Cutting-edge live casino studio Animo Studios has unveiled its most ambitious release to date – Stake City Roulette. A first-of-its-kind multiplier roulette gameshow launched exclusively with Stake, the world’s most popular online casino.

Marking a significant milestone in Animo’s mission to redefine live casino entertainment, Stake City Roulette delivers a gameshow-style experience unlike anything currently on the market.

Players can win up to 500x their bet, all presented by Animo’s signature animated dealers inside a fully realised virtual world. Players can even spot billboards featuring Stake co-founder Ed Craven as the “Mayor of Stake City”, with in-scene placements dynamically integrated to reflect Stake’s brand and new initiatives.

The game is the product of Animo Studios’ proprietary technology stack, combining advanced technology, live broadcasting, machine learning and bespoke software to transform human hosts into live-action animated characters in real time. Rather than featuring a rendered simulation or an AI shortcut, games are hosted by a live human being, delivering the energy and authenticity of a real dealer inside a world that has never existed in Live Casino before.
This exclusive launch deepens the partnership between Animo Studios and Stake – both headquartered in Australia – following the initial beta integration and live debut of Animo’s titles in late 2025. Animo Studios was founded by Australian content creator, Fortnite champion and entrepreneur Harley Fresh.

Unique experiences – only on Stake

Harley Fresh, founder of Animo Studios, said: “We’ve built Animo to reimagine how players engage with live casino games, blending real-time entertainment with technology that brings any recognisable characters and interactive environments to life. Features like dynamic in-game content and evolving worlds are only the starting point, Animo demonstrates a level of scalability and flexibility that simply hasn’t existed in Live Casino before.”

“Stake City Roulette is an early example of our technology’s possibilities, we’re here to advance live experiences that push beyond the current limitations of traditional products.”

“Stake’s focus on unique, ‘only on Stake‘ experiences aligns perfectly with our ambition to redefine what live gaming can be. Our partnership allows us to bring that vision to life, and this launch is truly just the beginning of what’s possible with our technology.”

Animo Studios is continuing to set the bar for the Live Casino industry, accelerated by their latest release of the electric Stake City Roulette. With each spin the City comes to life, revealing up to 5 multipliers, reaching up to 500x.

Brais Pena, Chief Strategy Officer at Easygo – Stake’s parent company – said: “We’re constantly looking to push the boundaries of what online casino experiences can look like, and Stake City Roulette is a perfect example of that in action.

“Our partnership with Animo Studios gives us the ability to deliver something genuinely different – not just in terms of gameplay but in how players engage with the product as a form of live entertainment. This is about moving beyond traditional formats and creating experiences that feel immersive, social and uniquely Stake.

“By working with forward-thinking partners like Animo, we’re able to offer our community innovative content they simply won’t find anywhere else, reinforcing our position at the forefront of the industry.”

The partnership significantly expands Tap-A-Roo’s global footprint, opening new jurisdictions across Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe, and Latin America, while diversifying growth opportunities for both QTech and its operator partners.

“Tap-A-Roo’s blend of simplicity and dynamism is resonating strongly with players in emerging markets,” said Philip Doftvik, CEO of QTech Games.
