Evolution Launches Ezugi as Second US Live Dealer Brand, Plans Michigan Studio
Evolution announced the introduction of Ezugi as its second live dealer brand in the regulated U.S. market. Ezugi is currently live in New Jersey, streaming content from Evolution’s state-of-the-art studio in Atlantic City. Furthermore, Evolution confirmed plans to expand the Ezugi offering into a new studio facility in Grand Rapids, Michigan. This new studio is scheduled to go live in the first half of 2026.
Expanding Content Portfolio and Player Preference
The addition of Ezugi provides U.S. operators with a wider, more diverse range of live casino content. Evolution and Ezugi deliver a complementary live casino lineup. Evolution provides its world-leading game shows, while Ezugi offers unique localized titles and innovative twists on casino classics.
Jacob Claesson, Chief Executive Officer of North America at Evolution, called the launch an important step in the company’s growth strategy. He noted that Ezugi’s “distinctive portfolio complements Evolution’s world-leading game shows,” enabling operators to deliver a richer gaming experience tailored to U.S. players.
Initial Game Rollout and Future Titles
The initial rollout includes popular titles already proven in other regulated markets. These games are integrated quickly and seamlessly through Evolution’s One Stop Shop (OSS) platform.
Key initial offerings streaming from the New Jersey studio include:
- EZ Baccarat: This title features the unique ‘Panda 8’ and ‘Dragon 7’ side bets, which are well-known among North American land-based casino table games.
- Ultimate Auto Roulette: This game features a visually immersive, chromakey circus-themed environment.
Following this initial launch, Evolution plans to release Revolution Roulette. This variant introduces physical 2x, 3x, and 5x multiplier pockets on the traditional roulette wheel.
The upcoming Michigan studio in Grand Rapids will host a wide range of both Evolution and Ezugi live titles starting in the first half of 2026.
These will include Ezugi’s Ultimate Roulette and 000 Roulette. Ezugi also plans to bring its innovative, RNG-based Marble Race series, featuring five marbles on a custom-built track, to the U.S. market.
