Live casino developer Animo Studios has revealed its most ambitious technological project: Stake City Roulette.
Created exclusively for Stake, this first-of-its-kind multiplier roulette gameshow utilizes real-time animation to transform human hosts into digital characters, blending the authenticity of live dealers with the infinite possibilities of a virtual world.
Pushing the Boundaries of Live Entertainment
The title allows players to access potential payouts of up to 500x their stake. Each spin activates the virtual “Stake City,” revealing up to five multipliers. The environment features immersive in-world branding, including billboards of Stake co-founder Ed Craven appearing as the “Mayor of Stake City.”
Harley Fresh, Founder of Animo Studios, explained the philosophy behind the project:
“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… Animo demonstrates a level of scalability and flexibility that simply hasn’t existed in Live Casino before.”
A Human-Animated Hybrid
Powered by a proprietary tech stack involving machine learning and advanced broadcasting, the game ensures human hosts provide the energy and interaction, while their animated avatars allow for “Stake-exclusive” branding that traditional live studios cannot replicate.
Brais Pena, Chief Strategy Officer at Stake’s parent company, Easygo, added:
“Our partnership with Animo Studios gives us the ability to deliver something genuinely different… This is about moving beyond traditional formats and creating experiences that feel immersive, social and uniquely Stake”.
This exclusive launch reinforces Stake’s position as an industry leader in innovative, proprietary content that bridges the gap between gaming and digital entertainment.
