Live casino veterans Evolution are no strangers to experimenting outside the box, but their latest creation takes that idea quite literally. Marble Race ditches the wheel, the cards, and even the dice for a colourful downhill dash, offering a simple yet strangely compelling new format where you bet on which marble will reach the finish line first.

With six marbles, two betting modes, and races that run every minute or so, this one leans heavily on spectacle over complexity—so let’s break it down.

Every year, Evolution ups the ante in live casino gaming, and 2025 is no different. Fresh off the back of their wildly ambitious 2024 lineup—which included Lightning Storm and a slew of ‘Lightning’-branded games—the company is now pivoting towards more immersive and unconventional experiences. This year’s batch includes game shows, hybrids of live and RNG mechanics, and some unexpected twists on classic formats. Here’s what’s coming and why it matters.

Pragmatic Play’s Fortune Roulette kicks off 2025 with an innovative twist on the classic roulette format. Building on the foundation of previous multiplier-based games like Mega Roulette and PowerUP Roulette, this January 29 release introduces new mechanics, including a slot-style bonus round and the unique Chest feature. These additions aim to expand the appeal of multiplier roulette while offering something fresh for fans of Pragmatic’s dynamic table games. But how does it stack up to its predecessors? Let’s take a closer look.

Continuing on the subject of simple-mechanic live games, let’s turn to Playtech’s newly-released Busted or Bailed. This one swaps the blackjack table for a high-speed car chase, blending crash-game mechanics with an action-packed theme. It’s fully RNG-driven but it sits in live casino lobbies because it actually has a live presenter aka live news reporter. With fast-paced rounds and straightforward bets, is this game worth a detour—or does it run out of gas? Let’s find out.

Evolution Gaming has added yet another twist to its blackjack repertoire with the release of Easy Blackjack, a game that takes the Infinite Blackjack format in an entirely new direction. While the name suggests simplicity, a closer look reveals a unique—but arguably controversial—take on traditional blackjack. Is this a stroke of genius or a gamble that doesn’t pay off? Let’s dive in.
