to the smoking volcano at the centre of the wheel. During gameplay, the volcano can randomly shoot out one or two extra balls into the round, thereby doubling or tripling the player’s chances of landing a straight-up bet.

When any straight-up bet does land, a special sequence is triggered where the numbers on the wheel drop down, flip over and shift to reveal multipliers. Another lava ball then erupts out onto the spinning wheel to determine the multiplier amount for straight-up bet wins. These multipliers can be as much as 333x and apply to all straight-up bets that have landed. As up to three numbers can hit in any given round, the player could score a triple win.

An equally impressive aspect of the game is the unsurpassed audio-visual quality of its volcanic-steampunk environment. The true-to-life look is thanks to Cinematic RNG, a unique approach to games production that mirrors Hollywood filmmaking. The innovative process, created by Real Dealer Studios, involves producing film-industry quality video footage that’s then integrated into the game’s random number generator-based game framework.

In this case, the video in question was produced using the same cutting-edge effects processes Hollywood studios use when creating high-budget blockbusters. The 3D network of brass pipes, dials and lightbulbs that make up the steampunk setting is photorealistic, surpassing anything found in other online table games.

“With Volcano Roulette, Real Dealer Studios is making a bold departure from the traditional, single-number game, bringing an exciting twist to how roulette is played. Coupling that with the amazing experience that Cinematic RNG can deliver is what makes this game a sure winner”, said Shane Cotter, Chief Product Officer at Real Dealer Studios.

Volcano Roulette is available exclusively from Games Global.

MLB Players Inc., a commercial affiliate of the Major League Baseball Players Association, and OneTeam Partners announced they’ve reached a licensing agreement with PENN Entertainment.

The agreement designates PENN’s sports betting platforms – ESPN BET in the U.S. and theScore BET in Canada – as Officially Licensed Sportsbooks of MLBPI.

PENN now has the rights to use MLB player names, images and likenesses on its sports betting platforms, marketing assets and promotional campaigns.

The deal also includes PENN’s retail sportsbook operations (32 retail sportsbooks at its casino properties, including 19 under the ESPN BET brand).

Last fall, FanDuel and MLBPI reached a similar licensing agreement after the MLB players’ union sued FanDuel and Underdog Fantasy in New York Supreme Court, accusing them of using the names and likeness of ballplayers on their players without permission.

”As baseball season gets underway, we’re excited to offer fans an enhanced betting experience that includes player likenesses, expanded wagering options and a more dynamic product. Partnering with MLB Players Inc. strengthens our connection to the league and its star players and creates additional opportunities to engage fans throughout the season,” said Jason Birney, Vice President of Operations at PENN Interactive.

OneTeam Partners specializes in commercializing group licensing rights for professional athlates, and is a joint venture between the NFL Players Association, MLB Players Association, Women’s National Basketball Players Association, MLS Players Association, and U.S. Women’s National Team Players Association.

“By integrating MLB player rights into PENN Entertainment’s platforms, this partnership brings fans closer to the game while unlocking new business opportunities in sports betting. It highlights the growing influence of players in shaping premium, fan-focused betting experiences while enhancing player NIL rights and widening distribution,” said Frank Arthofer, President of OneTeam Partners.

Caesars Entertainment Inc. announced the launch of its first branded, live dealer studio inside one of its world-class destinations made possible through its partnership with Evolution. The debut of the space inside Tropicana Atlantic City in New Jersey marks the second custom studio made for Caesars live dealer offerings on its online casino platforms following the launch of its first such studio in Pennsylvania earlier this year.

Players 21 and older on Caesars’ online gaming platforms Caesars Palace Online Casino, Horseshoe Online Casino, and Caesars Sportsbook & Casino can now enjoy a live dealer experience on mobile that draws inspiration from table game play at the Las Vegas Strip’s most iconic casino, Caesars Palace.

“The opening of this branded studio at one of our Caesars Rewards destinations introduces the newest addition to our ever-expanding online gaming platforms. We’re always striving to marry the world-class experiences our players enjoy at our destinations with the online casino play they love,” said Matt Sunderland, Senior Vice President and Chief iGaming Officer at Caesars Digital.

The New Jersey studio features five blackjack tables, which includes a VIP-exclusive blackjack table, one baccarat table and one roulette table. The tables feature custom felts with imagery and branding from iconic Caesars destinations on the Las Vegas Strip including Caesars Palace & Horseshoe. The studio also caters to VIP players, much like Caesars Rewards destinations, with a VIP-exclusive blackjack table offering an authentic 1-to-1 live high-limit blackjack experience, that could previously only be found in a physical casino.

“Evolution is thrilled to open a second dedicated Caesars live dealer studio inside Tropicana Atlantic City. This studio was made possible through our close partnership with Caesars. Once fully operational, it will generate approximately two hundred job opportunities in Atlantic City. We’re very proud to see a concrete example of how iGaming helps to create jobs and develop the workforce in our local communities,” said Jacob Claesson, Chief Executive Officer of Evolution North America.

Caesars Palace Online Casino, Horseshoe Online Casino, and Caesars Sportsbook & Casino are available on iOS, Android, and desktop for those 21 and older in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Ontario, and West Virginia. Each platform offers a dynamic online casino experience with a range of unique Caesarsbranded games alongside hundreds of classic land-based casino favorites and core casino game mechanics, including high limit slots, private live dealer tables, linked progressive jackpots, variations of poker and roulette, and more.
