The collaboration between Pragmatic Play and Rizk has been further strengthened by delivering bespoke live casino environments through Pragmatic Play’s Smart Studio solution.
Smart Studio allows operators to tailor various elements of Pragmatic Play’s live casino games, such as online baccarat, to match their brand’s identity. This feature enables multiple brands to offer the same game or table with unique customizations that reflect their specific look and feel.
For Rizk, this partnership means they can offer players a variety of popular Pragmatic Play live tables using the Smart Studio solution. These include Auto Mega Roulette, Speed Auto Roulette, and Blackjack X, which will be available across several important regulated markets.
Laszlo Hornyak, the Senior Gaming Operations Manager at Rizk, welcomed the deepened collaboration and the opportunities it will afford players:
“Collaborating with Pragmatic Play to introduce further customised Live Casino titles has been excellent. The new Blackjack and Auto Roulette tables not only enhance our gaming offerings but also align with our commitment to providing exceptional and unique experiences for our customers.”
Irina Cornides, Chief Operating Officer at Pragmatic Play, explained some of the benefits delivered by Smart Studio:
“Customisation in Live Casino is made all the quicker and more cost-effective by Smart Studio, which provides an extensive range of branding options on some of Pragmatic Play’s most popular live tables. We are thrilled to extend our partnership with Betsson by providing its Rizk brand with customised live environments via Smart Studio.”
Earlier this year, Pragmatic Play launched a live casino studio in partnership with Betsson. This studio features eight dedicated blackjack tables and one roulette table designed specifically to reflect the Betsson brand.
In addition, Pragmatic Play expanded its reach in 2023 by going live with NetBet Denmark and partnering with Bplay to support its growth in Brazil.
Good News for Online Bingo Fans
The development of new live dealer technologies and Pragmatic Play’s growing presence in the sector is good news for bingo players. While the company does not have a game called “Live Bingo”, it does offer “Vegas Ball Bonanza”, which is very similar.
The game show is brought to life by Pragmatic Play’s friendly and professional hosts, while the game itself brings together familiar mechanics with an exciting twist.
Players begin by choosing tickets, each displaying a 3×3 grid filled with nine numbers. These numbers need to match those drawn randomly by the game’s tumbling device. Matched numbers form payout patterns, allowing players to collect up to 4 lines or achieve a Full House pattern, which rewards 250 times their stake!
Each game round is full of excitement as players can randomly draw Lucky Numbers that trigger Bonus Multipliers. Additionally, the game’s two Bonus Balls add another layer of fun, the Star Ball activates all Bonus Multipliers simultaneously, while the Wild Ball prompts extra balls to be drawn, extending the round and offering more winning opportunities.
Bingo players should also keep an eye out for Evolution’s Mega Ball. The game combines the familiar mechanics of bingo with the thrill of lottery-style balls.
Players start by setting the value of their cards and purchasing up to 400 per game round. The game features a custom-built ball drawing machine with 51 multi-colored balls. As the balls are drawn, the numbers on the players’ cards are automatically marked off, with cards rearranged to highlight those closest to winning.
Each game round builds excitement as 20 balls are drawn individually. The anticipation peaks when a Mega Ball multiplier between 5x and 100x is generated, transforming the studio lighting and highlighting the key numbers needed for a win. If the Mega Ball completes a line, the player’s winnings are multiplied accordingly. Adding to the thrill, there’s a chance for a second Mega Ball to be drawn, giving players an additional opportunity to multiply their winnings and keep the excitement going.
As online bingo continues to grow in popularity, it is likely that more of these games will appear, providing players with a realistic, social, and immersive experience from the comfort of their own homes.
