Evolution Gaming

The world leader in live dealer software, behind Crazy Time, Lightning Roulette and 100+ live tables across Australian-facing casinos.

Evolution Gaming is the dominant live dealer studio worldwide, founded in 2006 in Stockholm and today supplying more than 700 operators. The catalogue spans classic live blackjack, roulette and baccarat tables plus a signature game show category headlined by Crazy Time, Lightning Roulette and Monopoly Live, all streamed in HD from production facilities across Europe and North America.

For Australian players Evolution is the gold standard for live dealer play. Its tables run at the majority of AU-facing offshore casinos and offer the broadest game show portfolio in the industry. Evolution holds licences from the UK Gambling Commission and Malta Gaming Authority — though those licences govern supply to UK and MGA operators, not offshore Curaçao sites accepting Australian players.

Evolution Gaming FAQs

Does Evolution Gaming's UK and Malta licensing protect me when I play from Australia?

Not directly. Evolution holds licences from the UK Gambling Commission and the Malta Gaming Authority, but those licences govern Evolution's B2B supply within UK/MGA-regulated operators — not offshore Curaçao or Anjouan casinos accepting Australian players. If you have a dispute at an AU-facing casino, the resolution route runs through the casino's own licensing authority (usually Curaçao's Gaming Control Board or Kahnawake), not Evolution or its regulators. The practical benefit of Evolution's top-tier licensing to an Aussie player is indirect — it signals the studio meets rigorous fairness and audit standards even though you can't escalate a complaint to UKGC or MGA yourself.

What are Evolution Gaming's most popular live games?

Crazy Time and Lightning Roulette are Evolution's two best-known titles, both belonging to its game show category. Other widely played Evolution games include Monopoly Live, Mega Ball, Funky Time, Crazy Coin Flip, XXXtreme Lightning Roulette, Lightning Blackjack and Football Studio. Game shows are Evolution's signature category and the area where competitors are still catching up.

What is the RTP on Evolution Gaming live games?

Evolution's RTPs span a wide range depending on the game type. Cash or Crash sits at the top at 99.59%. Most live blackjack and baccarat tables run between 98.5% and 99.5%, which is significantly higher than typical pokie RTPs. Game shows like Crazy Time and Monopoly Live sit lower in the 95–96% range due to their bonus-round mechanics. Side Bet City is the lowest in the catalogue at 94.34%.

Can I bet in AUD on Evolution Gaming tables, or do I need another currency?

That's set by the casino operator, not by Evolution. Evolution is a B2B supplier and its tables run in whatever currencies the casino has enabled. At most offshore AU-facing casinos (including SoftSwiss-powered sites like Bitstarz and Boomerang), Evolution tables display AUD alongside EUR and USD. At casinos without AUD support — most Total Affiliates/RTG brands and operators like National Casino — Evolution tables default to USD or EUR even when the game looks localised. Check the casino's cashier currency list before playing to avoid conversion friction on every bet.

Can Australian players access Evolution Gaming tables?

Yes. Evolution is a B2B supplier that licenses its content to casino operators rather than running its own player accounts. Evolution's UK Gambling Commission and Malta Gaming Authority licences only restrict the studio's content within those regulated markets — offshore Curaçao and Anjouan operators that accept Australian players can still license Evolution content for the AU market. The casinos listed above are the ones in our directory currently offering Evolution-powered live dealer tables to Australian players.

About Evolution Gaming

Evolution Gaming launched in 2006 in Stockholm and has grown into the dominant live dealer studio worldwide, supplying more than 700 operators with live blackjack, roulette, baccarat and game show content streamed from studios in Latvia, Malta, Romania, Atlantic City, Pennsylvania and beyond.

Evolution’s competitive moat is its game show category — Crazy Time, Lightning Roulette and Monopoly Live combined a Vegas studio aesthetic with bonus-round mechanics that traditional table games can’t match, and competitors are still catching up. The studio has also acquired NetEnt, Red Tiger and Big Time Gaming, putting it in control of a substantial portion of the modern slot industry on top of its live casino lead.

For Australian players, Evolution-powered tables are the gold standard for live dealer play — high production values, fast streaming, and the broadest game show portfolio in the industry.
