Evolution Gaming Launches its Latest Game, Lightning Baccarat

Evolution Gaming, one of the most renowned providers of Live Casino games and solutions in the iGaming industry, has launched its latest game, Lightning Baccarat.

Lightning Baccarat combines live play with high-payout RNG multipliers, and the game is a part of Evolution’s presentation of new releases for ICE London 2020.

Same as in standard Live Baccarat, players will try to predict whose hand, the player’s or banker’s, will win by having the value closest to 9. However, what’s different from the traditional varianr is that, after betting time expires a Lightning Round will begin and a lightning effect will strike between one and five random Lightning Cards. Each of these cards is then assigned a random multiplier. In this feature, players must match one of their cards in a winning hand to a Lightning Card to win one of the base level 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x or 8x multiplier payouts.

The new release is the third installment in the developer’s Lightning games edition. This game is a product of the success of Lightning Roulette and Lightning Dice. All three Lightning games are set in a stunning black and gold environment and include random lightning flashes in the user interface which represent high-payout RNG multipliers. Lightning Baccarat is now available across all devices, including desktops, tablets and smartphones.

A Natural Step Forward

Representatives from Evolution Gaming say that Lightning Roulette, which launched two years ago has become one of the biggest game in the company’s history and that launching Lightning Baccarat is a natural next step for their Lightning family.

“Two years ago we launched the multi award winning Lightning Roulette, which has become one of the biggest games in company history. We followed this up with Lightning Dice, which has also been immensely popular. Adding multipliers and our Lightning theme on top of the most traditional game yet, Baccarat, was a natural next step in our Lightning family. Baccarat players love volatility and we are giving them all they can handle with Lightning Baccarat,” said Todd Haushalter, Chief Product Officer.
