Playtech is one of the world's leading gaming content suppliers. It not only develops Random Number Generator based online casino games but also live dealer casino games. Playtech launched its Prestige live casino series last year with Prestige Roulette. Now it has added the second game in the series Prestige Baccarat.

The advantage that Prestige Baccarat will offer over other regular live dealer games is superior game play and a close up view of the action. You can actually get closer than at a land based casino. This is achieved through five strategically placed cameras around the baccarat table that provide the player a dynamic view of the proceedings from different game play angles. The live baccarat experience has been significantly enhanced using features like action replays of winning hands.

The Prestige Baccarat table is set up in a newly designed environment. It offers a custom-designed cloth and backdrop. Baccarat is extremely popular with Chinese players so the Prestige Baccarat backdrop depicts the Chinese symbol for Luck. Another factor that is highlighted is the squeeze ritual of baccarat. This is a practice prevalent in land casinos by which a player can peek at the hand bet on before the cards are turned face up. Incorporating this ritual in Prestige Baccarat adds to the realistic gaming experience. The processes have been re-engineered and enhanced for ease of use. The dealers have been hand-picked for their baccarat skills and native languages to cater to players from different regions.

Prestige Baccarat has been developed by Playtech in close co-operation with licensees using methods like discovery sessions and customer feedback. These were the same techniques employed by Playtech for the HTML5 Roulette and Prestige Roulette. Both games have been a great success with Playtech licensees like Casino Tropez.

Kevin Kilminster, the Head of Innovation at Playtech Live, said, “A great deal of research, development and close co-operation with licensees has gone into what we are confident is the best live Baccarat product on the market. He pointed out that the feedback has been very positive so far and that Prestige Baccarat will go from strength-to-strength. Shimon Akad, the Chief Operating Officer of Playtech also released a statement at the launch of this new live dealer baccarat game. He said, “Prestige Baccarat and the Prestige suite of products mark the beginning of a very exciting journey…” He added that this next generation of live casino games, platform technology and software from Playtech Live will take live casino games to a higher plane of product capability, performance and personalization.
