Loto Quebec will soon become the third Canadian provincial gambling monopoly to launch an Evolution Gaming-powered live casino offering.
On Monday, the Stockholm-listed Evolution announced that it had reached a deal to supply online casino services to the Espacejeux.com online gambling site of the state-run gambling monopoly in Canada’s second-most populous province. The offering, which is expected to debut this month, will be available across desktop and mobile platforms.
The new live casino offering will be known locally as ‘Casino en direct’ to cater to the province’s French-speaking majority. It will feature six dedicated tables, five of which will operate using the French language, plus four additional tables from Evolution’s live studio in Vancouver.
Loto Quebec’s online product manager Sovanna Phan said the Crown corporation was “thrilled” to be adding live casino to its digital offering, adding that the addition “fits hands in glove with our click-and-mortar strategy to engage with customers both online and face-to-face at our casinos.”
