Scientific Games acquires Authentic Gaming

At the moment, the live casino is becoming more and more popular with the players on the Internet. In fact, there is absolutely nothing surprising about this. It's true that it's always a lot of fun to play at a live table with a real live dealer.

It's like playing in a land-based casino without even having to go anywhere. With such a well-deserved success, more and more companies are trying to penetrate this market.

On Wednesday, we learned from a press release that Scientific Games group will also take its first steps in this field by acquiring the famous live gaming software Authentic Gaming.

With the U.S. market in mind

Founded in 1973, Scientific Games is an American company specialized in gambling. It manufactures slot machines for land-based casinos, operates lotteries and offers online games, giving the opportunity to play blackjack online India.

At the moment, it is looking to diversify its offer. That's why it bought the Internet slot machine software Lightning Box last August.

Recently, it also sold part of its lottery business and its sports betting platform OpenBet. So it has quite a bit of cash. This allows it to make an offer to acquire Authentic Gaming. Unfortunately, the terms of this transaction were not disclosed in the press release published on Wednesday.

Nevertheless, we know that with the purchase of this famous software Scientific Games wants to establish itself in the live games sector and targets mainly the American market. To do this, it intends to create new studios in the United States in the future.

A big name in live games

To make a place for itself in the field of live casino, Scientific Games did not choose just any software. Indeed, Authentic Gaming, which made its appearance in 2015, is undoubtedly one of the biggest names on the market today. We have to admit that it has a hell of a lot of know-how in the field, which allows it to be very popular with players on the web.

For a long time, it has specialized exclusively in the queen of casinos. It offers a lot of excellent tables broadcasted live from a studio. Some examples are Blaze Roulette, filmed by several state-of-the-art cameras, Nightclub Roulette with a lounge atmosphere worthy of a nightclub or XL Roulette with added multipliers.

In its game library, there are also tables broadcasted live from a land-based establishment such as Forty Five Kensington in London or Bad Homburg Casino in Germany.

Since last September, Authentic Gaming has also opened up to other classics. It offers MultiPlay Blackjack which does not impose any limitation on the number of players. Soon, it will also release a live baccarat table.
