Online casino content developer NetEnt has taken its range of live casino content live with 888 Holdings under the terms of its latest content-based collaboration.

As a result of the agreement, 888casino is to roll-out NetEnt’s portfolio of live casino games, including Live Roulette and Live Blackjack, as well as its Blitz Blackjack and Perfect Blackjack games.

“We’re very pleased to be signing a new deal with NetEnt Live Casino – one of the world’s finest live casino developers,” said Guy Cohen, 888 Holdings’ senior vice president of B2C

“Live casino has become an important component of our offer, as players seek the best of Las Vegas, Atlantic City, and Monte Carlo wherever they are.”

NetEnt’s presence in the live casino space saw a significant development last month when live casino specialists Evolution Gaming made a move to acquire the firm NetEnt, 

Under the terms of the deal, which was said to be being considered by Netent shareholders, Evolution offered 0.1306 shares for each share in NetEnt, valuing each at SEK 79.93 and all shares in the firm to approximately SEK 19.6bn.

Andres Rengifo, NetEnt live casino director, commented on the latest agreement: “888casino sets a high benchmark for regulated online gaming. At NetEnt Live Casino we are thrilled to provide their players with access to our exciting portfolio of interactive and sophisticated live casino games.

“With multiple camera views, fully customised options, and professional dealers to boot, we are excited by the potential of this partnership.”
