DraftKings launches own-brand live casino studio
New product will run 24/7 and offer New Jersey players blackjack and a new high-speed variety of baccarat
DraftKings has launched its own branded live-casino studio in New Jersey as the operator continues to build out its casino product, EGR can reveal.
The studio, housed in the Hard Rock Casino in Atlantic City, will run 24/7 instead of the 15-hours a day the firm’s current shared offering operates for.
The project, developed in partnership with Evolution Gaming, features six tables, including five blackjack tables and a new variety of baccarat played five times faster than the traditional game, with the cards dealt facing upwards.
The sports-themed offering has space for an additional 35 players to meet the expected demand from players.
DraftKings head of gaming Jason March told EGR: “We have had a lot of demand from customers to expand the service and offer different components, including the promotional aspect of having more fun with the dealers and creating our own brand image.”
