Cinematic casino game specialists return to action with second holiday-themed release

Having already shown players a ghoulishly good time with their Halloween-inspired Real Spooky Roulette, Real Dealer Studios are trading pumpkins for presents this month as they roll out a second seasonal release in Real Christmas Roulette.

Scheduled for launch on 25 November, the new game will provide players with a simulated one-on-one casino experience by using recorded video starring a professional actor. This time, however, the setting will be full of festive cheer as Christmas decorations help infuse the room with holiday spirit.

Produced once more in Real Dealer’s state-of-the-art studio, Real Christmas Roulette will combine the instant-play action of a traditional RNG title with the cinema-quality production values you’d find on a Hollywood film set. The game serves up relevant video after specific in-game events, giving players smooth and seamless gameplay without the noise and delay of a live casino title.

It’s undoubtedly this distinction that has marked Real Dealer Studios out as an increasingly popular alternative to live casino products. This cinematic approach lends itself perfectly to creating games that can be specialised to suit any occasion, as the release of two holiday-themed titles shows.

Given that its video is shot and edited entirely during the game production phase, Real Dealer Studios are able to create tailor-made casino games that can be released without the overheads associated with 24/7 live video streaming. This makes their releases both cost-effective and incredibly customisable, enabling them to provide highly-polished video and audio that can also be localised to meet regional language requirements.
Indeed, the studio have already released three titles for the Spanish-speaking market this year, and their recent focus on holiday-themed games hints at what might be possible in future.

Shane Cotter, Chief Product Officer at Real Dealer Studios, said: “This holiday season, we’re inviting players to cosy up in Real Dealer Studios’ winter log cabin and enjoy another immersive casino experience in Real Christmas Roulette.
“Packed with festive fixtures such as flickering candles and the gentle ringing of sleigh bells, it provides a fantastic way to relax and have a little fun as you wind down at the year’s end.”
